Smoke & Fire Damage Tips
What to do:
-
If the temperature is above 60 degrees, air out the house to reduce smoke odor.
-
Clean Formica, chrome, porcelain and aluminum fixtures to prevent permanent tarnishing or etching.
-
Discard any open food packages.
-
Change the air filter on your furnace if it uses forced hot air.
-
Tape damp cheesecloth over returns and supply registers to capture loose soot in the air.
What NOT to do:
-
Do not touch anything! Oil from your hands can permeate upholstery, walls and woodwork, causing additional damage.
-
Do not wash walls. Incorrect cleaning could compound the soot residue
