After The Fire: Cleaning Your HVAC Unit
9/2/2021 (Permalink)
A fire emergency alone is stressful, but the resulting damage to your residential or commercial property can cause even more of a headache. When looking to implement fire damage restoration services, it is important to address damage to structure and personal belongings or contents as well as behind-the-scenes components of your home or business. One such component is your property’s HVAC system, which can exacerbate fire damage if it is not properly cleaned after a fire. Facilitating the flow of air throughout your property, HVAC units can pick up smoke and soot residue from fires and transport it to other locations in your business or home, which increases human health effects. Wondering what SERVPRO can do to help after a fire of any size? Our Fire Damage Restoration and Air Ducts and HVAC Cleaning services are just what your property needs to make a full recovery.
When Should HVAC Cleaning Be Implemented?
Fires that are moderate to heavy in terms of severity often produce the highest amounts of smoke and soot residue and therefore, these types of fires frequently require HVAC cleaning. Another factor to consider when determining whether HVAC cleaning is necessary is the proximity of the fire to your property’s HVAC unit. It is beneficial to contact a professional specializing in fire damage and HVAC cleaning who can provide a reliable assessment of your property’s unique damage situation and its subsequent needs. By calling SERVPRO of Metro Pittsburgh East, both fire damage restoration experts and HVAC cleaning specialists will work to ensure that your home or business receives the help that it needs.
HVAC Cleaning Reduces Health Effects
While fires cause visible damage to personal belongings and the structures of properties, they can also create invisible dangerous health effects to which people living or working in the affected home or business can be exposed. HVAC cleaning after a fire minimizes these risks and helps protect individuals from serious health effects and reactions to poor air quality.
