Why Smoke in Air Ducts Is a Serious Concern
When smoke enters your air duct system, it can cling to metal, insulation, and filters, causing:
- Persistent smoke odor throughout your home or office
- Airborne soot and toxic residue circulating in the air
- Health risks from inhaling carcinogens and chemical irritants
- Contaminated duct surfaces that support mold and bacteria
Our Fire and Smoke Restoration Process
We follow industry-leading NADCA and IICRC standards for smoke removal in HVAC systems:
- Comprehensive inspection of ducts, vents, coils, and filters
- Sealing off unaffected areas to prevent cross-contamination
- HEPA vacuuming and soot extraction from all accessible ductwork
- Application of odor-neutralizing agents and antimicrobial treatments
- Final air quality testing to ensure restoration success
How Smoke Travels Through Your HVAC System
Smoke and soot particles are light and easily carried by your HVAC’s airflow. Common damage areas include:
Supply and return ductwork
Evaporator coils and blower motors
Air filters, plenums, and registers
Insulated flex ducts (often need full replacement)
