Will All the Odors and Soot Go Away?
Soot and smoke particles are often stubborn, making them a priority for each call we have to help with fire damage in Gatlinburg. Because the soot is acidic by nature, it can lead to corrosion of certain materials, such as metals. Our skilled technicians address harsh soot residue in several ways, including:
- Wet or dry methods help to loosen smoke and soot particles from a variety of surface areas.
- Thermal foggers work to heat up deodorizing agents to form a chemical cloud, which then penetrates the materials and helps pull out odorous particles.
- When there is a substantial amount of smoke residue present on surfaces, we can seal the walls using a special primer. This gets followed up with the final paint color for a flawless finish.
What About the Air in My Home?
Indoor air quality is always essential with a fire restoration job, which is why we employ various filtration tools to pull out particulates from the air within your home. This helps eliminate lingering smoke odors while ensuring that your interior air is safe for inhabitants.
- Air Scrubbers – these powerful tools inhibit microorganism colonization while reducing air particulates.
- Hydroxyl Generators – this equipment deodorizes your interior while filtering and purifying the air with HEPA filtration.
