Commercial Fire Damage in Everett Requires Cleaning HVAC Systems

Soot Continually Circulates, Degrading Air Quality

Many businesses in Everett opt to have their HVAC systems cleaned fairly regularly. This maintenance is beneficial and controls dust, microbes, and other contaminants. Commercial fire damage dramatically increases the number of airborne pollutants.

During commercial fire damage restoration of an Everett business, SERVPRO® checks the air for pollutants. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) can linger for extended periods, circulating with mold and soot particles. Because the ducts used by the HVAC system harbor these microscopic particles, our technicians include them when cleaning your shop or factory's interior.

Prompt cleaning of your HVAC system comes with different benefits: 

• Minimal downtime for your business operations,
• Prevention of further damage to HVAC components, and
• Protects air quality.

SERVPRO intervenes as early as possible to keep soot particles and VOCs from damaging equipment, ensuring minimal disruptions to your business operations. Using air scrubbers and cleaning ducts halts odors and reduces surface contamination, decreasing the need for prolonged air cleaning. Cleaner air allows for continuous business operations and discontinued activities to resume quickly. A recently cleaned HVAC system harbors significantly fewer contaminants.

Cleaning decreases the risk of damage to HVAC components, protecting your system from internal harm. VOCs and other by-products of a fire and its smoke can severely affect the internal components of the HVAC system. Removing them protects your system and allows it to provide high-quality air for your business.

Without the contaminant load from fire and smoke by-products within your shop's ventilation system's ducts, the air circulating throughout your business won't contain anything to cause odors or deposit dust. Protecting air quality is vital for any business because it can affect the mood and morale of your employees.
