Nashville Smoke & Fire Damaged Buildings Rely on SERVPRO for Air Duct Cleaning

A fire in your Nashville home or business can leave you with widespread damages to face. While many of these are blatant and easy to see, some of the effects from the fire might not be so obvious. For example, the ductwork for your air circulation system likely collected substantial amounts of dirt, debris, odors, and soot while the fire continued to rage inside your property.

While you want to choose professional restoration that can handle all of the facets of restoring the damage to your Nashville home, choosing a team proficient in air duct cleaning can also be to your benefit. That is what makes SERVPRO such a wise decision for anyone who has to deal with the harsh effects of a recent fire in their house. Our team of certified technicians can respond quickly and help you overcome any of these damages.

Understanding that the ductwork can often get a considerable amount of damage with a widespread fire, these areas are often part of the initial inspection conducted by our project manager and estimator. The combusted residue is typically acidic and can corrode these conduits if not dealt with quickly. The components of the entire HVAC system can be damaged. Once restoration begins, cleaning out this network of sheet metal, insulated flex, or square fiberboard is instrumental in restoring your home to preloss condition.

Using sophisticated equipment like our spinning brush tool, we can break loose any of the caked debris or soot on the walls of the ducts. Once this brushing ends, we can turn our attention to vacuuming out the area. The heavy-duty vacuums our SERVPRO professionals use are equipped with HEPA filters to catch airborne debris, dirt, and soot. For thorough cleaning of the area, these filters often require getting changed multiple times. Restoring the IAQ indoor air quality to healthful levels is paramount to securing a safe and hazard-free living space.

Deodorization is a critical part of fire restoration as a whole and is one of the final steps towards a completed job. Thermal fogging equipment often gets chosen for this process. SERVPRO has specially formulated deodorizing and sanitizing products for finalization of the service.

Whether the fire damage was widespread or not, your ductwork in your home or business shows signs of the incident. To keep this soot and debris from floating around the house, choose professional air duct cleaning from our SERVPRO of South Nashville technicians.
