Cleaning Soot Residue After a Fire Incident 

One of the toughest challenges for the restorers is to remove the smoke and soot particles after a fire damage incident. SERVPRO technicians use four fundamental elements to suspend and remove the residues. 

• Temperature: Heat increases the speed of chemical reactions in cleaning products. SERVPRO technicians select an appropriate temperature depending on the cleaning solution and the material being cleaned. 
• Agitation: SERVPRO technicians use agitation with towels, brushes, air and water pressure, and ultrasonic vibrations to break bonds between the soil and surface. 
• Chemical action: The chemical agents that SERVPRO technicians use work through several chemical reactions with the soot residues and surfaces. 
• Time: The technicians also vary the dwell time of cleaning agents on the affected surface to improve the efficacy.  

Air Filtration Devices in Restorative Cleaning 

Air filtration devices (AFDs) play a crucial role in water damage restoration. The machines have multiple filters, including High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters. SERVPRO technicians use an AFD during the drying process to help control the amount of contamination aerosolized by air movement from the drying equipment. Water extraction and drying are the focal points for restoration.

Leave the restoration of your damaged home or business to SERVPRO and get some fresh air in the amazing Walter B Jacobs Memorial Nature Park or catch a movie at the Cinemark Tinseltown and XD; your home is in good hands.
