Smoke, soot and odor removal from HVAC systems and ductwork after a fire — so your building’s air is safe to breathe again.
After a fire, the smoke doesn’t stay where it started. Your HVAC system pulls smoke, soot and acrid odor into the ductwork and spreads it through the whole building — and those particles keep recirculating long after the flames are out. Until the air system is cleaned, you’re breathing the fire every time the HVAC runs.
Atlanta Air Experts provides post-fire HVAC and duct restoration: we clean soot and smoke residue from the coils, blower, ducts and registers and neutralize odor at the source — following recognized fire and smoke restoration principles — so your facility’s air is genuinely clean, not just masked.
Soot and smoke film are removed from the full duct interior where they settle and re-aerosolize.
Smoke-coated coils and blower wheels are cleaned so they stop pushing soot and odor through the building.
Pans, plenums and interior surfaces are cleaned of fire residue.
Smoke odor is treated at the source with appropriate methods — not masked with fragrance.
Saturated filters are removed and replaced so the system isn’t re-circulating captured smoke.
We document the work for your insurer and restoration team.
We inspect how far smoke and soot traveled through the HVAC system and ductwork and document the contamination.
The system is isolated under HEPA-filtered negative pressure so disturbed soot can’t re-spread during cleaning.
Ducts, coils, blower, pans and registers are cleaned of soot and smoke film using HEPA vacuuming and surface cleaning.
Smoke odor is treated at the source with appropriate restoration methods so it doesn’t linger or return.
Saturated filters are replaced and we verify clean, odor-free operation, documented for your insurer.
Your HVAC spread the fire’s residue. Smoke and soot are pulled into the ducts and redistributed building-wide. Cleaning the air system is the only way to stop it from recirculating soot and odor into every room, day after day.
Health and re-occupancy. Soot particles and smoke residue are respiratory irritants. A properly cleaned, deodorized air system is part of making a building safe to re-occupy — and it’s part of a complete restoration insurers expect.
We coordinate with your restoration and insurance team and tie into full commercial air duct cleaning. Guidance: U.S. EPA IAQ.
