Consequences of Soot and Smoke Damage
Your Smoke Damage and Soot Action Plan
It’s critical to have knowledgeable technicians equipped with gloves, protective clothing, and a gas mask to remove smoke and soot from your home. However, any property owner can help start the restoration process by taking these actions:
- Clean your carpet twice (before and after restoration)
- Set up as many fans as possible
- Dispose of foods that aren’t in airtight containers
- Clean appliances with a good disinfectant
- Prepare to replace all air filters (including the air conditioner)
What Kind of Smoke?
There are multiple types of smoke and soot that a fire produces, and they all impact your property in different ways. These types of smoke and soot include:
Wet Smoke
Wet smoke is the most challenging type of smoke damage to remove. It’s gummy, sticky, and smears easily. It’s caused by a slow-burning, low heat fire and has a strong, lingering odor.
Fuel Oil Soot
This type of smoke damage is caused by furnace puff backs.
Protein Smoke
Protein smoke has a pungent odor and usually discolors paint and varnished structures.
Other Types
Other types of smoke that tend to linger are fingerprint powder, tear gas, and fire extinguisher residue.

Soot and smoke linger long after a fire is put out and embed toxic chemicals in furniture, walls, and carpeting. Contact ProKleen today to start restoring your space from the aftermath of a fire.
