There was a pretty big fire just south of town and things escalated very quickly.
- The fire started in a residential home when the furnace became engulfed in flames.
The fire quickly spread to the neighbor’s house, because there was a wood structure practically connecting the two properties. I got called after the fire to clean up all of the mess. I work for a company that handles heating, ventilation, and AC repairs. We also handle plumbing and mold remediation work. Oftentimes these jobs go hand and hand. When you have a full-service operation, you can handle any problem that comes in the way and that means that our customers can count on us for a number of different services. The insurance company assigned me to one of the properties. I got to work as soon as I entered the building. It smelled of smoked drastically and most things were still covered with soot or a watery mess. I removed all of the soot from the heating and cooling system including sanitizing and cleaning all of the air vents and ductwork. When I left the place, it smelled better and could have been rented. If they get rid of all of the junk and damage from the fire, I honestly don’t think they will have any problem renting out the house to someone else. The fire didn’t take the whole building and I felt certain that the insurance company was going to cover all of the damages since they sent me out there to clean up the heating and AC system.
