HVAC and Duct Smoke Cleaning in Denver, CO

If the air handler ran at any point during or after the fire, the duct system is contaminated. It pulled smoke from the fire area and pushed it into rooms that were otherwise untouched, and it will keep redistributing odor every time it cycles.

This is the step most commonly skipped, and it is why buildings that were cleaned properly still smell. The rooms were done. The system feeding them was not.

Emberline Restoration addresses the full system in Denver, CO properties: supply and return runs, the plenum, the blower assembly, and the evaporator coil where residue collects and is easy to miss. Flexible duct that has taken heavy soot gets replaced rather than cleaned, because its interior liner will not release residue.

Filters come out and are discarded rather than cleaned. If the system ran with a loaded filter, the filter rack and the housing downstream of it need attention too.

We recommend the system stays off until this work is done. Running it to make the building comfortable moves the contamination further every hour.

How it works

From your call to a clean building

01

Call and secure

Openings boarded and the roof tarped the same night so the building stops taking weather.

02

Identify the residue

Dry soot, wet soot and protein residue need opposite methods. Getting it wrong is permanent.

03

Clean and deodorize

Top down under negative pressure with HEPA filtration, then ductwork, then odor treatment.

04

Document and restore

Photos and scope go to your adjuster, then repairs put the building back.

HVAC And Duct Smoke Cleaning FAQs

Frequently asked questions about HVAC and Duct Smoke Cleaning

Questions we hear most often about HVAC and Duct Smoke Cleaning in Denver, CO.

Talk to a real person
Can I go back in and start cleaning myself?
We would rather you did not, and not only for safety. Wiping soot with a damp cloth drives it into porous surfaces and turns a cleanable wall into a replaceable one. Dry soot and wet soot need opposite methods, and getting it wrong is usually permanent.
Is the water damage covered too?
Suppression water is generally handled as part of the same fire claim rather than as a separate water claim, though policies vary. What matters practically is that drying and soot cleanup run together, since water sitting in a soot loaded building grows mold within a couple of days.
What can actually be saved?
More than people expect on hard goods, less than people hope on soft goods. Hard surfaces, fixtures, most electronics and many textiles are recoverable. Mattresses, upholstered furniture and carpet pad that took heavy smoke usually are not, and repeated cleaning costs more than replacement while leaving the odor.
Do you handle the insurance side?
We document it properly, which is the part that decides claims. Photographs before anything moves, residue type and affected areas by room, equipment logs, and a written scope. We bill many carriers directly. We will not tell you your claim is covered, because that depends on your policy.
Do you work on commercial buildings?
Yes, and we phase it so parts of the building reopen while the heavily affected zones stay under containment. Offices, retail, restaurants, warehouses and multi-unit residential. Restaurant work includes hood and grease duct systems. Call (888) 773-0161.
