Not everyone has the same sensitivity to wildfire smoke, but over all it is a good idea to avoid breathing smoke if you can prevent it. AirNow, a division of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), states that it is important to limit your exposure to smoke. Even more so if you are at increased risk for particle-related health effects.
When it comes to wildfires, residents and business get blanketed with a layer of smoke and soot. Soot can penetrate HVAC systems, even when they are sealed properly, and can be particularly dangerous since it may contain chemicals, acids, metal, and other harmful material that pass through the air. Simply replacing your furnace filters is not sufficient to fight the effects on your indoor air quality due to soot already entering the inside of your HVAC system.
Your best bet to fight unhealthy air and unwanted smells will be to get your air ducts cleaned by a professional. And here at SERVPRO of South Shasta County our qualified professionals can ensure the job gets done right.
