Wildfire Smoke Damage Cleanup in Tucson: what's different here
Wildfires in the Santa Catalina and Rincon Mountains can send smoke and ash into Tucson-area homes, especially in the foothills. Smoke residue settles on surfaces and in HVAC systems.
Cleaning includes HEPA vacuuming, surface cleaning, HVAC filter replacement and odor treatment.
Homes in the Catalina Foothills, Oro Valley and near Mount Lemmon are most exposed, but fine smoke particles travel across the valley. Signs that a home needs professional cleaning include a lingering smoky smell after windows are closed, ash on sills and gray residue on vents and filters. Many homeowners policies cover smoke cleaning even when the fire never reached the property, so document residue with photos before cleaning.
