FIRE DAMAGE GOES BEYOND BURNING ITEMS
- Ash and smoke can continue to cause damage and corrosion to materials if they are left behind
- Odors from smoke will stay on surfaces long after the fire and continue to cause problems if they are not removed
- Within minutes, walls, equipment, surfaces and other areas can be discolored
- Smoke causes etching in glass and will tarnish metal quickly
