Call Now (833) 502-4258Heating season fires
Long heating seasons in Alaska raise fire risk. The NFPA identifies heating equipment as a leading cause of home fires, and furnace puff-backs can send soot through every duct in the house.
Wildfire smoke reaching homes
Wildfire smoke in Alaska can enter homes miles from any flames, leaving fine soot and odor in HVAC systems, insulation, and fabrics. The EPA recommends keeping windows closed and using high-efficiency filters during smoke events, and lingering odor afterward usually means residue that needs professional cleaning.
