Ozone Treatment for Fire and Smoke Damage

1/15/2021 (Permalink)

When your home or business suffers any form of fire or smoke damage, it often takes a powerful treatment to remove the unwanted odor from the affected areas.  This is often the case for the removal of nicotine as well as other forms of smoke damage.  This form of damage can reside on many surfaces including on your carpet, furniture, walls, ceilings and even clothing.  This damage can be extremely difficult to remove without the proper smoke restoration equipment.

To eliminate the offensive odors, SERVPRO of Kennett Square/Oxford offers a specialized Ozone treatment in order to fully remove all airborne contaminants and odors in the air, therefore fully leading to a clean and healthy environment.  We recently used this treatment for a home in West Grove after she requested a cleaning to eliminate the cigarette smoke odor in her home.  This treatment can also often be used in cases of severe mold remediation.  

What is Ozone Treatment?

Ozone treatment involves a piece of equipment that traps the air in a home or facility.  It then uses electricity to alter the components of oxygen until they form those of ozone.  The ozone then attaches to the odor in the air and neutralizes it.

The treatment is typically performed for at least a 24 hour time period in order to ensure all signs of smoke odor are gone.  Ozone is hazardous to inhale, therefore no one can be present in the property during the time period that the equipment is being used.

During this process, we also often recommend a duct cleaning since the smoke can enter the system and continue to spread throughout the property.  This process will eliminate further risks to your health.
