Indoor Air Quality Concerns After a Fire in Ormond Beach Condos

Many condos that you can find along the stretches of Ormond Beach are bunched together, with sometimes multiple units sharing a floor of a multi-level structure. Even with each of these units being a separate property from another, many of the same elements and utilities get shared in the space between the individual properties. Water utilities, gas piping, and sometimes even elements of the HVAC and air duct system can become connected between units. While few property owners would notice this connection, it can become apparent when disasters like fire loss incidents occur. 

Fire damages in your Ormond Beach condo can occur in many stages and levels of severity, and with how quickly these disasters can find a footing in a smaller space like a condominium, effects like smoke, soot, and other airborne contaminants can provide health hazards for those exposed for prolonged periods. Without the right experience and equipment to address fire loss incidents in your condo, it is important to trust our SERVPRO team to arrive quickly with these effective tools and expertise. 

While one of the most significant concerns of condo owners is the high-end construction materials that can become at risk of irreparable damage, there are other effects that you must also consider. With connections like the HVAC system and shared walls for units, effects like indoor air quality threats, smoke damage, and soot can find its way out of your immediate condo and into neighboring residences. 

Fire indoor air quality concerns like carcinogens, contaminants, particulates, debris, and even mold spores can get addressed with the purification equipment in our recovery arsenal. Our SERVPRO team can utilize air scrubbers, hydroxyl generators, and ozone machines to filter affected and compromised air through a HEPA filter to trap particles. 

Working quickly to address indoor air quality threats can reduce the risk of these damages spreading to neighboring properties and prolonging restoration or making these efforts costlier. No matter when disaster strikes, you can count on our SERVPRO of North Daytona Beach / Ormond Beach professionals to make the effects “Like it never even happened.” Give us a call today at (386) 677-9993.
