Behavior of Smoke

A fire loss is very complex because of the uniqueness behavior of the smoke. It’s very important to have trained technicians at the loss location to handle such kind of behavior. DRT Services Inc. knows how; we have taken time to train our technician in handling fire & smoke restoration.

• Smoke has a way of migrating to cooler areas and upper levels of a building structure.
• Smoke always flows through plumbing systems, by using the holes around the pipes to pass through from floor to floor.
• The type of smoke will greatly affect the restoration process.

After the type and amount of smoke is determine, pre-testing on the property is performed by the following method:

• What can be restored versus what can be replaced
