Old Town Residents Want to Know
When my smoke alarm went off in the middle of the night, I remember the rush to get everyone out of the house safely. Thankfully everyone was safe, and the fire was contained to one room. SERVPRO® of Centre City/Uptown responds to fire damage emergencies throughout the year in Old Town and we offer these tips from our website on what to do while waiting for help to arrive:
What To Do After A Fire
- Limit movement in the home to prevent soot particles from being embedded into upholstery and carpets
- Keep hands clean so as not to further soil upholstery, walls, and woodwork
- Place clean towels or old linens on rugs, upholstery, and carpet traffic areas
- If electricity is off, empty freezer and refrigerator and prop doors open
- Clean and protect chrome with a light coating of petroleum jelly or oil
- Wash houseplants on both sides of leaves
- Change the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning unit (HVAC) filter.
- Tape double layers of cheesecloth over air registers
