The National Fire Protection Association studied residential fires for five years. They found:

• On average, over 353,100 fires per year
• $7.2 billion in direct property damage
• Smoke detectors give people extra time to get out of the building
• If the fire is small and contained, a smoke detector gives a person enough time to extinguish the fire

Even in the best-case scenario, a fire can leave a substantial mess on the ceilings and walls. Because smoke and soot travel on the air currents (even when the HVAC system is not turned on), from low area to high areas, from warm to cool, and are attracted to certain materials, homeowners may not find smoke or soot for days or even months.

After a fire, call a company that has experience remediating the damage from fire, smoke, soot, and related damage: SERVPRO of Charlottesville.

Time for Trivia!

One company tried to find an ice cream that would appeal to customers across the world. The company couldn’t discover a flavor that was popular everywhere. The combination of peanut butter and chocolate was popular only in the U.S. In Scandinavia, people suggested salty licorice; everyone else smelled ammonia. In the Middle East, people favored jasmine and saffron, others found those flavors too subtle.
