Smoke odor spreading between units through shared attics
Why it happens here
Calle Coruna condos share attics, and most attics are not sealed between units. When a fire happens, smoke rises into the attic and moves horizontally into neighboring units. The odor settles into insulation and lumber, which act like sponges.
Our approach
We inspect shared attics with thermal imaging cameras, set up air scrubbers in each affected unit, and run hydroxyl generators to neutralize odor. We also treat insulation and framing with odor-blocking sealant so the smell does not return.
