Types of Smoke

The first step at a fire scene is to calm the fears of those affected. Next, we test the smoke to see which type of fire took place.

• Wet Smoke - Low heat, smoldering, pungent odor, sticky, smeary. Also known as "Smoke webs," these are more difficult to clean.
• Dry Smoke - Fast burning at high temperatures.
• Protein - Virtually invisible, discolors paints and varnishes. Extreme pungent odor.
• Fuel Oil Soot - Furnace puff backs cause fuel oil soot.
• Other Types - Tear gas, fingerprint powder, and fire extinguisher residue are other types.
