It is incredible how much soot and smoke can get sucked in by a vent in a residential HVAC system during a fire.  Depending on the location of the opening in relation to the fire, a return can circulate the smoke throughout the house causing more damage.  

For this reason a complete cleaning of the duct system is usually required to keep from recirculating airborne smoke and soot throughout the house. Generally a good indicator for if the system needs to be cleaned is by taking a look at the filter.

SERVPRO of Springfield encounters a lot of fires that ended with everyone safely out of the vicinity thanks to smoke detectors that end up looking like this.  

This fire was caused from leaving a candle burning and unattended.

When using candles, we all should practice the following safety tips:

• Always keep matches, lighters, and candles away from children.
• Never leave burning candles unattended.
• Keep combustible materials far away from candles.
• Do not put candles in a location where children or pets could knock them over. Be aware that candles and rambunctious puppies don’t mix.
• Use only nonflammable candleholders that are sturdy and hard to tip over.
• Always trim the wicks before lighting.
• Do not burn a candle all the way down to where it is too close to the holder or container.
• Use flashlights rather than candles when you have a power outage.
