Smoke and Fire Claim Case Study
Fire losses have been known to cause major damages to HVAC systems, both internally and externally. However, smoke and soot may not result in the same impacts. Before settling a claim with reported smoke and fire losses, it’s critical that adjusters verify that smoke or fire caused the HVAC system to malfunction and have an expert determine to what extent.
