How Does SERVPRO Carry Out Fire and Smoke Restoration in Milton Eateries? 

Restaurant fires are one of the most common commercial fire disasters reported every year. Even a minor fire can be quite destructive and temporarily put the restaurant out of business. Hiring professionals like SERVPRO for fire and smoke restoration of your Milton establishment can minimize downtime.   

One of the toughest challenges for SERVPRO technicians during your Milton restaurant's fire and smoke restoration is getting rid of the odor. Fires originating in the kitchen often involve burning organic material like protein, which can create a lingering odor long after the fire is put out. SERVPRO technicians use several deodorizing techniques to combat such odors. 

What are Pairing Agents That SERVPRO Techs Use During Smoke Remediation of Milton Commercial Spaces? 

Pairing agents are chemical deodorizers that combine with (or pair with) the odor-causing particle and render it odorless. SERVPRO techs use two different types of pairing agents during deodorizing commercial establishments-

• A humectant: It is a highly absorbent material that can combine with airborne odor particles and cause them to precipitate onto surfaces. Once they precipitate, SERVPRO techs can wipe them off. Wet foggers are used to dispense such deodorizing agents. 
• A counteractant: It is a material that chemically combines with an odor-causing particle and changes its chemical properties, making it odorless. Such deodorants can also destroy odor-causing bacteria. Thermal fogging is often used to apply such types of chemicals. 

That said, pairing agents are not the only deodorizing agents that SERVPRO techs use. We also use masking agents, enzyme digesters, oxidizing agents, and air purification systems to combat smoke odors in commercial properties.
