Puff Back - Raynham, MA

What is a puff back...


Puff-backs occurs when soot and oil blow back from the miss-firing of your furnace. It happens mostly to oil burning furnaces but can happen with other heaters as well. Often the combination of soot and petroleum-based oil can damage many of the items in your house. While the soot leaves dark stains, the oil embeds itself into porous materials. Clothe, carpet and other porous materials slowly adsorb the ash. If not treated quickly, the damage can become permanent.


SERVPRO of The Franklin/Walpole specializes in the clean up of your Puff-Back. Our technicians are certified and trained to handle even the toughest of Puff-Backs. SERVPRO of Franklin/Walpole uses a special process to eliminate soot and smoke.


If you think you might have suffered a puff back call SERVPRO of Franklin/Walpole at 508-533-5305 for their advise today.
