Cleaning up Puff Backs!
A puff back can be a serious problem and should not be treated lightly! You may remember an article we wrote about soot damage last year titled "Who Cleans Soot Damage From Gas Fireplaces In Horry County", well this is a different event altogether.
A Puff Back happens when extra fuel builds up in the combustion chamber of your furnace.
The extra built up fuel then explodes the next time your furnace starts up, this explosion can severely damage your furnace and your home. You may hear what seems to be a loud noise (the explosion) followed by noticing dust or soot all over your furniture and or walls. You will probably smell a strong smoke odor as well.
If you have damage relating to soot and or a puff back call SERVPRO right away.
