Smoke & Fire Damage Kit

Visible soot disappears with the right cleaning. The chemical markers of combustion do not.

Coming soon
What it tests for
  • PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons)
  • Soot / char particulates
  • Combustion VOCs (benzene, naphthalene, toluene)
  • Acid-gas residues (HCl, HF)
  • Aldehydes
Why it matters

Many PAHs are carcinogenic, and fine combustion particulate lodges deep in the lungs. After a fire - even a neighboring or wildfire event - these residues settle into HVAC systems, walls, and soft furnishings and persist long after the smell fades.

Documentation matters for insurance claims and remediation verification: proving residue is gone (or still present) is the difference between a closed claim and an ongoing health hazard.

How to collect your sample

Wipe a measured surface area with the provided pads and/or deploy the air cassette in the affected room, following the included instructions. Seal and return.

How the lab analyzes it

GC-MS quantifies PAHs and combustion VOCs, HPLC measures aldehydes, and microscopy confirms soot/char particulates - together documenting whether combustion byproducts remain after cleaning.

Did you know
  • Smoke residue migrates through a building's HVAC system, contaminating rooms that never saw flame.
  • 'Smoke smell gone' is not the same as 'clean' - odor and carcinogenic residue clear on different timelines.
The Sacred Sampling standard

Laboratory data — not estimates.

Independently operated, with no ties to filter or remediation companies. Every sample is analyzed by an accredited partner laboratory under EPA-referenced methods, with a documented chain of custody — and your data is yours.
