So I go to a regular customer of mine and she has me clean the carpets. Strange thing is the we were there just 4 months ago and the carpets this time were filthy. The reason this is strange is because she is very clean. (no shoes, tidy home)
I ask her about them and she starts showing me a soot problem in her home. Behind the pictures have soot, in her entertainment center there is soot, on the ceiling in places, and of course that is why the carpets were so bad.
She can't find the source of the soot issue. She had an ac guy check the unit. It is a package unit that sits on the roof. The dryer is electric, Her fire place was checked for leaks of any type and it has been summer for a while. She assured me she doesn't burn incense, or candles, or those oil lamps. Water heater is in an outside closet. And home is only 9 years old.
Another odd thing about this soot damage. It concentrates on the drywall where nails are. It doesn't concentrate any area near a hvac vent. It also concentrated in some spots where there was a roof truss above the drywall.
Can any of the restoration people think where soot damage could come from if it not heater, water heater, dryer, or candles?
