An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.
Dark residue collecting near vents is a sign your ductwork carried soot into rooms nowhere near the fire.
Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.
Untreated smoke residue starts pitting metal surfaces surprisingly fast — often inside 48 hours.
