Quick answer
After a fire in Iowa, wait for the fire department to clear the building, protect the property, photograph the damage, call your insurer and call (833) 917-4160. A local company can then explain how soot, smoke and water cleanup will work.
Fire damage in Iowa
Cold winters push heating equipment, chimneys and space heaters, and older housing in some neighborhoods raises electrical and wiring concerns. Wildfire is a smaller concern in much of Iowa, but smoke from distant fires can still travel long distances and reach indoor air.
Nationally, cooler months are the busiest time for house fires. NFPA research for 2013 to 2017 found that November through March accounted for 47 percent of home structure fires, so heating equipment, chimneys and electrical loads deserve attention before winter.
