The Unexpected Consequences of a Fire

While the general assumption is that the worst damages caused by a fire are due to the physical flames and smoke, this isn’t entirely the case. In fact, there are several unexpected forms of destruction that can be caused by a fire that can be both time-consuming and costly to fix. Here are six of the most common unexpected damages that can be caused by even the smallest of fires:

  1. Utility downtime: When a fire breaks out in a building, it can lead to several important utilities being taken offline. Electrical, gas and internet can likely be shut off to avoid any further damage. The length of time that these utilities are down depends on the size and impact of the fire. Oftentimes, these utilities are taken offline as a preventative safety measure. However, a fire can also knock out these utilities for an undetermined period of time.
  2. Flooding: Every business has automatic fire safety procedures. For most buildings, fire suppression sprinklers are installed in the case of an unexpected fire. While these sprinklers can do wonders for fighting the physical fire, they can do damage of their own. If a fire is on a higher level of the building and fire suppression sprinklers are used, this can cause flooding in the lower levels of your building and even leave severe water damage.
  3. Smoke damage: While heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems are imperative to have installed in commercial buildings, they can intensify damage if a fire were to break out. HVAC systems can push fire smoke, which contains acid and a pungent odor, throughout the entire building. Even if a fire breaks out in only one area, the smoke can be transported throughout the entire building and cause damage of its own.
  4. Lost data- Depending on where in an office building a fire breaks out, it can spread to computers and other important data-storing electronic equipment, as well as file cabinets. If the fire spreads to these areas, valuable information can be lost.
  5. Chemical residues: Some commercial buildings have chemical-based fire suppression systems, which are effective at stopping fires, but can cause additional damage. If this system is activated, you will be left with chemical residues that need to be professionally and carefully cleaned.
  6. Asbestos risks- If your building is older and a fire breaks out, you could be at risk from asbestos. Asbestos was a common building material in the past, but has since been labeled as toxic. If your building contains asbestos, a fire could bring asbestos particles into the air, which would lead to restricted building access and potential loss of equipment and furniture within the building.
