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.

Airborne residue from a fire can keep irritating your lungs well after the flames are out.
Hartville, OH insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
