An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.
Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.

Maywood, IL insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
