The Palisades Fire, older houses and what ash does to fabric

The Palisades Fire started on January 7, 2025 southeast of Palisades Drive in Pacific Palisades. CAL FIRE lists it at 23,448 acres burned in Los Angeles County and 6,845 structures destroyed across its whole footprint. The Fire Department’s zone list names Pacific Palisades and Palisades Highlands as communities with parts inside the City’s Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, which spans most of the city’s hills and mountains.

For homes near the burn areas, Los Angeles County Public Health advises considering having air ducts cleaned to remove ash and soot, and not running the HVAC system until the bulk of the soot and ash has been cleaned up. Sofas, drapes and rugs hold smoke odor in their fibers, and nobody can promise that every trace comes out of a given item. Describe what you have by phone, and the office will say what is realistic.

The housing figures here are federal estimates for the 90272 ZIP code area covering 2020 to 2024, so they describe the community before the fire. They show 79.9 percent of 8,357 occupied homes owner-occupied, 72.9 percent of units as detached houses, 70.2 percent built before 1980 and a median year of 1967. The City’s historic survey says development was most intense in the 1920s and in the postwar boom of the 1950s. Water comes from LADWP, which lists the community in its Western Los Angeles area.

Ducts, fabric and floors after smoke

Air duct cleaning is on the table because the county’s advice names it for homes near the burn areas, although the EPA otherwise recommends duct cleaning only for visible mold, vermin or ducts clogged with dust and debris. Upholstery cleaning and carpet cleaning handle the fabrics and floors that hold ash and odor.

  • Allison C.

    I particularly liked the way the lead cleaner described the PH balance of the solutions that they were using on our carpets. The acidic neutralizing rinse makes sure the floor doesn’t feel crunchy or sticky when it is dry. That extra step means our floors are very silky and totally residue-free.

  • Crystal M.

    My kids have turned the giant living room ottoman into a trampoline and it's forever soiled with imprints. Steam cleaning the hefty cloth removed all the dark grime and restored the original bright blue hue. The furniture which is the focus is clean and the living space appears a lot tidier today.

  • Daniel R.

    Thick outdoor seats were covered in tree algae and bird poop. Power-washings of the tough material killed any dirt from outside. We are pleased to be hosting barbecues from our clean chairs again.

Questions from Pacific Palisades

What does the county advise after ash and soot?
Los Angeles County Public Health advises that homes near the January 2025 burn areas consider having air ducts cleaned to remove ash and soot. Call (844) 966-2005 with questions about ducts, carpet and fabric.
Can smoke odor come out of a sofa or rug?
Nobody can promise it. Fabric holds smoke odor in its fibers, and the outcome depends on the item and how much it took in. Describe the piece to the office, including its fiber and label if you have them.
Is Pacific Palisades in a very high fire hazard zone?
LAFD lists Pacific Palisades and Palisades Highlands among the communities with portions in the City’s zone. Check the current map for your address.
Should the air conditioning stay off until a cleaning?
The county’s guidance is to leave the heating and cooling system off until the bulk of the soot and ash is gone. Ask the office what to do first, and in what order.
My home is being repaired. When should the carpet be cleaned?
After the dustiest work is done, since fresh dust would settle on a clean floor. Tell the office what stage the work has reached and which rooms are finished.
