BEFORE & AFTERS
How Quickly Can a Fire Consume a Home?
In under 30 seconds, a small flame can escalate into a substantial fire, as noted by Ready.gov. Within minutes, thick black smoke can permeate a house or lead to flames engulfing it. It's essential to recognize that in a fire, heat poses a greater threat than flames. Room temperatures can soar from 100 degrees at floor level to a staggering 600 degrees at eye level.
Fire Training Demonstration with the Bismarck Fire Department.
Even though the fire was planned and the Bismarck Fire Department was on site, ready to put out the flames, the damage done was severe. Within minutes, the smoldering turned into fire, and the house filled with black smoke. You can see when the door opens and how rapidly the fire grows.
Arrow Service Team partnered with the Bismarck Fire Department to conduct training on how long a fire took to engulf a small house built by Arrow. It shows just how quickly the smoke turned into flames, and flames turned into this tiny house being destroyed.
The smoke and soot damage the interior so severely that nothing is salvageable. This shows that it is always a good idea to have a fire escape plan, especially if you have small children who have rooms in separate areas of your home.

Experiencing a fire at your home or business can be a frightening and sobering experience. Do you know if it is safe to enter? Is it safe to breathe? What can be saved, and what has to be cleaned? What is insurance going to cover? What do you think about the water damage from the fire department? Where do I start? What did the fire damage? These are questions that a restoration contractor and your insurance adjuster best handle. What makes a contractor a ‘Restoration’ company is that they are certified by the IICRC for the unique knowledge and processes needed to safely and efficiently deal with the aftermath of a loss with fire and smoke damage. Improper treatment by untrained contractors can lead to pervasive odors and structural issues arising in the future. Arrow Service Team has members on staff who are certified in Fire damage and Smoke Restoration, Water damage, Mold damage, Carpet and Upholstery cleaning, and even a Master Textile Restorer—the trusted area leaders in Fire and water damage repair.
