Ticino Fire Statistics 2023: A Reminder of the Importance of Safety and Ventilation Maintenance

The report on fires in Ticino for 2023 highlights alarming data: a 15% increase in the total number of fires compared to the previous year. In addition to stressing the importance of fire prevention, we want to bring attention to a commonly overlooked issue: cleaning air ducts.

Why is it crucial to clean ventilation ducts after a fire?

Many homeowners and businesses don’t realize that, post-fire, these ducts can become reservoirs of hazardous residues:

• Dust, soot, and other combustible particles can accumulate and pose a serious risk to health and safety
• Flammable residues can accumulate inside the ducts and easily spark new fires
• The presence of soot and other harmful substances can compromise air quality, endangering people’s health
• A blocked ventilation duct can reduce system efficiency, increasing energy costs and reducing comfort

We at Vesta Solutions Sagl recommend regular cleaning and maintenance of ventilation systems, especially after any fire incident. Our team of experts is ready to intervene with the most advanced technologies to ensure your systems are safe and efficient.

Don’t neglect the safety of your home or workplace. Prevention and maintenance are key to avoiding further incidents and ensuring a healthy, safe environment for everyone.
