Why It Lingers · Unattended Death
An odor that won't leave is trying to tell you something
Decomposition settles into porous materials and HVAC.
Odor after a death isn't just unpleasant — it's a signal.
Decomposition releases gases and particulates that settle into porous materials, soft surfaces, and HVAC systems. They don't leave with an open window or an air freshener.
Removing the source — not masking it — is the only real fix. We restore the air, not just the room.
