Located in an inland Nassau community, Uniondale (11553) is a short drive from Hempstead, East Meadow and Garden City. In smaller homes, smoke from one room usually reaches the rest of the house, which makes whole-home cleaning the norm after a fire.
In older tract housing, the usual culprits are cooking fires and aging heating equipment. Heating systems that date back years are still running in many Uniondale basements, and puff-backs from them spread soot well beyond the utility room. Original wiring and electrical panels in many Uniondale homes were sized for mid-century appliance loads, which can strain today's circuits.
For Uniondale property owners, that means securing the property, cleaning soot and smoke residue thoroughly, and documenting everything for insurance.
