        "text": "While you can attempt some basic steps like changing HVAC filters and cleaning visible vent registers, fully eliminating smoke smell from air vents is challenging for homeowners. Smoke penetrates deeply into porous materials and coats the interior surfaces of ductwork, making it difficult to reach and thoroughly clean without specialized tools and expertise. DIY methods often only mask the odor temporarily. For complete and lasting removal, especially after a significant fire, professional restoration is generally required to address all affected areas.",
