An odor that lingers past 24 hours usually means particles have settled deep into porous surfaces, not just the air.
Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.

Soot residue is acidic enough to corrode faucets, hinges, and electronics within about two days if left untreated.

Waiting too long to document damage is one of the more common reasons Hondo, TX fire claims get partially denied.
