I am in a predicament.

Last night at 2 am my furnace blew a circuit. Our whole house was engulfed in smoke. Luckily, no one was hurt, and nothing was damaged. We do have a slight burnt rubbery smell in the house, but with the windows open it seems to be going away, or I am getting used to it.

ANyway, it's obvious I need my ducts cleaned. The HVAC guy is changing out circuit, and I am still waiting on him.

My question is, would you close tomorrow to get the duct cleaned? I am worried that once the heat is turned on all the smoke and sut will circulate again.

I think I would at the very least call all the parents and tell them the full story and the possibilities of what could happen on Monday. That way they can make their own decision whether to send their kids. I kinda think I'd close though. It'll be MUCH easier on you dealing with the repair without the kiddies around.
