If the smell is just as strong a day later, soot has likely worked into the drywall and duct system already.
Streaking near air returns means soot circulated through the whole HVAC system, not just the room that burned.
Water from firefighting efforts plus residual heat warps wood fast if drying doesn't start within the first day.

Coughing or headaches that persist inside the home often trace back to fine soot particles still circulating in the air.
Rhode Island, RI insurers typically expect documented mitigation started within a set window, or coverage can get disputed.
