They were doing massive interior attack. Trying to fight it from the outside at the same time endangers the interior attack teams from the water streams and flying debris it creates. I am curious however after it was confirmed all the crews were out of the building what it took so long to Uniate the outside attack.

Failure to put water on the attic fire is a huge error. You are there to subdue the fire, not let it burn. The men had all the hustle of little old ladies having high tea in the drawing room. Walk a ladder off the truck and stand around? Nobody charging hoses? Bust an attic window in, then spend time coaxing the extension around to position so you can bust another window? With no water ready to go? I am not impressed.

But each department has their own risk assessment they do at each fire some dept will go in while other will just do outside attack. But I agree we were not there and don't know the whole story.

of course you do you are ventilating the structure and the fire is going to follow the air. The best way to save a building is to push the fire back to the direction that it has already burned. Example fire in the back of the house moving torward the front very easy to stop it's advance 1step ventillation fan at front door on and back opened up all heat and smoke and fire is going to be blown back torwards the back where it came from. then do a front a attack to the back fire can't advance in heavy wind blowing it backwards fire will be easier to fight.

Then, one crew walks thru the front door with an attack line- while another crew pounding on back door with a sledge trying to get in: ridiculous lack of coordination. They wait until the AD roof is fully involved before squirting water at it. By then, extension throughout the 3d floor signals total doom for these amateurs. Love how they run around randomly destroying windows-guaranteed lots of air to fuel the fire-no attack line coverages on the B side while they open it up. It’s enough to make a grown man gag and screech. Looks like the NYFD at any Chinese restaurant fire.

When the Fire Department arrived at the scene, they saw the flames were coming from the roof. I feel that they (the firefighters) should have gotten water on the structure first instead of breaking windows, that way the fire wouldn’t have had a chance to spread the way it did. I feel bad for the owners of this house, they must be devastated. This house is well constructed. I also feel too, that the firemen, as soon as they set up their hoses, should put water on the fire right away. That way the structure could be saved. I’m hoping this house could be restored.

People that are old, disabled or have passed out and. Also seams a lot safer for the firefighter that you don`t fall off of it. Also with a basket the firefighters can move the ladder/basket themselves. Explain to me =)

@@johnclyne6350 That's kind of the key here in determining if the house can be saved - how far below the attic area did actual fire damage start or go. If mainly the attic and roof, a good contracting company familiar with older home construction could rebuild the attic/mansard roof structure so that you'd never know it had burned. That would be the easiest part to fix. The smoke and water damage throughout the rest of the house would be another matter altogether. The work and cost to bring the whole house back to pre-fire condition may prove to be too prohibitive for the owners, even with insurance. Guess it will depend on how badly the owners want to restore the historic house. Will be interesting to see what happens...
@shortliner682 жыл бұрын
I read an interesting article about knob and tube wiring awhile back. One thing you do not do if the wiring is still in service is install insulation in areas where the wires run. When this type of wiring was installed it was known to heat up some when in use and purposely run in open spaces where the heat could disperse. The knobs and tubes kept the wiring from making contact with wood structural members. These days, people sometimes start blowing insulation into these spaces to make their old house more energy efficient. Then when the wires heat up there's nowhere for the heat to go except into the surrounding insulation which creates a fire hazard.

Nope. The fire may have been burning for hours before the 911 call was made. It started on the staircase. No one was home and it was reported by someone who was walking by. I imagine the entire interior was gutted before the first call was made. I counted 3 fire departments that were fighting the fire inside the house before the flames reached the outer walls Ultimately 15 towns sent crews to help. I saw two crew changes of those who were inside. Everyone inside has to be rotated out when their air is running low. Typically interior temperatures reach 1,000 F which also limits the amount of time that firefighters can stay inside. Glad they didn't wait for the fire to burn through all the rooms, walls and ceilings before they began pouring water on the fire.

I am very sorry but do you forget one thing. In the U.S.A. they put water supply hydrant at every places but mostly not near places with high fire hazards. So the water way is possible too long, need extra pump supplies and so on.. A second problem is that every fire car, fire apparatus, ladder, squat, battalion chief arrive "up to you". In Europe we use a red train, so that ladder first arrived, then pumper/tanker 1/2, then chief, then ambulance. So they stay correct from first if the emercency centre have all correct information. Our European fire fighter know to cut power, cut gas, aso. and supply fast water hoses with team work, ready-to-work fire fighter (they put all on *before* arrived at scene) and hard structure. Seat place mean what-they-must-do. In the free U.S.A. is all more free. So no homeowner with a hundred years old house not need water supply hydrant on own place - specially in more rural places. Someone talk he go hunting in backyard of this house before - looks for me it is staying very rural in opposite to a house in Chicago. Emercency teams of inside teams are fully equipped but first team change clothes near fire place. They use heavy saw for wood roof but not for doors or window side doors. They put fresh air inside very fast but wonder if the fire then so fast heavy specially if it old dry wood.

@@OldLordSpeedy 15 fire stations responded to this fire. They are all different distances from the fire and have different travel times. In this country it isn't practical to organize the apparatus response as you suggest.

Fire up the deck guns boys
@ianlounsbury15442 жыл бұрын
At least the deck guns put some serious water on the blaze. Look at all the ladders with no hose going up. A good training film on how not to fight a fire in an old house with hundred-year dry wood. What do you suppose the moisture content of that wood was - 8%? Gotta get water on the wood, soak it, or bye-bye house.

You wet down all Visible Burning Material from the outside before you go inside. They opened the roof, or it burned through with no Coordinated water application through the ceiling. 2:15 They could have deck gunned this location and forced water into that space which would have slowed down the combustion caused by the roof being opened. That would not have affected the interior crew at all. 4:50 Now think how easy it would have been to enter the house if there was a key min a Knox Box attached to the building. 5:55 Ventilation without water application is the work of arsons, not firefighters. 7:15 Water, yah think? Water through those windows would not affect the interior Players at all. 8:30 Arsonists, not firefighters. Lawn Statues, not firefighters. 10:00 Lawn Statues, not firefighters. 12:25 When you open the windows in the main, unburned part of the house, you create a Pressure Release Location that allows the fire to move into that area. That's also called Arson. 14:50 Then they become Fountain Statues and destroy the entire house with excessive water. How much water does one spot need before it just penetrates the floors below and destroys everything the fire doesn't? This isn't just a bad USA fire department; it is a TYPICAL USA fire department. These are truly useless humans. The Mayor needs to fire the Chief and all the officers in this department. The owner of this house needs to sue the town.
