Liberty Hose Co. No. 2 - Incident Detail #3604

Company 22 and 23 dispatched class one to 224 North street in Lykens for a report of a water heater sparking. Chief 22 went enroute and on arrival at a 1 story 14 foot by 72 foot modular structure there was nothing showing from the exterior. Going inside to investigate found the water heater in a back bedroom charred and the home owner had shut the breaker off to it. Engine 22 responded with 5 and Tower 22 with 3. Company 23 was placed in service. The Engine accessed the scene by way of Edward to North and The Tower went Division to North with both on side A. The crew took a can and a thermal camera inside and found no extension. There was a slight haze inside so a fan was pulled from the Tower and vented the structure. After clearing out the interior the property was turned back over to the owner and the Company went available.
