Great job

Thermal fume dust collector likely on a steel cutting or welding application. Plenty of equipment available to prevent the need for a fire department's involvement. Lincoln should have provided it with their system.

Good work everyone!

Great job!

EXCELLENT WORK!

On May 9 at approximately 11:08pm, the WBFD and our automatic aid partners were dispatched to the 200Block of Saddlebrook Dr in Lower Heidelberg Township for a residential structure fire. Crews found a fire which had started in the wall of an attached garage, and had now spread to the outside of home, traveling vertically towards the second floor. Crews were able to get water on the fire quickly, and also removed siding and other structural components to access the seat and any hidden fire. Damage was limited to the garage area. The fire is currently being investigated by the PA State Police Fire Marshal Division.
