July 16, 2009- Smoke in a basement on Parkway

July 16, 2009- At 14:09 stations 2 & 4 were dispatched to 408 Parkway, Schuylkill Haven Boro, for a smoke condition. The two companies were dispatched at the request of Chief 722 (Sattizahn) already on scene for an investigation, with smoke in the basement. Once the two engine companies arrived on scene, they did an investigation with thermal imaging cameras to try to determine the source of the smoke. It was then determined that the smoke was coming from a coal furnace that the homeowner was trying to re-light. Each company was on scene for roughly 20 minutes.
