An fire erupted in the unit of an apartment on Friday morning, and firefighters were dispatched to the scene. The fire sprinkler activated in that unit, eliminating the fire before the fire crews arrived.
Niles Fire Chief Larry Lamb said that there was minor minor smoke and fire damage thanks to the fire sprinkler.
"You can see that the damage is a lot less extensive when we have sprinkler systems in place to protect our occupants." Lamb said.
The fire was caused when the resident of the unit accidentally caught a vinyl shower curtain on fire with a match.
This is great news. Always the thing you want to hear about. I have been looking into getting new sprinklers and I want some I can count on like this. Can you tell me what kind of sprinkler this was? Thanks!
