Chimney Fire - Stagebridge Road

Wintergreen Fire Department was dispatched for a Chimney Fire on Stagebridge Road off of Route 29 near Lovingston. When units arrived on scene they found heavy grayish/black smoke coming from the chimney. All residents had already evacuated the structure. The house was checked for any extensions and it was determined that any fire was contained to the chimney. Crews on scene extinguished the fire in the wood stove and called for the Ladder Truck to access the roof and chimney. Once the ladder truck arrived on scene the chimney was cleared of debris and the house checked once again for heat and extension. No injuries were reported and all units cleared the scene. Apparatus on scene were Lovingston Fire, Faber Fire, Wintergreen Fire - Tanker 62, Truck 61, and Medic 924.
