Jefferson, NH - Jefferson Fire Department crews responded to a reported chimney fire on Panorama Drive, dispatching multiple units including Utility 1, Engine 1, Engine 2, and Rescue 1.
Upon arrival, firefighters encountered heavy smoke conditions with a significant volume of fire contained within the chimney. Crews quickly initiated ladder operations to access the roof and began coordinated suppression efforts.
Firefighters successfully extinguished the fire while removing a substantial buildup of debris that had heavily obstructed the chimney, a contributing factor to the intensity of the incident.
The operation required careful coordination to ensure the fire was fully contained and did not extend into the structure.
Through effective teamwork and efficient operations, crews brought the situation under control and cleared the scene after completing overhaul and safety checks.
The incident was resolved without reported injuries, and the residence was successfully protected.
