Thanks to the attention of a resident, a fire in the roof of an apartment building in Linz was discovered in time on Thursday evening and the fire brigade successfully prevented the fire from spreading to the entire roof structure.
The Linz fire brigade was alerted to a fire in the roof of an apartment building shortly before 7 p.m. For unknown reasons, a fire broke out on the balcony area of the second floor and spread to the roof area.
Difficult to use
The professional fire brigade about the operation: “The first extinguishing attack was launched in the ridge area using a turntable ladder. At the same time, another team gained access to the balcony via the affected apartment and fought the fire there.”
Roof skin was opened
To reach and extinguish the embers, the roof covering was opened with rescue saws and power cutters. After about an hour the operations manager was able to say ‘fire out’.
