Acccording to the OWL website, "The Prince William County Fire Marshal ruled the cause as undetermined with all indications pointing to the engine as a possible cause".

Even though I run out of Station 2, it still hurts to see her like this.

Yes it's the same department, just a different station. We have 3 stations, 2, 12, and 14.

Yeah even though we are one, we still have that friendly rivalry between houses. It keeps things interesting!

Yeah we have that to, although fun, sometimes it seems like they want to be a different company.

Tim,

how come you didn't include the photo of the bussiness end of the unit.

We were told that the fan will raise 17' and revolve 360 degrees if needed, and it also has a connection for water to make a Misting machine.
