At 16:36 Baden and surrounding companies were alerted for a reported house fire in the 19300 block of Aquasco Road. Pumper-Tanker 36, Tanker 36, Chief 36, and Deputy Chief 36 running as Battalion Chief 7 responded. Upon arrival they found a 2 story farm house with nothing evident. The crew from the Pumper-Tanker investigated and found an issue with the electrical panel with no active fire. The assignment was placed in service and the units cleared within minutes of arrival.

While investigating, the Pumper-Tanker crew discovered the house was without a smoke detector. One was provided and installed free of charge. Please remember to check your smoke detector batteries twice a year and ensure every floor of your home has a smoke detector.
