Big Chimney Fire - VOLUNTEERS - DUTCHFIREFIGHTERS - FIRE BRIGADE LUNTEREN.
..... With English subtitles .....
April 25, 2021 a major chimney fire started at a house in Lunteren.
The whole chimney channel is cracked.
To get the fire out of the channel, it was decided to use a Co2 extinguisher.
The Lunteren fire brigade was present with the tank car sprayer and the Ede fire brigade with the aerial platform.

@GTFan8899 2 года назад

If you would try to extinguish a chimney fire with water you would get a steam explosion. Since the fire gets a constant and rapid airflow (chimney effect) the fire burns extremely hot. When you add water to this reaction it instantly vaporizes and therefore multiplies by 1700 in volume. That amount of steam can not escape through the chimney, so it pressurizes inside until the chimney itself gives. By the time the chimney does that you created enough pressure inside to end up with what is as violent as a boiler explosion destroying the whole house and killing everyone in the process.

@realulli 2 года назад

@@GTFan8899 I wonder if blowing in water fog would help. It should act very similar to the CO2 (possibly someone could find a way to mix the two, you'd end up with a fog of very fine ice crystals and very little oxygen). Since the amount of water introduced would be rather limited, the rate at which steam gets created should be much lower, avoiding the explosion. Ideally, the stream of fog would be adjusted that the rate of steam creation matched the outflow rate of the chimney, resulting in the oxygen getting replaced with water vapour and effectively robbing the fire of two of the critical parts: oxygen and heat... (Ok, just the thoughts of a keyboard warrior from Germany... ;-)

@lonnarheaj 2 года назад

@@GTFan8899 You are correct; and the dangerous situation is often made worse when the chimney flue is masonry, which can get hotter and retain more of that heat longer than a sheet metal flue. The last thing you want to do is pump water into a tightly constricted extremely hot space. Doing that seldom ends well.

@martindonoval2162 2 года назад

@@realulli It would be much easier and safer to use a bucket of sand to displace the oxygen. Thats what we used at our last chimney fire in early November. You can just showel it out from the service door afterwards.

Small dropplets are much easier to heat up by the fire than big large dropplets.

Chimney Chains no matter where you're at in the world work damn good.We have Dry Chem we keep in Gallon Bags (Chimney Bombs) we try first before anything cold and wet. Also a good idea is to keep ice cubes handy, after you call 911 throw ice cubes in the woodstove, the steam slowly creates as the ice melts, the slow conversion is safe for the flue liners. Just a idea if you ever find yourself with a chimney fire, may buy you some time.

@matthewbooth9265 2 года назад

Interesting difference between what the dutch do, and what my local fire brigade did at my house, is that here they used a chimney rod with a water jet, to take water directly up to the area it was burning and cool it down. They didn't just blast it with water, but used a hand pump "stirrup pump", to give very controlled squirts of water and the rod was thrust about as they did so to bring down burning material. It worked very well and didn't flood my home etc.

@boustro12 Год назад

I am surprised to see co2 blown from above. A (very) hot flue is a powerful pump where the gases go upward, against the forced downdraft by the co2. I participated in killing such a fire: we removed the stove and injected powder in the flue. The updraft sucked the powder in, distributing it up to the top. Almost instantly, the fire died out. Of course, this leaves you with a dirty flue.

@philyew3617 3 года назад

That looked like it started from a Log Burning stove with the wrong type of wood being burned. It shows how it is important to use the correct wood in these stoves. You cannot just use any old scrap wood, if the wood is maybe Pine or similar, the resin builds up in the chimney and one day it catches light and this happens. Very professional firefighters...

@CAESARbonds 3 года назад

you even can burn crappy wood, but you really hav your chimney inspected and cleand regularly. in some countries, this is mandatory. anyways good job firefighters :-)

@briansmyla8696 3 года назад

It's not the type of wood that's burned, but rather how it is being burned. If you choke off the air, you're going to have incomplete combustion. Incomplete combustion sends tar and other particulates up the chimney. That tar cools and condenses on the walls of the chimney, and builds up a combustible mass of fuel. Then when you add air to the stove to make a hot fire, that heat travels up and ignites that combustible mass that's been condensing over the last few months or years. If you keep a hot fire in the stove that doesn't send a lot of smoke up the chimney, you can avoid this type of problem.

Do you use chimney bomb bags? Not every country uses them. = plastic food bag with dry powder dropped from top of chimney - cover the stove hole first BC powder works much better in the first or second bag, if you have it, then ABC powder for later bags. ABC is better for the tar because it seals it with a covering layer, but BC powder produces more CO2 as a sudden release so BC has better smothering power for first or second bag. If you just have ABC that's OK for all bags. The main advantage is the CO2 is released very close to the fire from the powder compared to a CO2 extinguisher from the bottom. They will not cool the chimney so causes no cooling shock damage. If it hits a partial blockage it smothers air very close to the seat of the fire. Sometimes they are less useful after you have started to use the chain, so you would normally drop a couple of bags down first, then the chain, then more bags if needed. For small fires, before much heat damage has caused, they are a good option because they will not crack the bricks like a CO2 extinguisher can. Thin bags melt and release the powder halfway down, thicker bags tend to go to the bottom and burst there (and powder gets pulled up by airflow), so if you carry both thick and thin you can select where most powder is released. Very hot fires need thicker bags or powder will release too early because bag melts too early and all the powder will blow out of the top. Don't open the bags and pour it down - this doesn't work at all.

@wilsjane 2 года назад

The design of the chimney was ridiculous. I doubt that the horizontal run was original. Without the ability to clean it, small fires would have happened in the past. Every one would have crumbled the lining, allowing it to trap more soot. The final outcome would have been fairly obvious. The firefighters did no damage, but correctly restoring the chimney would have been a different story. The absence of a chimney pot along with smoke and heat damage to the top of the stack paints the true picture. Smoke seeping through the cracked brickwork in the lounge, shows the extent of the deterioration.

ze moeten eigenlijk elk jaar schoorsteen zuiver laten maken anders krijg je dit niet mooie gedaan mannen TOPPERS

@berendt87 3 года назад

Dat moet volgens mij officieel ook. Tenminste, dat wordt met klem geadviseerd. Verzekeraar Univé meldt het volgende op hun site: "Om uw open haard of houtkachel veilig te kunnen gebruiken, is het verstandig om jaarlijks uw schoorsteen te laten vegen. Het is niet verplicht, maar brandschade door een slecht onderhouden schoorsteen wordt niet altijd vergoed door uw verzekering." Met de opmerking dat een schoorsteenbrand als gevolg van een slecht onderhouden schoorsteen (waar het vegen dus onder valt) niet altijd vergoed wordt geeft aan dat het toch ergens ook weer wel een verplichting is. Het is dan wel niet wettelijk verplicht, maar verzekeringstechnisch is het wel verplicht.

How quick did they all turn up at the station wow these guys are awesome

From the looks of the cracks in the masonry I'd guess this wasn't the first chimney fire they've had. Maybe they just got lucky in the past. Also, I'm pretty sure Cleveland Fire Department would just shove a 2 inch hose down there let 'er rip. These guys did a nice job. I have a buddy in Pennsylvania who says their Dept. uses sandwich baggies full of ABC chem to put out chimney fires.

You can move to Lunteren and than you go to the fire station for to register yourself. After the registration you get a fire training for about 2 years¹. After that 2 years you are a firefighter. ¹) that means 1 evening each week at 'school' (at a fire station in your safety region), 1 training with your fire station each week and a lot of self study. There are 4 parts. - firefighting - technical assistance - accident with hazardous substances - accident in and on water You can read this on www.brandweer.nl/brandweernederland/nieuws/2019/infographic-manschap-a (it's in Dutch)

Here in the US, we put fire extinguisher powder in plastic bags and drop them down the chimney. The plastic melts as they drop, and the powder extinguishes the fire.

Handig die hitte camera. Klére... wow @ 9:30... wat een hitte uit die pijp. En 13:11 dat druipende teer, wtf? Ernstig zeg. En die scheurtjes in de schouw, man wat een gevaar voor CO. Het lijkt wel de hoogovens daar binnen / gloeiende stenen. Tjonge tjonge. Goed werk jongens! Trouwens, wat merkten ze, dat het een schoorsteenbrand was? Wij hebben een openhaard, die we niet meer gebruiken. Maar toen we het gebruikten lieten we elk jaar de schoorsteenvegers komen.

Verrassende brand en aan het eind de pannen netjes terug op de plek. Prachtige video.

@Aviertje 3 года назад

At 33:26, the english translation has incorrectly translated the term 'brand meester' into lieutenant. It could be that a position 'brandmeester' exists (not sure about fire brigade ranks) that would be correctly translated into lieutenant, but that is not the term being used here. The meaning here would be 'fire under control' or 'fire mastered'.

Obviously never been near a chimney fire yourself.!! What an absolute over dramatization of what might happen theory.🙈😂😂 Used stirrup pump and rods along with low pressure hose reel applied carefully from roof level satisfactorily without any flooding to extinguish hundreds of fires over 30yrs and none of this fantasy theory ever occured!!?👩‍🚒🚒😉
