Firefighters tackled a challenging chimney fire, requiring hours of work and special access through the flue.
Fire starts in chimney
The fire began in the chimney of a building, specifically affecting the insulation between the hearth and the flue, covering about 15 meters in length.Challenges of the building's structure
The height of the building and the layout of the surrounding site made it particularly difficult for firefighters from Doubs to access the fire.Unusual method to extinguish the fire
To combat the fire, firefighters had to pass through an opening made in the flue, a method that was not typical for such situations.Extended emergency response
The firefighting operation lasted many hours and required the coordinated effort of around thirty firefighters and eight vehicles.
