Property fire

Crews attended an incident involving a fire in a grain silo on a farm. On arrival, crews assisted the farmer draining the grain, and then used 2 breathing apparatus and 1 hose reel jet from the top of the silo.

On arrival of the hydraulic platform which was set up, crews removed access panels from the silo to gain access to the fire. Further equipment used to put the fire out included 1 main jet and a thermal imaging camera. The cause of the fire was accidental, and some wheat was damaged. Duty of care was left with the farmer.
