Chief, I'm allowed. Looks like we did an hour down in the chimney.

00:59
I'm not sure why I set up the whole building.

We'll come across the building when the first guy here.
01:02
Fire in the fire blaze is out, though.
01:04
Are you going to handle alone or you can get anybody else?

There's still smoke coming from the stack, though.
01:07
I don't know why the whole building would be tripped, too.

Clear units on both sides of the stack.

No smoke with no order or two.

But again, I don't know why the whole building trips.
01:17
All right, we've had that issue before.

It seems to be common. Do you think there's anything stuck up in the stack or is it so messing up?

01:27
We're going to check the management room now, and if it's clear, we should be able to get effect.
01:30
But chief confirms we got a strong haze in the boiler room down here, so that's what it was.
01:35
Came all the way down again.
