DECEMBER, 2007
Subzero Freezer Warehouse
Madison
Firefighters responded to an alarm at
the Subzero Freezer Company to find a blaze about 300 feet
inside the 300,000-square-foot warehouse.
Warehouse fires
can spread quickly because of the large open areas. However,
sprinklers deployed in conjunction with the alarm and helped
to keep the fire under control. The cause of the fire is
undetermined.
"Firefighters were aided by the
sprinkler system in what could have been a big, spreading
fire," said Lori Wirth, fire department spokesperson.
Most
of the firefighters' efforts were spent clearing the smoke
in the warehouse and office area, according to Wirth. All
employees evacuated and nobody was hurt.
