Not to brag, but.......

A couple of weeks ago, I left the Post Office and heard a fire truck leave the station house. It went down Main Street and stopped at one of my customers. I drove down Main St, and went into the bar. The exhaust system had caught fire, and the fire suppression did what it was supposed to do and put out the fire. Not even any smoke damage, but the fan wiring burnt, the hood is warped, but no one was hurt. A win win all around! the business will be open until we get a new hood installed. the FM and I talked on the phone, she will allow the use of the appliances and exhaust system until we get a new hood installed. I went in Sunday night and replaced the fire system tank and reset the gas valve. Next Saturday or Sunday I will clean the exhaust system, and the owner can generate some income.
