Typical response for larger buildings in Seattle it's called a 2 + 1 + 1. Most automatic fire alarms are just an engine and a ladder with the exception of residential which is one engine this is typically a house with an alarm system.
Yea a massive response but reasonable co considering this was sensor activated and not manual pull.

[@hammerlane3871]

not massive by any means, I'm surprised more trucks didn't show up

[@trevormacewan]

For a Fire alarm it kinda is but not really. Standard Automatic Fire Alarms here in Seattle are one engine and one ladder. The time you see an extra engine and a battalion chief is when theirs a water flow activation or a smoke detector. If your house alarm or resendtial fire alarm usually they only send one engine.

Las Vegas, San Francisco, and New York have Massive responses for fire alarms, even when it is false.

[@hammerlane3871]

Not large at all, it's a standard 2+1+1. A large response wound be 3+ engines with 2 chief cars, medical and minimum 2 aerial trucks with at least one rescue unit

[@trevormacewan]

Kinda what I said before an actual fire response where I'm at in Seattle is 5 engines, 3 ladders, 1 Air, multiple aid ambulances, and two to three chiefs of different types. Most fire alarm responses invoke 1 engine and 1 Ladder. I found this 2+1+1 interesting as it wasn't a water flow indication.

Come on fire trucks cafeteria fire alarm goes off

Apparently this happened at the first year college residence hall I live in, last year. Someone had burned steak in the kitchen/common area on the lower floor of the building. I’m pretty sure that individual was fined. I’d feel bad for that person. It was obviously an accident, and someone was probably trying to cook! Many people in these places are just learning how to cook, and so mishaps like these are not uncommon. And yes, the fire department will usually be involved for a minor accident like this. The smoke detector isn’t just hooked up to the panel that controls the loud buzzers and strobes, but that panel is also often monitored, much like a security system, and it automatically sends the fire department, which is why pulling the alarm could get you arrested.

Its called a tiller ladder its like a tracker trailer but there is a firefighter at the back called a tiller man he controls the trailer

Nice college

[@carlsoleii9540]

That is so scary

[@luisamado4983]

Sweet

[@user-dh8tj1tk4n]

nice Q!

[@jamesackley1058]

If the smoke doesn't stop going off in your house, it will automatically call the fire department.

[@dinkydurgandorgan]

not true

[@irishgaming8061]

Don't think that information is very accurate

[@SpartacusColo]

In residential? Even if you have a monitored system, the alarm will go to a monitoring company, and they will tend to just call you, directly. Urban fire departments will not monitor residential alarms and often won't respond to them because of false alarms.

I heard advances

[@sethcreech1014]

Jesus saves

[@hammerlane3871]

Lol wait so they just leave with the alarm still active....

[@NickyVeee]

It could've been the 2nd due engine that was released because there was no hazard. No reason to tie up extra resources on a call if they're not needed.

[@ethancarberry-holt3011]

It's probably a fault maintenance has to fix

[@SpartacusColo]

FD is mainly there to make sure nothing is on fire. Often, if a system fails to reset, Fire will just leave since it isn't their problem. They aren't there to fix faulty fire alarm equipment: that would be the property owner's problem.

Any fire department video with a Toyota battalion chief rig has to have a thumbs down. SMH
