Location
OH, CUYAHOGA
Narrative
Due to thawing and freezing temperatures, ice accumulated around the service regulator vent from improperly maintained gutters on the apartments at 200 fox hollow drive, mayfield heights, ohio. The property owners stated that they had been aware of the drainage problem. The ice accumulation around the vent caused the service regulator to introduce excessive houseline pressures to the downstream appliances which resulted in an apartment fire. The resulting damages from the fire, along with the water damages from the efforts to extinguish the fire, exceeded the $50,000 reportable incident threshold.
