Carson City Fire responds to house fire caused by space heater Friday morning
Carson City firefighters responded to a report of a non-emergency house fire just after 10 p.m. on Friday morning after a resident called to say her space heater had caught fire.
At the time of the call, the fire was out but she wanted firefighters to check it out to make sure she was no longer in danger.
When using a space heater or air conditioning unit, always make sure the area is free of debris and that nothing is covering the unit that could catch fire or impede airflow in and out of the unit.
Nothing further.
