Springfield House Fire Displaces Two (Photo) - 04/26/26

Springfield, OR.  Eugene Springfield Fire responded to a house fire in Springfield early Sunday morning.  Crews were dispatched to reports of a window air conditioning unit on fire at a home in the 1000 block of 21st. Battalion 3 arrived to find fire blowing out a second floor window. Firefighters quickly made an interior attack on the fire containing it to one room while others conducted a search of the home.  

 

There were no injuries reported but two adults and four pets were displaced.  The cause is under investigation. 

 

Science! In the photo with water being sprayed from inside out the window, firefighters are using hydraulic ventilation. The Venturi effect from the high velocity spray quickly removes hot gasses and smoke from the room.
