Long heating seasons in Kansas raise fire risk. The NFPA identifies heating equipment as a leading cause of home fires, and furnace puff-backs can send soot through every duct in the house.
Storm-related fires and outages
Severe storms in Kansas cause power outages, and fires from candles, generators, and damaged wiring often follow. Board-up and tarping may be needed for both storm and fire damage on the same property.
Basements after a fire
In Kansas's many homes with basements, firefighting water drains downward and smoke collects below grade, so basements often need water extraction and smoke cleaning even when the fire was upstairs.
