Default Re: Fire at Pete's!!!

Thanks fellas...and yes everyone's Ok, only my lad's pet snake didn't make it through the smoke..

The dryer was electric and the pipes and lint were cleaned regularly enough...just that bendable 'slinky' style wire and plastic dryer pipe is the suspected cause as apparently it becomes flammable after years of doing the hot/cold thing?.

I know I've lost a bunch of antiques and memorabilia that was in an antique hoosier cupboard in the laundry area but it's smoke damage that's the big concern?.

Thankfully it's not my garage/shop that went up...no cars in there right now but lots of parts and a dozen or so old factory racing sleds..

I've had a busy week with work and my kids also dealing with insurance people while scrambling with the situation...I'll be spending the weekend going through the house stuff and will know more then what's survived or not?.

Thanks for everyone's concerns...don't forget to go look at your own dryer pipe setups!.

~ Pete
