Melville (11747) is in the Town of Huntington, in West Suffolk, close to Commack, Huntington Station and Nesconset. Unattended cooking and neglected dryer vents account for many of the fires crews are called to clean up.
Smoke travels through ducts and wall cavities, so cleaning usually has to reach the whole house, not just the room where the fire started. Finished basements and attached garages give fire more places to start and spread, and smoke reaches the living space quickly. Panels and wiring from earlier decades were not sized for modern electronics, which is a factor in electrical fires.
For Melville property owners, that means securing the property, cleaning soot and smoke residue thoroughly, and documenting everything for insurance.
