ESTEVAN - Estevan firefighters responded to a commercial fire alarm on Saturday.
At about 2 p.m., fire crews were called to a commercial fire alarm for a sprinkler system activation coming from the northeast area of the city. The occupants of the building had safely evacuated upon firefighters' arrival.
In talks with the maintenance staff, it was learned that a sprinkler head activation had occurred inside the air exchange unit for the occupancy's main boiler.
"There were no fire conditions that persisted afterwards. We worked with the maintenance crew to isolate the branch lines, then turned the scene back over to the maintenance staff and crews returned to the fire station at that time," said Estevan Fire Chief Dale Feser.
