Ah The Place Where It All Began See the door on water heater blown open? Because the builder never had proper ventilation for the utility room there was a lack of oxygen that then caused a Backdraft from the hot water heater. This is turn is what started the whole fire. The force of the gas igniting after an oxygen source fed the smoldering pilot light caused the flames to exploded from the bottom of the water heater, much like a thruster on a jet, and the flames quickly caught everything on the floor around that area to catch fire and then the flames and fire just spread across the utility room floor. |

This was at one point the well tank. You can see more of the damage done by the blowout from the water heater. Notice the intense heat damage on the sheet rock walls. The fire was so hot that items in my office (adjacent to the utility room) melted, as did fire detectors in the hallway and a shower unit in our master bedroom bath which was above the stairwell area. |

There used to be shelves here, the intense heat melted them. |
