THANK YOU AGAIN TO OUR ALL VOLUNTEER CROTON FIRE DEPARTMENT--AND THE MONTROSE VAFD AS WELL

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON. 

THANK YOU AGAIN TO OUR ALL VOLUNTEER CROTON FIRE DEPARTMENT

At about 8:30 this morning we were dispatched to the Chase Bank in Croton Commons for an odor of gas - a situation we also responded to last Thursday.Units arrived to find a noticeable odor of gas in the bank and began investigating the source with Con Edison. An extra Engine Company from the Montrose VAFD was called to assist as well.

The source was isolated to the HVAC system and turned off pending repairs. Members secured a positive water source, stretched a precautionary hose line and used 3 large fans to ventilate the building. 15 CFD members as well as the crew from VAFD E225 operated for nearly 90 minutes.
