Lake Zurich firefighters and neighboring departments were dispatched for a house fire at 21395 W Brandon Road in Kildeer at 9:30 PM Wednesday (3/5/25). Firefighters en route could see smoke from several blocks away. They arrived to find heavy fire in a large, four-car garage. The area is without hydrants so the initial response included several tankers. Lake Zurich Engine 4 arrived first and dropped 1000′ of 4″ hose down the dead-end street. They were followed almost immediately by Long Grove Tanker 55 and then Lake Zurich Engine 3 that laid approximately another 500′ of hose to complete the distance to the address. As lines were stretched from Engine 4, Long Grove assisted with a nursing operation and an additional line was deployed from Engine 3. These three units combined brought just under 5,000 gallons of water to the front of the house.

Countryside and Wauconda tankers setup portable dump tanks at the end of the street and the Countryside tanker was used as the draft engine. The alarm was upgraded to a Box Alarm, then a 2nd Alarm, and finally a 3rd Alarm for tankers (tenders) to maintain a sufficient water supply for the companies battling the flames.

Rolling Meadows Quint 15 backed down the long block and setup for an aerial master stream but was not deployed.
