Closely spaced houses mean crews pay attention to shared-wall and adjacent-property concerns when securing a fire-damaged home. The electrical systems in older Westbury houses were designed for far fewer appliances than homes run now, and overloaded circuits are a known fire risk. Heating systems that date back years are still running in many Westbury basements, and puff-backs from them spread soot well beyond the utility room.
