You could see the thick dark gray column of smoke the whole time from my house. This evening at sunset, the sky looked really ugly, dirty gray/brown. I doesn't smell bad, but not quite right either. I had the house closed up, but I have know idea what chemicals we're breathing...We are told it's safe, but how safe can it be? The place was a bomb factory, and he was a hoarder, so it was packed full of who knows what. Re: Burnin' Down the house!

I would be very unhappy about that! Re: Burnin' Down the house!

swimmer, Do you have home air purifiers? I'd wear a mask when leaving the house, also. Hope all turns out well, and that things stabilize chemically around there quickly. Re: Burnin' Down the house!

Really? That doesn't sound plausible. Can you stay at a friends for a few days (preferably one not near the fire)? That's what I have to do when they spray for pests. It helps. Re: Burnin' Down the house!

Date: December 10, 2010 04:55PM 1,500, 1,800 is the average ignition temp for most dangerous materials used in explosives, once they burn off, they shouldnt be a danger anymore, and MOST chemicals used for explosives do not produce allot of toxic gasses, id be more concerned with what that house was built with burning than the explosives (unless he had any heavy metal oxides, or teflon oxide, but thats unlikely.) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oh, mirror in the sky What is love? Can the child within my heart rise above? Can I sail through the changing ocean tides? Can I handle the seasons of my life? Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
