On November 19, 2024, a significant fire broke out at a one-story warehouse located on Church Road in Cahokia Heights, St. Clair County, Illinois, around 11 p.m. The fire quickly spread through the roof of the building, but thanks to the efforts of 45 firefighters, they were able to contain the fire and prevent it from spreading to neighboring structures.

The warehouse, which was used for storage of plywood and tires, suffered extensive damage. Early estimates put the total loss at $1.5 million, which includes both structural damage and the value of the materials destroyed inside the building.

The fire’s cause is still under investigation, but the building’s contents, including large quantities of tires and plywood, likely contributed to the fire’s rapid spread. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and the firefighters were able to extinguish the blaze before it caused even more extensive damage.

For early fire detection, Planck Vision TNC thermal imaging cameras are far superior to traditional systems that can only alert to fire after smoke or flames become visible. TNC cameras provide advanced monitoring of abnormal heat conditions in the environment, detecting fire risks before they escalate.

By identifying these risks early, TNC cameras can help to prevent catastrophic losses such as the one in Cahokia Heights, where valuable materials and a historic building were at risk of total destruction. Early fire detection is key to mitigating property damage and saving lives.
