But what is the actual cause of the fires? If you examine the incidents, you will find that they are rarely the result of equipment malfunctions but rather something more commonplace and almost entirely preventable. Most fires caused by fuel-burning equipment are the result of maintenance- and installation-related issues. In this webinar, we will be discussing:
