Hey (name withheld),

the only thing I think we would see here might be a carbon monoxide detector.
00:15
I can come back to station one and get that if we'd get the gas turned off.
00:21
There was a little explosion in here, but we got the gas turned off. There's no fire.
00:28
Definitely no reason to bring the engine down this road because that road is very rough.
00:35
You want me to bring a thermal imager? What you said.
00:41
Just the carbon.
00:43
Not such detector would be the only thing that we really need.
00:46
There's no evidence of any fire.
