Hotel boiler room fire fills building with smoke

As discussed during the dispatch call, radio traffic describes firefighters and police responding to a boiler room fire in a hotel. Crews report heavy smoke, high heat, and poor visibility in the mechanical and atrium areas. Firefighters work to locate the main fire beneath a boiler, apply water, and set up fans for ventilation while maintenance staff help identify ways to open walls and vent the room. Law enforcement assists with evacuating guests throughout the multi‑story hotel, especially because the fire alarms are apparently not sounding. The situation appears to involve smoke control, water damage mitigation, and cutting utilities while ensuring the building is fully cleared.
