Merrick (11566) is one of the communities on the South Shore; neighboring areas include Bellmore, Freeport and Wantagh. Salt air and moisture accelerate corrosion on electrical components, which can contribute to shorts and electrical fires.
Rebuilding after storms left many Merrick homes with new sections joined to older ones, and mixed wiring ages are a fire consideration. Emergency board-up is urgent near the coast, where weather can turn a fire loss into a water loss. After the fire is out, water used to put it out frequently causes more damage than the flames, so drying and smoke cleaning go together.
Knowing these local conditions helps crews in Merrick plan cleaning and protect what can be saved.
