Firefighters from at least three area companies were called to a residential fire in Warrington Township just after noon Thursday after flames broke out on the roof of a home equipped with solar panels.
The incident was reported at 12:01 p.m. in the 100 block of Equestrian Court, where crews arrived to find visible flames coming from the roof of a two-story Colonial-style home.
Reports from the scene noted the fire was confined to the solar panel system and the ridgeline of the roof, with reports of no immediate extension into the interior of the house.
According to initial reports, the home has 22 solar panels installed across three rows, with the top row of eight panels involved in the fire.
Warrington Fire Company responded to the scene and worked to contain the blaze, assisted by Doylestown Fire and Horsham Fire companies.
No injuries were immediately reported, and further details on the cause of the fire were not available.
