Believe it or not the heat is on.

2:00 AM -  West Valley City Fire Department responded to a structure fire at 3309 s Eastcrest road. Crews arrived to find the single wide modular home heavily involved in fire. The home was not occupied and was a unit that was for sale. Cold temperatures and ice formed from the fire hoses and engines posed potential problems, but fortunately there were no injuries at the fire

 Crews quickly attacked the fire keeping it from spreading to nearby homes. The fire was contained and extinguished in about twenty minutes. crew remained on the scene until about 5:00 AM making sure there were no hot spots left. Investigators determined the cause to be a water heater that was left on after the water to the unit was turned off. The home was a complete loss
