Around 1:30, crews were sent to another outdoor fire on Cottage Lane where the flames were spreading up the backside of a home.
The fire was eventually knocked down and firefighters determined it ignited when some plants near a pellet stove exhaust pipe caught fire.
No injuries were reported at either scene.
