A late-night house fire destroyed a single-wide mobile home in Ephrata on Sunday, leaving two residents displaced and two dogs unaccounted for. Fire crews were dispatched at approximately 11:08 p.m. to a mobile home located at 630 Basin Street SW, space No. 32, behind the O’Reilly Auto Parts store. According to fire officials, the occupants reported smelling smoke and initially believed their furnace was on fire.

By the time firefighters arrived, roughly 50 percent of the structure was already consumed by flames. Both occupants were able to escape safely, and no injuries were reported. However, two dogs were still unaccounted for following the fire. Firefighters remained on scene until about 2:30 a.m. The home was declared a total loss, and officials confirmed the residents did not have insurance.

An investigation determined the fire did not originate in the furnace, but rather underneath the structure. The blaze is not considered suspicious. Fire officials said a heater or heat tape used to keep pipes from freezing is the suspected cause. Ephrata Fire Department and Grant County Fire District 13 responded to the incident.
