    There are confined fire estimates included in Total Residential, Total Heating and Cooling Equipment, Fireplace,
    Chimney, Chimney Connector, Other, and Total Cooking Equipment categories. These confined fire estimates could
    not be included in the detail lines because NFIRS does not provide information to determine the type of equipment
    and power source. See Table 8a on p. 32 for details.
