fireroom
- n (nautical) chamber or compartment in which the furnaces of a ship are stoked or fired
- I overheard the incident sometime later by a member of the fireroom force who stated that they held hot shovels under the ventilator as the fish came down and flapjacked them .
- The blast passing down the cruiser Pensacola's stacks blew open the boilers' fire doorswhich would have brought death by suffocation to all the fireroom crews.
