i saw something here that i was confused by. when you tested the smoke detector in the basement it took a large amount of fog for the alarm to go off? in england even a piece of paper causes the alarm to activate
I went to a Christmas party at a zoo back in December of 2017. The party involved a fog machine. And what it did was trip the fire alarm system and the fire department came!! The alarms at that location were the SpectrAlert Classics.
Dale Nuss i am definitely taking an extended break from youtube, not sure for how much longer. In terms of filming in the location in this video, it will not happen again
tornadofreak1994 ah Ok, you must’ve moved. When you move it’s kind of a pain to put a system like this back up. Are you still working as a fire alarm tech?
My high school has the exact same voice message. We recently got a new high school, and they installed speaker strobes instead of horns which I'm so grateful for. I think it's the spectralert advance L series something something, not good with alarm names. The voice in the message sounds the exact same, however it states: "A fire emergency has been reported in the building. While this report is being verified, please leave the building. Use the stairways only, do not use the elevators." I guess they make a variety of messages for each fire alarm system?
@@tor94 I know this was from a while ago however where do you find all the links for the speaker strobes, specifically the one in this video as I like the voice on this message played in your video. I know several companies have them for download on their website, is that where you got this one?
I do not work for SimplexGrinnell any more, and dont see it happening in the foreseeable future. So there probably wont be any more fire inspection vids.
When the warranty on the system runs out after it was originally installed then the alarm company who currently holds the contract with the town, city, county, or state can test them as well as make repairs. That's why you see videos on here where the panel is Simplex but there might be a spectrAlert classic, Wheelock AS, or something else sprinkled in to replace dead devices.
Yes! Also, there are 2 Notification Appliance Circuits (NAC). At the time, the horn strobes were one one NAC in the basement with the FACP and the remote was on the second. The voice evac was controlled by a addressable relay module or relay within the panel.
Me myself, I would have put a slightly higher value heat detector in the attic since attics get hot in the summer but just saying. Keep up the good work man 💪
I see a lot people having commercial fire alarm systems installed in their houses here on UA-cam a lot and honestly, I think its really cool. My only question is what do they plan to do with it if they move out?
To answer your question, I completely removed the fire alarm system and made sure the origional home security/fire system was returned to its origional configuration
Hahahaha I guess the fire alarm system has a smoke detectors in it. all my rooms have a smoke detectors accept for the kitchen, the living room, my bathrooms, and my laundry room doesn't have smoke detectors.

2:18 Why is the SpectrAlert Classic mounted on the ceiling?
I love fire alarms! I watch fire alarm videos alot!! 🚨🚨🚨🔥🧯
Haha me too !😅
I like them, especially when there is a real fire
me too but not anymore
Me to like my family is like why do you like it 😂
I love them too
There is a ST315 smoke detector in the mini panel area.
sus alarm from among us
I love your videos
@@shawnagonzales2854 Thank you 🙂
@@tor94Will you ever come back?
@@mtgau2000 maybe one day 🙂
the alarm is detecting fog
0:57 That is the SD355T. T stands for "Thermal", because it also has a fixed heat detector built in.
Om
Why did you put wall mounts on the ceiling
If they were Addressable smoke detectors, how come the LEDs on it didn't flash green when normal?
Rodj not all addressable devices blink green...
734565
Green LED light only for notifier smoke detector
Should the smoke alarm go off too at down stairs?
Sounds like the fire drills I used to have at school
Sonds like the ones we have I hate them
i saw something here that i was confused by. when you tested the smoke detector in the basement it took a large amount of fog for the alarm to go off? in england even a piece of paper causes the alarm to activate
piece of paper on fire that is
That is my old school's 🚬🚨!
Was that Nest Protect Smoke/Carbon Monoxide detector as expensive as every other Nest Protect I've seen?
Exit 911 Yes.

I went to a Christmas party at a zoo back in December of 2017. The party involved a fog machine. And what it did was trip the fire alarm system and the fire department came!! The alarms at that location were the SpectrAlert Classics.
I what to my clown party and pennywise was at my party when the fire alarms what off at my clown party too boy named Dylan and Josh and Kyle
Splitting hairs here but that spectralert is not listed for ceiling use.
humble rc oh I know lol
That was a sd355t (t stands for thermal)there* but why 2 in the same spot next to each other? And i mean the nest protect.
A stand alone smoke detector was there originally and the other, connected to the alarm, was added during a renovation
@@tor94 oh
Are you going to make more videos?
Dale Nuss i am definitely taking an extended break from youtube, not sure for how much longer. In terms of filming in the location in this video, it will not happen again

Dale Nuss I did move. Graduated about a year ago and moved out. Now I work as an electrical engineer
tornadofreak1994 ah ok!
Where did you get that smoke and fog machine? I want one.
around Halloween at Target
tornadofreak1994 how much?
Dont remember. Have had it for at least 6-7 years

@@stillmoon145 lol
May I ask what type of message that is for the speaker strobe? Is there a specific audio link to it?
Its one of the generic Potter voice messages, I think... Cant find a link to it anymore. They dont manufacture the PVE-802 anymore.
My high school has the exact same voice message. We recently got a new high school, and they installed speaker strobes instead of horns which I'm so grateful for. I think it's the spectralert advance L series something something, not good with alarm names.

@@EncryptingJava Yes they do! You can also install custom messages, which are situational based on where the system is installed

Your puppy is so cute what's his name and what breed is he
I like nest protect.
I Love your puppy❤❤❤😊😊😅
I had a fire drill that alarm is the same sound at my school3:17
Looking forward too
System Sensor is the preferable option to me
My question is, how did you get that installed in the house? 😫
Et5
Fire alarm sussy baka
Please show a smoke detector in the attic.
Are you going to do any more fire inspections
I do not work for SimplexGrinnell any more, and dont see it happening in the foreseeable future. So there probably wont be any more fire inspection vids.
tornadofreak1994 Well why were there Siemens and other types of panels on your inspections
Zachary Nicolaou Simplex tests non simplex devices as well.
We tested a lot of both.
When the warranty on the system runs out after it was originally installed then the alarm company who currently holds the contract with the town, city, county, or state can test them as well as make repairs. That's why you see videos on here where the panel is Simplex but there might be a spectrAlert classic, Wheelock AS, or something else sprinkled in to replace dead devices.
why do u have a spectralert classic on the ceiling thats not up to code
Because I didn't care if it was to code and was not going to damage walls to make it happen.
@@tor94 r/whoosh lol it was a joke
@@canadianalarmsandsuch1446 please be quiet
It's the light on fire?
I like your voice evac message
Does this panel have 2 wire audible silence???????
Yes! Also, there are 2 Notification Appliance Circuits (NAC). At the time, the horn strobes were one one NAC in the basement with the FACP and the remote was on the second. The voice evac was controlled by a addressable relay module or relay within the panel.
Why does the heat detectors lights go red?
To indicate it in alarm.
I like this video
Why is the system sensor spectaralert classic on the ceiling? Those are usually wallmounts
Roblox
It looks cool
Nice footage !
⁰p
The Weather Channel
Next to the heat detector smoke detector in your hallway I noticed the "Nest" alarm system
Yep!
Is Your system connected to the central station or not I always thought of putting a fire alarm system in a house
When it was installed, the alarm relay was connected to the fire input of the security system with a disconnect switch in the fire panel for testing
Why does it flash so bright?
0:35 pop goes the smoke detector
I love my alarm just put the freaking commander free
@@alexisbarragan2048 what?
how did you get it installed? if you know how
He installed it himself
I had an alarm the same as the one at the beginning that was next to the smoke sensor But I hardly use it
That fire alarm should not be mounted on the ceiling.
Just got my NFW-50 for christmas, does your 9050 put out filtered current or FWR?
I searched the manual, no mention of FWR for the NACs. I don't have the panel any more either, so I can't check. Sorry that I couldn't help.
@@tor94 Mine runs Filtered, I was pretty sure it put out FWR
Nice vid man!
Thanks!
You have a fan
Thank you! Much appreciated friend. Also, lol my house was not a mansion, but it was weird having two basements!
Do you have an nest
have u ever had problems with your nest protect smoke/carbon minoxide detector?
Not once!
well i have heared other people having problems with theirs=(
This is utterly terrifying. Ok, so I am scared of alarms anyway but this would freak me out lol
The fire 🔥 alarm 🚨 and smoke 💨 alarm 🚨 is sus
Is it possible to hook up a co detector to this panel to sound as a supervisory when the co detector goes off
Yes
My dad has fire alarms at his office.
Your house is like a mansion
Me myself, I would have put a slightly higher value heat detector in the attic since attics get hot in the summer but just saying. Keep up the good work man 💪
Do you make videos
The specteralert classic is installed upside down. #whatafirealarmfail
when are you going to do another system test
is that nest
Why is the alarm goes off again
I think there was still some fog downstairs
I like your lasko box fan!
The ants are going forward intermittently
Mate we haven’t seen you in 2 years, you need to make videos again!
Instablaster.
Took a long time to activate the fastest activiated (sorry if I spelled wrong) is the xp95 optical
I see a lot people having commercial fire alarm systems installed in their houses here on UA-cam a lot and honestly, I think its really cool. My only question is what do they plan to do with it if they move out?

would the dog be scared of the fire alarm
A cat I used to own wasn't even scared of my Fire Alarms when I activated them.
That is crazy you you have so many detector alarms
This is not a this is not a crazy fire alarm it's very cool.
You can make a warrant out during the fire or you're going to practice a fire drill at school or you're going to test it at home 🏡.
I didn't realize that's should have been replaced with a ceiling unit
I like the USA's fire alarms but I think our fire alarms in the UK are better
GamerHD555 eh I like American alarms better, but I do love UK alarms!
Be lucky you don't have to deal with spectralert advances.
@@BlueThunderboltsiren *Y E S*
It usually sounds bwhoooooooooooooooop
Hahaha Haa Funny
Tornadofreak1994, Do you have 1 or 2 basement(s)

You Have two basements?
@@tor94 amazing lol
You need more poll stations
Brandon Syphas do you mean pull station?
I wonder what your dog is thinking
you should put a alarm up stairs
smoke dectoer next to a google nest= very loud
Omg is that a spectalert classic on the celling because it was wall mounted
⁸po00 0 ,p
Get the system sensor speaker strobe
Your profile picture is so cute
The one by the stairs is an sd355t the t stands for thermal,
Can not go
Hold up, why did you put a spectaralert classic wallmount on the celing?
because i could XD ... in reality I didnt have a ceiling mount device
@@tor94 lol but could u put it on the wall lol
Can you do the door release pull station
oh i hate fire alarms i have panic attacks i hate it really bad i am sorry i get afraid i need to find away to get over this problem
👍👍👍👍😘😘
Sus…
You have a wall mounted horn strobe on your ceiling. You need to replace it worth a PC2R/W
Jason Guerard i know. I have 2 pc2rs now but i dont live there anymore and the system has been removed.
Dayton
FIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it should be mounted on the wall dude
I have a poll station is vg12Lx
That's the exact fire alarms in my school that I work at
MY EARS!!!!!
Hahahaha
I guess the fire alarm system has a smoke detectors in it. all my rooms have a smoke detectors accept for the kitchen, the living room, my bathrooms, and my laundry room doesn't have smoke detectors.
Your house is a mansion
I believe I live in his old house because it has a system just like this and I test it the WHOLE time
At my old house the fire alarm went off in the hallway
Fire alarm looks like imposter from among us
Cause you don’t even know your own shades i have a sco2
The smoke detector is sus.
