- How to open the fireplace damper.
Be sure to do this before lighting a fire so the smoke goes out through the chimney.
Keep it shut, when you don't have a fire.

This man is an absolute angel and he deserves the whole world❤️
Well, heaven anyway... This world has gone to hell in a hand basket. On a zip line, straight down! Glad to have dad here, maybe he can help us out the basket👍
@@NomenoNescio there is one bruh
He explained it and kept it simple. Love that!
I don't even have a fireplace...still I'm watching ❤️
It's better to know this in case we go somewhere that has a fireplace and they ask us to fire it
Dad: Are you winning son?
Son: You dad, you're winning.
I don't have a fireplace, don't know anyone who does, and never seen the inside ever. I had no idea what any of this was beforehand, but hey, living is learning! And I'm glad I'm living.
Thanks dad!
Your voice sounds amazing in the fireplace.
thank you dad, I'm in my late 20s and have just moved into my first place with a wood burning fireplace! my dad's ashes sit on the mantle of it and I'm certain he appreciates you being here to help me understand how to manage it responsibly. ♡
My dad died 3 years ago and my dad doesn't teach me because he had cancer and tumor but now i think i have dad keep it up
Keep up the channel I have no dad he was not the best father this helps alot
Ditto. I love watching this and imagining what it might have been like to have a dad. This guy is an awesome example of a great dad. Calm demeanor, strong clear voice, helpful explanations and even some humor 🤗 Thank you, sir!!
now i know the real use of that steel bar thing ... i thought it's only used to kill someone or for protection when someone enters the house ,,,,thanks Hollywood
That like to views ratio is insane, keep up the good work dad
Thanks Dad!
Quick, easy, and straight to the point. Perfect video!
your short little video genuinely make me smile, thanks for that:)
hello from spain and thanks!
Back in the day, my grandparents were young parents, moved into a tiny hut with their baby and a couple other relatives, and on one of the first few nights decided to light a fire to stay warm. Someone didn't have the knowledge or overlooked opening the hatch in the fireplace, they lit the fire and went to sleep. My grandma woke up front disturbed rest, realized that there wasn't enough air and something was wrong, and woke everyone up and evacuated the family safely. Had they slept through the night, they would have most likely suffocated from carbon monoxide poisoning.
It's crazy how something so small can make or break being alive, but there you have it.
Thank you, for teaching (younger) people this crucial life lesson.
Thanks, Dad! Just built my first fire 😊
I like scratching things
That's cool
Saw you again
Dude! No way same :0
Nice
You should do a video for the maintenance of a fireplace. I never knew the dangers of an unclean fireplace. Its crazy hpw much you don't know about your house
Haven’t ever even heard of a damper thank you so much!!!
Loving the shorts! So useful.
You do amazing work, keep it up
I’m not crying- YOu arE!! ... *goes back to crying watching these*
Thank you for everything you do! They’re truly amazing and beneficial. We love you❤️
Damper in australia is basically a dough/bread known as a staple for campfires and camping so i was expecting you to make that 😂😂😂
Hey so I’ve heard why you made a channel before and I just wanna tell you that you are so kind caring and loving for all the kids that didn’t have dads growing up
LOVE that you are doing this for everyone, but especially for young men and women who don't have a great dad to ask. May you be blessed with health and happiness for sharing your knowledge! Love, A Mom
Thank you for the view of the damper in action - we have this style! I'm too afraid to stick my head in my fireplace. We began having rodent problems in the garage, and I was afraid they'd come down the chimney, but this looks very secure. I'm planning to get a chimney cap this weekend.
Lol Dad shorts = above the knee.
P.s Loved the fireplace joke 😂
I always thought the poker was for stirring the ashes and stuff?
P.s God bless you Dad! You are a legend (and I'm not just saying this because you're my dad lol)
Thank you so much for teaching us and sharing your knowledge with us. You have no idea how much of a big help you are to all of us children especially those who didn’t have a father figure or who’s fathers were just absent. It is truly tough sir to grow up not having a dad who can teach us these things, so it means a lot that you created this channel and you’re taking your time and efforts to teach us these important things. Thank you sir, with all my heart. 🙏🏼
Hi! You're doing a good job! With warmth and kindness! Good luck to everyone!
Thank you for this! I knew I needed to open something in there ..just wasn't sure how it worked & wasn't going to take any chance of doing it incorrect. I've been wanting to start a fire for a while, so Im so happy to I finally can!
Thank u so much for all this love I never had. Bless you, you make this world a better place. I would watch your videos when I miss my dad and cry into my pillow. You helped me fight depression
Thank you so much❤️❤️❤️
I love all these videos even though they don’t pertain to me. It’s cool learning new things. Thanks dad!
I don't have a fire place at my place. But hearing hey kids from you just lighten ups my day. Thank you
Most genuine guy on the internet!
My family has a woodstove with dampers on the sides, so I had never seen a fireplace version. Interesting!
I CAN FINALLY USE MY APTS FIREPLACE NOW. I knew there was a thing my grandparents had called a "Floo" I had to open but I had no idea how it worked!
I’m from the Caribbean first time this year that we going to start a fireplace so I’m looking for every tips and information that I can find because we typically don’t have ever have winter down in the Dominican Republic so thank you very much safety first
Keep it up dad love you
I was lucky to have grown up with an actual fireplace. Never knew what any of the parts were for though! I remember cooking sweet yams in our fireplace back in the day 🙂
I have to say, I started on this video and worked my way back on the Dad Shorts videos series. It took me 3 videos before I got why they were called “dad shorts”. 🤣🤣🤣. Such a creative and extremely helpful idea. Thank you for your time in putting these videos together.
I've wondered what it looks like in there and now I know!
I’ve been watching you from the beginning and I have no idea why because I have a dad and boyfriend who do anything I need but I just love learning everything you teach in case I ever have to fend for myself. You’re the best.
Keep up the channel mister it's handy for me because my dad did leave me in neglect so it's just nice to see that someone can explain these things in peace :)
Hi daddy ! Thanks as always for being helpful and nice to the community !
So appreciative of this channel. What a great idea! I tell everyone I know about it! Especially if there’s no dad in the home or dad isn’t home a lot to teach basic skill. You’re a great role model!
A simple lesson, but one that prevents a mess. Thank you!
Thank you for this! We recently moved into a house with a fireplace and never knew!
Thanks! You are so good to all of us!
Thank you I did have a dad in my life but he never taught me half the things you have thank you
These videos are the epitome of things we all need to know! I love these so much
On a side note. DO NOT BURN WOOD IN A GAS FIREPLACE. Had a house local to me blow up and some fatalities when the gas lines ruptured and ignited.
THANK YOU SO MUCH DAD❤
thx dad, always wondered how to use the fireplace right >.
Just seen a post about you on FB, had to come say thanks on behalf of all the kids who don't have that father figure at home! Keep it up
This is the first video I've seen of your channel, but I love the concept, it shows that you are a great person, keep going.
I definitely had the damper closed the first few times I lit a fire.. and I had no idea what I was doing wrong! Haha
My dad died when I was 14 I'm now 15 and I would like to say thank you for you have done.
Who the heck would dislike this.!!! 💜💜💜
Seen your channel on Reddit and subscribed just because I love your ideas. Great channel.
I love how that cute little "Ah" is just a part of the dad jokes.
YOUR JUST THE CUTEST MAN ALIVE IMAGIEN THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE UVE HELPED STOP 🥺im not crying you are 💞
Didnt even know that “dampers” exist, thx
such a wholesome channel
What an absolute awesome guy!
Thanks Dad (I’m older than you btw). We have a fireplace and haven’t used it yet, this is good to know!
that one dislike probably has the best dad in the world.
Thanks for the information 😊❤️
Thanks, Dad! I’ve seen what happens when the damper doesn’t get opened.
Love the cool intro! 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you for sharing🙏 God bless you too
😅😂 i love a corny joke! Thanks, will remember that one🤣 funny commenters, too. Thanks for the view of damper. Just bought an old, worn-out house, much work to do, and here comes winter 🌬️🙄 will subscribe and check out your other videos. Thanks! 🏆
You are a great man!
Great stuff thank you 🙏
Obsessed with this channel ughhhhhh
I recognize that poker! My grandparents had one for their fireplace (but they never had a fire in the fireplace!) 😂
I saw your UA-cam channel feature on an Instagram post. I immediately went here to check out your channel 👍
I watch your stuff so you can get more views and $$$! Hope you get sponsors to show us more things and how to’s around the house!
You are amazing ❤️
Thanks, I have a fireplace and was wondering about that.
Great video!
Thanks Dad! ❤
Hes the dad of almost 3 million people
I've never used my fireplace. Today the temp is 11 degrees and my heat doesn't seem to be working well. I've also never seen the inside of a fireplace. New fear unlocked 😂. Thanks dad!
ur always in my prayers dad!!Godbless u more!!
I appreciate your prayers Tricia!
That means a lot to me. 🙏
Well I could have used this information 30 years ago when I filled my week long mountain rental with smoke! I had knew I had to open the damper, I had no idea which way it went! BTW maybe you should do a video on all the fireplace tools as people seem to not know what the poker is or its uses.
Thank you!
3 22 21 Hey Dad, Love rhe dad jokes & your posts! Stay safe, keep calm, & be well everyone. v
If aliens invade and ask for a representative of fathers we need you.
I don't have a fireplace, I don't even live in a place where it snows, but thanks, dad.
Thanks!
We need to protect this man
thankyou dad!
I never knew that was what the hook was for. My hands always got dirty reaching up inside. Hahahahaha thanks Dad.
I never knew that, I live alone in my apt and I have a fire place I’ve never used bc I didn’t know how to. Thank you !
Wow, me encantó el video
I liked the video as soon as it started just because "Dad Shorts" along with the image made me laugh.
Thanks dad!
Thanks Dad❤
