By Dad, How Do I
.
.
In this video, I have a great interview with Steve Kerber with UL’s Fire Safety Research Institute (FSRI) about all things having to do with smoke alarms.
At the end, I will show you how to install a smoke alarm.
It’s important to know about the life-saving benefits of having working smoke alarms properly installed in your home. Install smoke alarms inside each bedroom, outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home, including the basement. Smoke alarms should be installed at least 10 feet (3 meters) from a cooking appliance to minimize false alarms when cooking.
Mount smoke alarms high on walls or ceilings (remember, smoke rises). Wall-mounted alarms should not be installed more than 12 inches away from the ceiling (to the top of the alarm). Don’t install smoke alarms near windows, doors, or ducts where drafts might interfere with their operation.
Remember to test smoke alarms regularly (at least 2x per year), Close Before You Doze and create and practice a Fire Escape Plan.

hey kids
0:01
so today’s video is actually sponsored
0:04
by the fire safety research institute uh
0:07
fsri they actually reached out to me and
0:09
i thought boy this is a good fit because
0:11
i actually had some questions and uh in
0:13
the video today you’ll see that i’m i’m
0:16
interviewing stephen kerber with fsri
0:19
and kind of picking his brain and i’m
0:20
learning right alongside you because
0:22
there’s certain things that i needed
0:23
clear clarification on so you’ll see
0:25
that in the video and then at the end of
0:27
this video i’ll actually show you uh how
0:29
to install one and then talk about a
0:31
couple different options you have for
0:32
smoke detectors you know with carbon
0:34
monoxide detectors as well where they’re
0:36
two in one and i think i think that’s a
0:38
good thing to have so uh and then i’ll
0:40
show you how to install one so but first
0:43
i do have a dad joke for you so
0:45
uh
0:46
last week i cooked dinner for some
0:48
people and everyone thought it was
0:49
terrible
0:50
but the joke’s on them because my smoke
0:52
detector thought it was fire
0:55
so anyway let’s get started i’m here
0:58
today with steve kerber with fire safety
1:00
research institute uh steve i love to
1:04
bring in experts so tell us a little bit
1:05
about your background
1:07
hey rob well my my most important title
1:10
is dad i’ve got two sons uh cameron and
1:13
owen and uh professionally i’m the
1:15
executive director of ul’s fire safety
1:18
research institute uh so i lead a team
1:20
that studies fire how fire grows and
1:22
spreads and how to keep you safe
1:25
oh that’s great yeah i love to bring
1:27
experts on my channel because i you know
1:28
i do the best with what with my
1:30
knowledge but i think it’s important to
1:32
bring in people that know a lot more
1:33
than me so
1:34
uh so let’s just run through some
1:36
questions that i you know um we’ve had a
1:38
little bit of dialogue already but i uh
1:41
yeah so we’ll go through some questions
1:42
and then also i’ll throw in some on my
1:43
own because i you know i’ll admit my
1:46
ignorance as well
1:47
so why is it important to have smoke
1:49
alarms in your home
1:51
i think but most importantly having
1:53
working smoke alarms can save your life
1:56
i think that’s certainly utmost
1:58
importance
1:59
and a lot of people don’t realize how
2:01
fast fire is i mean you may have as
2:03
little as three minutes or less to
2:05
escape your home if you have a fire so
2:07
you need every second you can possibly
2:10
get and that working smoke alarms gonna
2:12
let you know when that clock is starting
2:14
and uh get you to move
2:17
yeah okay i you know um even speaking
2:19
from my own self i i i’m just again uh
2:23
gonna be all transparency i uh you know
2:26
i don’t necessarily it’s kind of an
2:28
afterthought and so it is something that
2:30
we really need to be paying attention to
2:32
because it’s it’s important because it
2:34
saves your can save a life and you don’t
2:35
want to in hindsight go ah i wish i
2:38
would have done that you know so it’s
2:39
important to to do it ahead of time so
2:42
so how many smoke alarms do people need
2:44
throughout throughout their house and
2:46
where should they put them
2:48
well it’s uh the best guidance is that
2:52
we want at least one smoke alarm on
2:55
every level of your home that includes
2:57
your basement
2:58
and then we want one in every sleeping
3:00
room so in every bedroom and then
3:02
outside every sleeping area so if you’ve
3:05
got three bedrooms off of the hallway
3:08
you want one in the hallway in the
3:10
middle of those three bedroom doors and
3:12
then one behind each one of those doors
3:15
okay and one thing that we’ve talked
3:16
about that i didn’t know about is the
3:18
fact that smoke smoke alarms can
3:20
actually talk to each other now there’s
3:22
certain
3:23
yeah so if one goes off it sets the
3:25
other ones off i thought what a cool
3:27
feature i had never heard that before
3:29
yeah even better we call that
3:30
interconnected smoke alarms so that can
3:33
be either through wires or it can also
3:35
be through a wireless signal
3:38
so the important part there is let’s say
3:40
you have a fire on the opposite side of
3:43
your house where you’re sleeping
3:45
that if the one that detects the fire
3:47
that’s closest to the fire if that goes
3:50
into alarm the one in your bedroom will
3:52
go into alarm as well so you don’t have
3:54
to hear the one that’s on the other side
3:55
of the house
3:57
the key is to make sure those smoke
3:58
alarms are working doesn’t do you any
4:00
good if you’ve got them up on the
4:01
ceiling and they’ve got dead batteries
4:03
or they’ve expired so they have a test
4:06
button so you want to push and hold that
4:08
test button and you’re going to hear a
4:09
loud beep
4:11
and that’s going to be followed by the
4:12
alarm going into alarm or going off
4:16
so as you push that button if you hear
4:18
it if it’s loud that’s great
4:20
if it’s quiet or doesn’t go into alarm
4:23
it’s time to replace that battery your
4:25
time to get a new alarm
4:27
okay okay and i have seen smoke alarms
4:29
that um you can’t change the battery you
4:31
actually got to change the whole smoke
4:33
alarm itself um
4:36
is that is that pretty common these days
4:37
you just change the whole smoke alarm
4:40
absolutely so you can get what they call
4:41
sealed alarms that have a lithium-ion
4:45
long life battery in them
4:47
designed to last many years depending on
4:49
the type it could be seven to ten years
4:52
and that way you don’t have to replace
4:54
that battery but
4:56
once you test it no longer works or we
4:58
hit that 10-year mark
5:00
we want to replace that alarm
5:03
okay
5:04
okay so how would you
5:06
again this is for myself uh how would
5:08
you um
5:10
encourage somebody to keep track of the
5:12
10-year mark i you know we we’re dealing
5:14
with so much in our lives these days you
5:16
got stuff coming at you every day and
5:18
it’s like oh you know it’s an
5:19
afterthought but it’s so important
5:21
so is there any you have any insight
5:23
there as far as a way to remind you to
5:25
to do it every 10 years
5:27
that’s a great question i mean it’s i
5:29
know i have trouble remembering what i
5:31
need to do tomorrow uh let alone what i
5:33
need to do 10 years from now
5:35
um but a thing that we’ve seen people do
5:37
is as you put that smoke alarm up you
5:40
look at the manufacture date on the back
5:42
of the smoke alarm and then you go ahead
5:44
and set a calendar invite for yourself
5:46
so you set a recurring calendar invite
5:48
let’s say monthly so that you test it
5:51
monthly or i mean now that all of our
5:54
software’s cloud-based and stuff like
5:55
that you can schedule a meeting for
5:58
yourself uh 10 years out
6:00
that who knows you get surprised and i
6:03
don’t remember putting that on my
6:04
calendar 10 years ago but heck i got to
6:06
go replace all my smoke alarms now
6:08
ah good insight yeah that’s not
6:10
something
6:11
was that was that we talked about
6:12
earlier so kind of put you on the spot
6:14
there nice
6:15
uh
6:16
so
6:17
let’s see how do you know if your smoke
6:19
alarms are expired and when do they need
6:22
to be replaced i guess we kind of
6:23
already talked about that one thing i
6:25
thought about too as you were just
6:26
talking i wonder you know in it in the
6:28
discreet way if there might if you might
6:30
want to just write on a sharpie on the
6:33
side of the thing you know saying when
6:35
it’s expired instead of having to take
6:36
it off and look at it and sometimes
6:38
those are a little bit difficult to see
6:39
when it needs to be replaced maybe
6:41
that’s
6:42
anyway just throwing your spot on i mean
6:43
a lot of the manufacturers will actually
6:45
have a sticker on the side that’s that’s
6:47
exactly what that’s there for so you
6:49
don’t have to take it down to see that
6:51
or some of them will put it on the back
6:53
so if you just unscrew it a click take
6:55
it down look at the back it’s got that
6:57
manufacturer date on it and you could
6:59
absolutely put a sharpie on there needs
7:01
to be replaced this day 10 years from
7:03
that day
7:04
right right i like it so
7:07
uh so if people already have uh working
7:09
smoke alarms inside their homes what
7:11
else can they do to improve home fire
7:14
safety well there’s
7:17
three main things that we want people to
7:19
do i mean we’ve talked predominantly
7:21
about smoke alarms incredibly important
7:23
that you have them working and you have
7:25
them in the right place
7:26
next you mentioned clothes before your
7:29
doze
7:30
we’ve done a lot of research looking
7:31
into how do we keep people safe if you
7:33
do have a fire and because fire spread
7:36
so fast today we found that a closed
7:39
door so having a closed door between you
7:41
and where that fire could be it’s going
7:43
to buy you those precious seconds
7:45
potentially minutes to try and figure
7:48
out what’s going on i mean we’re not
7:50
used to waking up in the middle of the
7:51
night because an alarm’s going off
7:54
so it’s important that you’ve got time
7:55
to figure things out and because fire
7:57
spread so fast we want to put a barrier
8:00
between you and where that fire is to
8:01
stop that smoke and that heat from
8:03
getting to you
8:04
so you can do the third thing which is
8:07
execute your escape plan
8:09
so we know that
8:11
people in the moment are not going to
8:13
know what to do so you’ve got to be
8:15
prepared
8:16
and
8:17
planning that escape plan thinking about
8:19
fire safety with your family and knowing
8:22
what we call the plan a b and c so plan
8:25
a is know the quickest way out of your
8:27
home so if you’re in your bedroom and
8:30
looking around it’s going to be out that
8:31
bedroom door and then probably out the
8:34
front door of your house you’re going to
8:35
go outside go to your meeting place and
8:38
make sure you’ve got all your family
8:39
members and call 9-1-1 for help
8:42
that plan c is or the plan b
8:44
is all right that is blocked so you wake
8:48
up you go to your door
8:50
hallway’s full of smoke you can’t see a
8:52
safe way out your plan b is well i’m
8:54
gonna go to the window and if you’re on
8:56
the first floor you can go out that
8:57
window and outside and follow your plan
9:01
or if you’re on a upper floor of your
9:03
house
9:04
and you don’t have an escape ladder
9:06
now we’re talking about that plan c
9:09
which is
9:10
get behind that closed door if any
9:12
smoke’s coming into your room put some
9:14
towels or clothes or whatever to block
9:16
that smoke from coming into your room
9:19
get to that window
9:20
get help call 9-1-1 and
9:23
have that door hold up for you so the
9:25
fire department can come and rescue you
9:28
okay yeah very good
9:30
we shared offline uh that um
9:33
you know when i was a kid i remember
9:35
that this was important you know and in
9:36
school of course i’m old now so i don’t
9:39
know what they’re teaching in school
9:40
necessarily or if they’re teaching this
9:42
and it’s so important you know again
9:43
like we like like we talked about you
9:45
know uh because you don’t want this to
9:48
be
9:48
you don’t have regrets after the fact
9:50
you want to be prepared and have this uh
9:52
you know where it’s just like you said
9:54
you know when a fire comes
9:56
you’re not probably going to be thinking
9:58
real clearly you’re going to be you know
9:59
and if you haven’t rehearsed it oh no
10:01
what do we do um so i think it is
10:02
important to have that do we have
10:04
resources for that is there like a link
10:06
that i could put um for people to go to
10:08
if they wanted more information on an
10:10
escape plan
10:12
what 100
10:13
so
10:14
uh you’re absolutely right you don’t get
10:15
any do-overs i mean this is one of those
10:17
things where it’s like man i wish i had
10:19
planned well you don’t get that
10:20
opportunity in most cases
10:22
um so we want people to plan and we’ve
10:24
got resources at close yourdoor.org
10:28
that will tell you everything you team
10:30
need to know about installing smoke
10:32
alarms clothes before your does and
10:34
making escape plans
10:36
nice okay
10:38
good to know
10:40
uh and then you know i also ask you
10:42
about a fire extinguisher um
10:44
is that is it important to have a fire
10:46
extinguisher are we talking smoke alarms
10:48
because you know for a bigger fire but
10:50
you know i’ve always thought maybe
10:52
there’s a false sense of security with
10:54
the with a fire extinguisher um i think
10:56
it’s important to put out small fires
10:57
but go ahead and if you could speak to
10:59
that you’re absolutely right if it’s a
11:01
small fire i mean the general rule of
11:03
thumb is we want to leave the
11:05
firefighting to the professional
11:06
firefighters
11:08
however if you have a small fire in your
11:10
home that’s not growing it’s not
11:12
spreading quickly it’s contained
11:14
let’s say it’s on a pan on the stove for
11:16
example
11:17
one you’ve got to know how to use that
11:19
extinguisher again so it comes back to
11:21
planning
11:22
and then we want everyone to have a safe
11:25
way out so if you do decide you’re going
11:27
to use it because the fire is small you
11:29
also want to make sure that you’ve got a
11:31
clear escape route and that you don’t
11:33
have the potential of getting blocked or
11:35
trapped and that everyone in your house
11:38
is making their way out and calling the
11:39
fire department
11:41
so that if you’re not successful
11:42
everybody’s still safely getting out
11:44
yeah very good very good so the three
11:47
things to remember are the you know
11:49
having a smoke alarm
11:51
having a fire escape plan
11:53
and then close before you doze this has
11:55
been so educational to me you know
11:57
trying to get my head around exactly
11:59
what i have been doing wrong
12:02
so uh
12:03
so it’s very good one and one thing
12:05
we’ve uh you know it’s
12:08
i don’t know if it’s funny or it’s just
12:10
if or if it’s sad but i think a lot of
12:12
us will
12:13
uh take the battery out of our smoke
12:14
detector because maybe we put it too
12:16
close to a kitchen or whatever and it’s
12:19
going off all the time and it’s a
12:20
nuisance and so
12:22
you know i’m guilty i i i’ve done it
12:25
myself and you know and that’s not
12:27
that’s not good so i i guess it really
12:30
comes down to where you’re placing those
12:31
smoke detectors so that they’re not
12:33
going off all the time um and just being
12:35
smart about where you put them
12:37
absolutely so when we say one on every
12:39
level it’s not one in every room so we
12:42
normally want to keep it out of the
12:43
kitchen keep it away from the kitchen
12:45
maybe in a family room or at the bottom
12:47
of uh the steps to the second floor
12:50
because you’re absolutely right it’s
12:51
incredibly common to have what we call
12:53
nuisance cooking alarms you burn the
12:55
toast you burn the food
12:57
and now you’re stuck with not only the
12:59
smoke in your kitchen but now you’ve got
13:01
this blaring sound
13:03
uh driving you crazy
13:05
so a lot of the new alarms will have a
13:07
hush button
13:08
and what that does is as you set it off
13:11
you go ahead you hit that hush button it
13:13
desensitizes it for a few minutes so
13:16
that you can get the smoke out you can
13:17
open the windows you can fan the smoke
13:20
out of your house
13:21
and then as that smoke is gone your
13:23
alarm’s still up your alarm still has
13:25
its battery in it and it’s ready to work
13:27
the next time that it’s needed
13:29
yeah good to know um and do you does it
13:32
matter if it’s wired or or um not wired
13:35
i i don’t know if if one is better than
13:37
the other i you know my house is built
13:39
in mid 70s and so nothing’s wired as far
13:42
as that goes um
13:44
so and and would you recommend that a
13:47
person would use the same smoke detector
13:50
in
13:51
all the rooms or does that matter i was
13:53
just thinking for familiarity i’m just
13:55
again thinking for myself here uh
13:58
because because each one’s a little bit
13:59
different and then you know oh this one
14:02
i got to do this to hush it this one i
14:03
got to do that you know i think
14:05
it’d probably be a good idea to maybe
14:07
try to stick with the same
14:09
model for each each location
14:11
you’re spot on i mean you want to make
14:13
it easy for yourself so it really
14:15
doesn’t matter whether it’s wired or
14:17
battery
14:18
the wired ones do have a battery backup
14:20
in case you lose power
14:22
um so that they they work all the time
14:25
but yeah i’m with you i mean i i like
14:27
having them all be the same and i like
14:30
replacing them or testing them on the
14:32
same frequency also knowing how they
14:35
work
14:36
there’s also combination smoke alarm
14:39
carbon monoxide alarms so you only have
14:41
to have one alarm instead of two so you
14:44
want to do what’s convenient for you and
14:46
uh the simpler you can make it because
14:48
you’re not thinking about it all the
14:49
time
14:51
so i think your your advice is spot on
14:53
you want to put them all in replace them
14:54
all at once
14:56
and then test them all at the same time
14:58
yeah and you recommend uh you were
15:01
talking about monthly testing them but
15:04
um at a minimum we should be testing
15:06
them every time daylight savings time is
15:08
what i’ve always heard is you know
15:10
whenever we’re changing our clocks
15:11
forward or back it’s just a good
15:13
reminder that’s the time to do it
15:16
it’s a good reminder to uh also if you
15:18
have battery alarms that do have
15:20
removable battery to replace those
15:22
batteries and and don’t wait until you
15:24
hear the chirp it which always seems to
15:26
be at three o’clock in the morning um
15:29
get get that on a regular schedule so
15:30
yeah if you do that every six months at
15:32
daylight savings
15:34
um and even if you test them
15:36
at that frequency it’s it’s in your head
15:38
you’re thinking about your family safety
15:40
that’s also a great time to say
15:42
hey kids we we haven’t talked about fire
15:45
safety or practice our escape plan
15:48
um let’s
15:50
one day light savings let’s do it during
15:52
the day time when everybody’s awake and
15:53
then at night let the next six months
15:56
let’s look at all right what would we do
15:57
if we were sleeping and we were all in
15:59
our beds what would i expect all of you
16:01
to do
16:02
yeah
16:03
well this has been great it’s been
16:05
educational to me like i said i’ve
16:07
learned a lot um just talking to you
16:08
even before
16:10
before going online with you uh
16:12
so i don’t know is there anything else
16:13
you’d like to add or um and also i do
16:16
got to acknowledge the fact that you’re
16:17
a dad that’s congratulations it’s uh you
16:20
know it’s a blessing and it
16:23
is very rewarding and my kids are out of
16:25
the house now and so you know enjoy that
16:28
time while you have it
16:30
i i do enjoy them uh it is a blessing um
16:34
the one thing i would add is as as your
16:36
kids
16:37
do move on
16:38
uh they become responsible for their own
16:41
fire safety
16:42
so it’s important that as dads we go
16:45
ahead and pass that information onto our
16:47
kids and maybe ask some questions of
16:50
let’s say they go off to the university
16:52
um
16:54
do you have smoke alarms are those smoke
16:55
alarms working do you have an escape
16:58
plan you’re now living somewhere else
17:00
how do you get out
17:01
uh don’t think that dad’s gonna wake you
17:04
up um that you now have to be
17:06
responsible for that yourself um so i
17:08
think that’s an incredible transition in
17:10
life where it’s really important that we
17:12
pass that fire safety how do i onto our
17:16
kids so that they now know and can pass
17:19
it on from there
17:21
yeah that’s a great point thanks for
17:22
thanks for bringing that up because i
17:24
think you know you go off or the kids go
17:26
off and the last thing they’re thinking
17:28
of is that you know they go off and they
17:30
rent an apartment or they get you know
17:32
on campus housing or what have you
17:35
and they got so many other things that
17:37
are new to them that they’re dealing
17:39
with it is important to remind them that
17:41
you know
17:43
do you have a do you have a smoke smoke
17:45
alarm uh you know have you tested it
17:47
because i think that’s probably one of
17:48
the furthest things from their mind at
17:50
that time because they’re juggling so
17:52
much new
17:53
so many new things
17:55
yeah and as a parent that’s one of your
17:57
things that’s that might be a little bit
17:59
of a safety blanket for you i mean
18:01
you’re you’re you’re scared because
18:03
they’re now out of your house
18:04
um so but you should sleep a little
18:06
better at night i mean even if they the
18:09
best case scenario is they have fire
18:10
sprinklers um so if they do have a fire
18:13
in their dorm or in their off-campus
18:15
housing
18:16
uh people are not dying in sprinkler
18:18
buildings that sprinkler is putting that
18:20
fire out while it’s small
18:22
and uh that’s the best situation we can
18:24
have
18:25
yeah
18:26
good
18:27
okay that’s all the those are all the
18:29
questions i have and i’ll include a lot
18:30
more in the description of some of the
18:32
things that people can do i guess i yeah
18:34
one thing that we’ve talked about too
18:36
and i this will also be in the
18:38
description but you know as far as uh
18:40
mounting them on the ceiling or mounting
18:42
them on the wall um
18:44
is do you have a preference there
18:47
my preference is on the ceiling because
18:49
if you think about smoke and heat going
18:51
up the first place they’re going to go
18:52
and begin to spread out is at the
18:55
ceiling but it’s also accepted to have
18:57
it close to the top close to the ceiling
19:00
at the top of the wall
19:01
okay
19:02
yeah as long as we’re mounting it not
19:04
halfway down the wall
19:05
as long as it’s up close to the ceiling
19:08
absolutely
19:09
okay well very cool that’s that’s about
19:11
it all i have and yeah like i said it’s
19:13
been very educational for me and i i
19:16
think this will be
19:17
very educational for for
19:19
my viewers and hopefully they’ll stick
19:21
with it like we talked about a lot of
19:22
times i think it’s hard to stick with
19:26
videos for very long but it is important
19:27
because there’s a lot of information
19:29
here and so hopefully people people have
19:31
learned as much as i have
19:33
well thank you for sharing and thank you
19:35
for all you do to educate everybody
19:38
all right so i hope that was helpful
19:40
insight for you um so the one that i’m
19:42
gonna actually install is this one it’s
19:45
a combination smoke detector and carbon
19:48
monoxide detector
19:49
uh and all these are they’re pretty
19:52
simple and i’m gonna get this one is a a
19:55
10-year battery life so you don’t have
19:57
to worry about the battery uh and all
20:00
you do is just mount this to the ceiling
20:02
and then you mount
20:04
and then this just clips into it it just
20:06
twists in pretty easy and then on the
20:08
back they have a date to tell you
20:11
uh when you should change it because
20:13
they’re supposed to be changed every 10
20:14
years
20:15
uh because there’s the you know a lot of
20:17
the ones that um have been out there for
20:19
a while
20:20
take a battery a 9 volt battery and then
20:22
it is a good habit to get into around
20:25
daylight savings time
20:27
to
20:28
replace those batteries and then you
20:29
should really be checking your uh
20:32
your smoke detector every month uh but i
20:35
know you know we all get busy
20:37
and time gets away from us and you know
20:38
if you can make a mental note to do that
20:40
that would be
20:41
just one more way to feel safe and it’s
20:43
not hard you just push the button to see
20:44
if it’s if it’s working
20:46
okay so these are very
20:48
very easy to install basically you’re
20:50
just gonna install this mounting plate
20:53
and i’m installing that in the middle of
20:55
my um upstairs hallway this particular
20:58
one i’m gonna install like right in here
21:01
and all you’re going to need to do
21:04
um yeah so we’ll install this plate and
21:06
then this just clips onto it pretty
21:08
simple
21:10
so let me
21:11
show you what i’m going to do
21:13
and you know not to make this more
21:15
difficult than it is this is the anchor
21:17
that came with this particular one so
21:19
what how these work is you just you make
21:21
a hole and then you just tap these in
21:23
and then the
21:25
and then the screws
21:26
kind of tiny screws those just screw in
21:29
right pretty pretty easy um you’ve seen
21:32
me do a video on a heavier anchor you
21:35
don’t need it for this though just use
21:37
these they’re fine um all right so i’m
21:39
just gonna walk through that real quick
21:42
all right so i’m just going to mark up
21:44
where i’m going to put the holes so do
21:46
that and that
21:48
okay
21:49
okay so then i went ahead and make a
21:51
hole make a hole there just you can
21:53
drill a little hole whatever you need to
21:55
do to make that hole a little bit bigger
21:58
i got this nail that i’m just putting in
21:59
here to
22:00
make that hole big enough to where those
22:02
anchors can fit in there
22:04
okay then you just take your anchor and
22:07
you tap it in
22:09
get it started by pushing it
22:11
tap it the rest of the way
22:18
okay and then the same thing on the
22:20
other one
22:22
okay so now we’re just screwing in our
22:24
screws into those
22:29
into those anchors
22:34
there you go
22:35
and then
22:37
then you just snap this guy on and this
22:40
has got a 10-year battery in it like i
22:41
said
22:42
so it’ll
22:44
should be good but it’s always good to
22:46
test them around
22:48
around the
22:50
uh daylight savings time still it’s good
22:52
to come up here and push this button
22:56
so it’s good
23:00
all right i hope this whole video was
23:01
helpful to you and like i said i you
23:04
know hopefully you learned something
23:06
because i know i did uh there’s some
23:07
things that
23:08
i didn’t know you know a lot of times
23:10
you walk into a place and you see a
23:11
smoke detector and you just assume
23:13
somebody that installed it knew what
23:14
they were doing and so it’s good to have
23:16
this information and so i thought it
23:18
made sense to to partner with fsri so
23:22
anyway thanks for watching i hope this
23:24
was helpful for you and god bless you
