Living room fires with and without a fire sprinkler (Timecode)

[lhop]

Whenever I see videos like this, I'm always surprised at how quickly smoke can fill a room to where nothing can be seen.

0:22 That sprinkler was so excited to pop out and save the day! It's like having a little fire hose in the ceiling. Everyone should have one in their home.

Sprinkler: *you just activated my trap card*

Pretty scary how quickly the curtain took hold

I do like how we got shown the severity of the damage in great detail at the end though 👏🏻 so many demos don't do that and it's frustrating because that's the whole point of it.... To show just how much damage can be done in so little time! 🔥🚒

So frightening how rapid the second simulation is.

I already told my wife when we buy a house this is one of the first things I'm having installed. They don't cost that much, like $1.50 a square foot. There's no good reason to NOT get it. Plus carbon monoxide detectors. smoke alarms, security system, Ring, Blink, or Simplisafe or a combination that makes sense, security film on the windows, motion lights and dusk till dawn lights, and a large dog bow at the back door, no dog required, just the illusion of a big dog freaks people out.

hello

I am an instructor teaching fire response training to firefighters in Korea.

Using your video (Living room fires with and without a fire sprinkler (Timecode)) in our training will be of great help in teaching many firefighters about the dangers of fire.

May I use your video in my lecture?

thank you

From South Korean firefighter Shin Seung-hyun

Legacy furnishings, synchronized home alarm systems where all the alarms go off if one does and home sprinkler systems are the things everyone should have in their home. Even one of three significantly is better than none. Just having legacy furnishing's, turned my house fire into a small one, limited to one room, vs a major one that would have likely done significant structural damage according to the fire chief.

that sprinkler was not having any of that fire's shit today

Very poor demo. One sprinkler head is not enough in this room. A second sprinkler would put the fire out before the fire department got their truck out of the firehouse. Of course, they still need to make sure it is safe. Sprinklers usually will do less water damage than a two or three-inch fire hose full blast. Firemans' lives matter too. A four-minute response is pretty good. Time four minutes and see how long that is when you need to urinate right now.

Kinda freaky I almost had a fire happen when I was in the shower I had no sprinklers and I was clear in the back of the house

My cats knocked the lamp onto the couch and it was on high the bulb didn’t break and it was directly on it and luckily I had come out just in time before it went upon flames it left a nice sized hole in the arm and it was millimeters away from the wooden couch frame if I was only a couple minutes longer in the shower the couch would of been in flames

Fire sprinkler systems should be required by law in all new homes.

Story:in 1856 a fire started in 702 north west street.the fire started by super bad light!!! The fire fighters had to come put the fire out.now the house went in the forest in 1923 because of a hurricane! Now it was a abandoned house.

I wonder what caused the fire I know this one was conscious but just for fun what happened?

[masrourdehghani]

Fire is actually you have to stay out in this home
