Super cool vid Nic and soooo much nostalgia in this schiool. Everything from the 1960's era emergency lighting pack behind the stage to the vintage 80's "Town House" Apple 🍎 juice can in the crawl space this brings back many memories of my elementary school I attended in the early 1980's. My particular school was built in 1966 and had pretty much everything this school still has (well minus the fire bells in this case.) Too bad they took out the original bells would love to have seen/heard those. Also couldn't help but notice the "Danger Asbestos" sign on the crawl space access hatch near the end behind the stage. Was that old asbestos insulation that had been down there(presumably in the fooor joists) at some point and had been removed or was it still there? Did you have to be super careful when crawling through that section? Always wondered about that in my school back in the day. Anyhow thanks for another super awesome testing vid...keep em' coming,
nick helped replace the fire alarm system he actually made a video about it like a year ago replacing the bells panel and stuff there's the link ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-piXEmNWagww.html
Oh yes thank you I forgot about that one...that 6500 with the Durabels was an epic system. One last question for Nic; did that old emergency lighting pack behind the stage actually work when you tested it or was disconnected? Kinda looked like it might have been original to the building.
The asbestos warning may have been referring to the floor itself as it’s often in the glue they use to attach the floor or if it was for the crawlspace, it would have likely been for any insulation on ducts or pipes but I can’t really remember, it’s not really a problem as long as you don’t touch it or move it
17:58 have you ever burned the detector before like turn it black or melt AND 22:56 how did you get your camera on the other side before you got to the other side
It was an emergency system replacement during the peak of the Covid Pandemic supply was a huge issue. It was tough to find the limited stuff just for this system.
That makes sense. I have seen this happen first hand just today. I had to go over to a small reality office today that had a Fire Lite MS-2 panel. The office was very small, office and a bathroom. Well, he had a Fire Lite MS-2 panel and he had a horn that shorted out the nac and which that destroyed the nac. Because the office was so small, didn't require a strobe or access control...just a fire alarm, I just got into his Honeywell vista 20p burglary system and programmed in 2 fire zones and called it a day. However, I saw it happen today.
@@project_dog remember that nick said that it was a kitchen why would there be a water extinguisher next to a kitchen?? but the extinguisher was pretty old possibly from the 60s around when the school was built so yeah put the facts together and it's a water extinguisher it would have been better if there was a classK but there's nothing that we can do about it.
