I love how EST Genesis & Integrities make that "click" before the horn starts. I have both in my home system.

You are so right

[@HawkinsWX]

Yep! That’s what I call the half second warning!

[@The_A_Cast]

I remember my high school having these same alarms but they were white. We always hated fire drills because they were so loud to be so small!

[@blueauraretriever]

My two favorite fire alarm are Genesis and integrity. Wheelock AS & MT I can't stand. Spectralert advance is a FIRE HORNRT

[@LogicDoesStuff]

Genesis and Integrity go together well. AS & MT are extremely loud together.. SpectraAlert Advance is fine on its own...

Sweet! An est system! My favorite! Keep up the great work!

[@ZakWolf]

Whoa, an EST system! All the new schools built in my city since the late 90s use EST voice-evac systems, and I remember Simplex servicing them at one time (I distinctly remember on a day in 2008 they were testing the alarm system at one of the schools, and a SimplexGrinnell van was parked in the school's lot.)

[@KA6ADE]

wileyk209zback I saw a simplex grinnell van pull up at my school and 5minuites later I heard this from a true aleart EHNT EHNT EHNT

[@alexandersalarms5380]

EST is popular in Massachusetts.

[@ZakWolf]

@@alexandersalarms5380 It sure is. I have seen a TON of EST systems in Boston. Though Simplex, Notifier and Gamewell-FCI are also pretty common in Boston, but EST is definitely more prominent in Boston than in my hometown of Brockton. But I wouldn't be surprised if my high school's new fire alarm system is EST once they go forward with the expansion and renovation plan.

[@alexandersalarms5380]

@@ZakWolf I haven't seen a single notifier for as long as I've lived in massachusetts. Only EST, silent knight, and simplex.

[@ZakWolf]

@@alexandersalarms5380 Here in Brockton MA we've got a bunch of Notifier systems. My college campus has them, and several of our public schools now have Notifier systems (usually voice-evac), the mall uses Notifier, and the baseball stadium I work as their mascot performer for has a Notifier system as well.

These types of Edwards-Genesis fire alarms were in the restrooms in my Elementary school. Had a terrible flashback on these today

[@blueauraretriever]

In my school we have the Genesis horn strobes in every room. And in the smaller room we have horn only. OY VEY

[@blueauraretriever]

@GmanFilms 2019 they do. You just need to disable the horn

[@iowansirenrecordings2454]

Oh nice, genesis's. Tapped on this as soon as I saw the notification. Great video! I love watching these

[@safetech]

[@samanthashafer1742]

Very thankful our UNI put remote strobes in the class and horns in the hall. The one time I did deal with these horns it felt like a nail being driven into my ear when I was next to it (diagnosed with SPD at a young age)

[@KittyTheBoy]

At my school this is how our fire alarm sounds like and we all hate it because it's SO LOUD

[@erikmorozov1740]

they should likely set those ones to a low volume if it's already on it's lowest volume it can do or if the volume is fixed and can't be changed then avoid using those alarms and be using different alarms that can be quieter but not too quiet and not too loud

[@CJ9899]

Awesome. An Edwards system

[@alexandersalarms5380]

Yup.

[@StopDropandLOL]

So what’s the function of those ones you stuck the key into and turned? Not the pull stations but the white unit with just the lock cylinder in it.

[@safetech]

Duct detector remote test switch.

[@bailbonspolicedispatchtmag9746]

That’s the fire alarm that I just got in the mail today

[@Flamenmagic]

The good old days of high school the EST Gensis

[@EmergencyResponseChronicles]

The schools in my district have those alarms including the ceiling mounts, but now we are switching to the LED versions.

[@JMANWiSS]

I noticed in most pull stations the break rod is either not in place or is broken. ive noticed this in various videos of your simplex systems too. Is it not your guys job to fix that?

[@joegiacoppo1054]

I like that click pop before the alarm goes off

[@elevatorswithESH]

My elementary and junior high school had these EST genesis fire alarms but except they didn’t say fire on them and the ones at my elementary school were white. There was also an EST Integrety outside the riser room on the exterior that was next to the playground so when we were at recess and they did fire drills we would hear the Integrety go off and then we would just go out the gate. They used to scare me all the time too when we would have drills

[@FireAlert]

Sweet! An est system!

[@theray08]

i never seen a pull on a wall next to a stair case wow

[@MrTylerNicole1]

I believe that is trquired by fire safety and code standards. That way, for example, if a fire occurs on the third floor of a building, you don’t have to wait to get to the first floor or basement to activate the alarm. It may not seem like much, but it can actually alert the fire floor much faster. By the time you get all the way downstairs, that may be five minutes wasted when you could have set the alarms off on the fire floor and alert everyone to get out. I hope that helps.

[@TheCarson116]

I've never understood this to be honest: you're supposedly a technician working directly for Simplex and ONLY Simplex, right? If that's the case, then why are you being assigned to work on these NON-Simplex systems?

[@safetech]

Our work is not limited by our own brand that we install. We can perform basic service and inspection on a variety of systems.

[@american0153]

Unfortunately, older systems are being replaced with newer EST systems. Good video though!

[@alexandersalarms5380]

How that unfortunate? All est systems are awesome.

[@rieon-plumbingfan]

American 015 I think school has EST horn strobes (with the cricket horn), and Edwards pull-stations, and 1 crappy knock off General electric version of a Edwards pull station.

[@alexandersalarms5380]

Cricket horn?

Alexanders Alarms Yes

[@alexandersalarms5380]

@@rieon-plumbingfan yeah, sounds like a cricket.

[@djijspeakerguy4628]

I have these in my school and have not been through a drill yet. My elementary school had the integrity, and it sounded like someone shouting at the top of their lungs an inch from my ear. Should I be afraid of these newer devices?

[@idkanymore9590]

I haven’t heard these in person. But lot’s of people say they’re ear piercing. However, people hear differently. But, it’s pretty high pitched. So, yes you probably should.

[@djijspeakerguy4628]

My new school has these signals, and an unknown panel. It has 278 siga pulls, and the newer, bulkier siga smokes.

[@djijspeakerguy4628]

Update: it’s an EST3 panel.

[@sirensofneohio3979]

Nice Video! Those sound cool.

[@The_A_Cast]

We had these fire alarms at my old job. Am I the only person who hears the little chirp before they sound? Like it sounds like power going to the speaker or something right before they go off

[@idkanymore9590]

No you aren’t the only one who hears it lol

Indicates when it is applying heat and when it is reversing flow to reset.

[@lukep4339]

My school had EST speaker strobes and some of these

[@The_A_Cast]

We had these alarms in my high school but they were white and my job now at a medical center has them. Does anyone know why you can hear that little chirp right before they start to sound?

[@djijspeakerguy4628]

It’s likely to do with the electronics charging up and sending some power to the horn, much like when you turn on any other speaker and it makes a little pop. It could also be another component in the circuit making that noise, such as a capacitor, which is what causes the clicking noise of the strobe as well. I had the integrity horn/strobes at my elementary school, and that little noise before they sounded was a live-saver! I somehow always knew what the noise was when I heard it, and braced. However, I remember sometimes hearing similar noises, such as a pencil being tapped on a desk, ducking and covering my ears unexpectedly. I always got weird looks from people around me when I accidentally did that.😂

[@boydalexander4652]

I hate the sound of the genesis and that is what I have to deal with during fire drills in school in the past because they put in the Genesis series of fire alarms in my schools. And I would go outside before the fire alarm system goes off in my schools sometimes so I wouldn’t have to hear the Genesis horns sound because they are so loud and hurt my ears I am surprised that I am not deaf after all of the EST Genesis fire drills I had in school in recent years because they are very loud alarms.

[@erikmorozov1740]

All of them were likely set on high-volume in your schools so that is why I think it was so loud I think if they were on Low-volume it would not be too loud at all

[@MrTylerNicole1]

Just curious, did you have permission to pull the alarm or use the keys? Unless you have authorized clearance, you can be charged with a crime for pulling a fire alarm.
