Face masks are an absolute, but maybe go over, cover filters for your home. I have a room filter using a hepa filter, but it only will filter one average bedroom. So have a room picked out that you can gather the family and maybe sleep in. Keep snacks, games, etc. handy.
Good video. One consideration. I have several gas masks for members of my family and we use two filters not one. I have found that if your just sitting around one filter is fine but once you become physically active you breathing can be restricted with one filter. With two you can even run for short periods with no problems. Also everyone should try their masks and do a preliminary fit and address any fit or comfort issues now.
Thanks for this .. most people have no idea because it's not like things pop up much that require these things... Also, happy to see you are safe -- I checked your channel a few times and saw you haven't posted.. and I am happy to see you are okay out there.. Thank you for all you have taught my 8-year-old son and me.
I shall add that, after the experience of the Rockton fire two weeks ago, having on hand a good respirator with combined all gases P100 filter(s) is not useless when you live even at 10 - 20 miles from a chemical facility.
be careful when buying filters, don't buy them when on sale because the shelf life will be less than 20 years. They will cost about $80, but will be invaluable when you need them. Be wary of your surroundings, if you live near a nuclear plant or if you are in a potential fallout zone of one.
I have several of those full face mira masks. Got them from the factory with the P rated filters. The CO filters from them are like $85 a piece. They also have kids masks...
@@davidmcpherson9260 My four year old can use the adult mask, you just have to tighten them down all the way. The problem is the weight once the filter is on. Hopefully we won't have to use them very long, if ever. But I have them just in case.
I live in an arra with a moderate risk of wildfires. We have had a few small wildfires, and some of us, neighbors, have decided to organize a first response firefighting brigade. We have just bought full face respirators, with P100 filters, as well as firefighter helmets and clothing.
As always, thank you for the video. My father and I have been thinking about masks. This has helped me narrow down what I want in my EDC and what I will need for an emergency.
The two filter threads for the full face masks are not really for less resistance. They are for switching filters. At least that's the case in the military. They are slowly moving to two holed masks for swapping without having to hold your breath
If there is no oxygen then your combustion engine will not work. I found this out when a train wrecked in our county and chemicals were released. It was heavier than the air and displaced it causing many residents cars to die and they perished. One family four wheeled it over farm land up wind and survived. Something to consider.
Respirators (especially full face ones) are always a good thing to keep on hand just in case. I don't live in an area where wild fires are an issue, we routinely clear burn on the regular here in Texas so large scale fires aren't an issue, but I still have one ready to go.
I just bought a Parcil PT-100 full face piece respirator. It is a step down from a gas mask. If I am in an area where I am in need of a gas mask, I am doing things wrong and am in a true world of hurt. The aforementioned respirator uses proprietary filters which are fairly cheap. The filters are rated equilavent to an N95 standard and also filter out acid gases. However, the respirator can also use more common bayonet style filters (3M) by unscrewing the gray proprietary filter adapter. The propriety filters are slightly cheaper than the bayonet ones aside from particulate only models like the P100 models you showed. I do not live in an area prone to forest fires. Forest fires are not a huge concern to me.
Good video! The Myra mask has two filter ports that allow a shooter to shoot left or right handed without the filter getting in the way. Due to an extreme environmental intolerance I wear a full face mask every day, a 3M 6800. The advantage is that it looks less tackticool, has a large field of view and with the twin filters, the mask is well balanced. Don't forget that if you put a combination filter on the Myra, the mask will become quite heavy on one side. The Myra filter you showed is a class 2 filter and that removes 94% of all gases and vapors from the air for which the filter is intended. I myself wear class 1 filters that filter 80%, which also saves a lot of weight. To put everything in perspective for a person without any PPE, the TLV (Treshold Limit Value) of a substance should not exceed the value of 1, if they wear a half face mask, the TLV may be max. 50 if they wear a full face mask may be the TLV 2000 (if the oxygen percentage is not lower than 19%) Rules regarding the TLV and the use of PPE's can vary from country to country, always check yourself whether you meet the requirements set by the (local) government.
Very helpful! I moved from Southern California to Northern California 3 years ago. Being an hour north of Sac our area has very high fire danger this year with the lack of rain. I can remember when we first moved here we were affected by the smoke from the Paradise Fire. We wore N95 masks whenever we went outside. Not really looking forward to the same scenario this year but it is a fact of life here. Thanks again for the info. Wondering if you have done any research into home air filtration? We only have a swamp cooler. No AC. During the Paradise Fire our house constantly smelled like smoke.
i haven't looked at home filtration at length. we just try to be careful to close our windows when we know smoke is a problem. will add that to my list of video ideas.
Thanks! We do have double paned windows but we still had a problem with smoke smells in the house. Especially after days and days of fire smoke and ash. Thanks for looking into it!
Remember that these types of respirators do not protect against oxygen deficient atmospheres. Also, no respirators should be worn with any facial hair, especially if your are depending on the respirator to protect you from things like paint fumes or solvents.
I have had the actual glass n the full face respirators ground to my specific eye prescription. This good for as my eyes have stopped changing. However, if someone else tries to use my respirator I may be responsible for making the blind with my very strong prescription.
I recommend and have a case of the large Boost Oxygen canisters. They are great to have for pure emergency oxygen and fit over your mouth and can be shared if need be. You can get them on Amazon and they are a must have for your fire/smoke preparedness plan. Cheap insurance that could save your life. Awesome video Chris and thank you for the videos.
@@complexblackness It's supplemental O2. I use it for mountain biking and I can feel the difference. In a smoke emergency these would be handy as hell and could save your life.
The 10a1 Israeli gas mask is much better than the CM-2M Mira gas mask (it does not even have a nose cup). Now Mira sells a better mask for children (MD-1)
IN HOUSTON TEXAS THE LOCAL WALMART SORES ARE NOW RUNNING LOW ON CAR AND TRUCK AIR AND OUL FILTETS..ENGINE OIL TOO FOR DIESEL..TIRES LOW SUPPLY AND SLOW LOW RESUPPLY.
In the time that it took me to find out about the flags flying/not flying over the Pentagon that comment has disappeared. I guess I need to become more tech savvy. Chris, could you do a video about becoming more proficient on the net? From a boomer ♥️🇨🇦
A good breakdown of what the masks and filters can and more importantly what they cannot do. Kris, If I might add once your viewers purchase their mask, regardless if it’s a half or full mask, once you get it home take the mask out of the container and try it on for fit and seal. Please have someone help you hold the head harness on the back crown of your head then ‘cinch’ the straps according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Label the box(es) with the person’s name so you can grab and go. Lastly, use one of the ParticleMax P3 R filters to practice taking it off and simulate putting a new one on while your wearing the mask. The last thing you want to do is try and fumble with a new mask to get it seated properly during an emergency. Ditto with the filter. Practice with it now BEFORE you need it. I wish MIRA would make a training aid filter for their customers to practice with instead of having to open a real filter.🤔
I think I heard you were going to rebuild your water storage rack. Current build doesn't look safe to me. Some sort of cement block collumns and angle iron supported wood beams would be my recommendation. Each of tbose weigh about 500lb.
7:38 I believed you only covered the one on your right. How long do the filters last after start of use? Can you use the mask/filter for a few hours, then reuse? How many times?
Love your videos!! Quick question you may or may not know the answer to. Is there a minimum amor of O2 your vehicle needs to run on? Is there a filter that would help in a smoking environment?
Great question. I think about that a lot. If you have to drive your vehicle through a fire, with low O2, you're going to stall out. How much, I honestly don't know. I hope I never have to find out.
Sorry CP have to correct you on the filtration part. Particles with a size of 0.3 microns are the most difficult to filter. Particles larger and smaller are easier to filter. A N95 filter filters at least 95% of particles with a size of 0.3 microns, particles smaller en larger are filtered better. A N100 filters at least 99.74% of particles with a size of 0.3 microns. The smaller the particle, the more subject they are to Browinan motion, they are so small and ligt that they are bumped by other particles and fly in all directions and so they are caught in the filter medium. Imagine you have to run through a maze of blackberry bushes that is 0.6 ml. long and meanwhile you are being bombarded from all sides with skippy balls. Then try to get to the other side. Particles with a size of 0.3 microns have the right mass to not get knocked off course, yet are agile enough to make the turns in the maze. Larger particles crash into the walls because they are too heavy to make the bend and get stuck in the blackberry bush.
Can you make a video related to this covering the impact of global warming and the heat waves causing mass blackouts droughts and forest fires on West coast? I've been following it ever since it started, they recorded historic record temperatures in multiple states with temperatures soaring to as high as 115°F in states like Nevada and Arizona. Very concerning right now so far 9 people have died from heat exhaustion What can we expect in the long run in years to come how will our government deal with the rising climate crisis and how will we be able to adapt to such extreme temperatures what will we need to survive a climate based apocalyptic scenerio?
Hello, I have a question, about the cbrn gas mask, wouldn't it be better to have more than one for each person? Considering that if you could not decontaminate it for any reason you could not reuse it safely? Greetings from Italy and congratulations for your instructive channel
Should definitely be bette than nothing. HEPA is supposed to be something like 99.95% for the 0.3 micron particles. I used MERV 13 filters for my central air last year and while not nearly as good as HEPA in the low particle size end, it made a huge difference so I’d expect HEPA to be more effective. It will probably also depend on how well sealed your room is.
So what mask should I put in my 10 year old daughter's room in case of fire ? That she could grab quick to leave the house and breath more safely ? From what I understand, only the last option is safely breathable.
Not sure if you knew this but actually when I was employed by the fire departement one day I refilled scba cylinders that what you wear in burning building they contain special compressed air not oxygen !!!! air is about 21 % oxygen and did you know oxygen can explode while it would be safe to fill a water fire extinguisher with compressed air as a propellant? I have never had an experience of refilling an oxygen bottle !!! I would not want to risk filling a fire extinguisher with compressed oxygen I dont even know of a way to do it though it would be safe to fill a water fire extinguisher with compressed air as propellant.
My son has health issues,where I need to consider masks. My son is allergic to latex and even non latex medical gloves. We have tried a few masks, he is either allergic or the mask doesn't cut the smoke. The smell of smoke, tobacco or coffee trigger crippling migraines in him. What mask would be safe for him? When fire season comes he has no place to get relief from the smoke from California fires. Is there anything reusable?
did you ever happen to come across a good loose/hood style respirator for people with beards that seals around the neck? I've heard they exist, but I haven't really been able to source one that doesn't cost an arm and a leg because it's just for military etc.
It's .3 micron, not .1. N95 means it is rated to filter out 95% of particulates AT .3 microns(not down to). All filters are tested at the .3 micron level because particulates at .3 micron are the hardest to capture. When they get smaller, they have such little mass they exhibit what is known as "brownian movement" or motion... in which the particle travels through the air in a zig-zag pattern, making them far easier to capture. This is why HEPA filters(like that P100) also filter viruses which are smaller than .3 microns (covid being .08-.12 micron from early estimates in 2020). (Disclaimer, I am not an expert... I just did a ton of research and everything is verifiable) For 3M respirators, I suggest looking into the model 7093 p100 filters. They are encased in plastic and decently protected from the elements.
Just learn how to smoke cheese and I use the 3M mask (with pink filter) and sealed goggles. Its useful for someone that attach his hair and need a spot for them haha.
You need S.C.U.B.A. for most fire/smoke situations. That is why you see firefighters wearing in when they go into burning buildings! Don’t fool yourself.
You need to retract O2 comment as soon as possible. Being around oxygen tank in a fire is very dangerous. As stated below, firemen do not carry O2 on their back into a fire. Big mistake
Please don't gloss over the N95 mask part. This discredits you slightly as you are not providing full information and are swaying away from facts to avoid controversy. What are the size of virus particles aka aerosols vs chemicals?

Nice and you’ve lost a little weight, huh Chris? Looking good bro, thanks for the vids, keep em coming!
How about those hepa fans that cleans the air in the room? Better than nothing? I can't wear a mask at night while sleeping.
Should definitely be bette than nothing. HEPA is supposed to be something like 99.95% for the 0.3 micron particles. I used MERV 13 filters for my central air last year and while not nearly as good as HEPA in the low particle size end, it made a huge difference so I’d expect HEPA to be more effective. It will probably also depend on how well sealed your room is.

I would not want to risk filling a fire extinguisher with compressed oxygen I dont even know of a way to do it though it would be safe to fill a water fire extinguisher with compressed air as propellant.
i have a 3d printed adapter for my 40mm thread gasmask so i can run 3m filters
My son has health issues,where I need to consider masks. My son is allergic to latex and even non latex medical gloves. We have tried a few masks, he is either allergic or the mask doesn't cut the smoke. The smell of smoke, tobacco or coffee trigger crippling migraines in him. What mask would be safe for him? When fire season comes he has no place to get relief from the smoke from California fires. Is there anything reusable?
PAPR hood
So what type of mask stops gas like Ammonia Gas or carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide. or is there nothing for that.
Can you use the first one you mentioned for rubber vapors? Not necessarily smoke but rubber that gets hot enough to release a vapor
Does this work for granite stone ?
A box fan and a 20x20 hepa filter is going to do you more good than trying to wear a mask all day.
did you ever happen to come across a good loose/hood style respirator for people with beards that seals around the neck? I've heard they exist, but I haven't really been able to source one that doesn't cost an arm and a leg because it's just for military etc.
Good informational video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Glad it was helpful!
Is the news letter free like TH-cam subscription
yup
In Florida I'm more concerned about tje nuclear reactors near me. THANKS for the video.
What about carbonmonoxcid ???
i talk about CO toward the end of the video. Great question.
@@CityPrepping I asked before you got to that part thank you very much
Are these smog masks that bikers wear good against vulcano ash?
Get a smoke hood which offers an oxygen supply to escape
It's .3 micron, not .1. N95 means it is rated to filter out 95% of particulates AT .3 microns(not down to). All filters are tested at the .3 micron level because particulates at .3 micron are the hardest to capture. When they get smaller, they have such little mass they exhibit what is known as "brownian movement" or motion... in which the particle travels through the air in a zig-zag pattern, making them far easier to capture. This is why HEPA filters(like that P100) also filter viruses which are smaller than .3 microns (covid being .08-.12 micron from early estimates in 2020). (Disclaimer, I am not an expert... I just did a ton of research and everything is verifiable)
For 3M respirators, I suggest looking into the model 7093 p100 filters. They are encased in plastic and decently protected from the elements.
good to know...thanks for that feedback. i'm always learning as well :)
I'm looking to buy respirators, I also have 2 toddlers, anyone have any insight on what they do for toddlers?
Just learn how to smoke cheese and I use the 3M mask (with pink filter) and sealed goggles. Its useful for someone that attach his hair and need a spot for them haha.
Hey thanks for making this video - the information is very helpful to me - I apprentice it - "Dogman" here - salt lake city
Not oxygen tanks on firefighters backs.

You need S.C.U.B.A. for most fire/smoke situations. That is why you see firefighters wearing in when they go into burning buildings! Don’t fool yourself.
You need to retract O2 comment as soon as possible. Being around oxygen tank in a fire is very dangerous. As stated below, firemen do not carry O2 on their back into a fire.
Big mistake
p100 stads for oil proof 99.97%
To live more safely, get out of Kalifornia!
Wish people in east palestine had them...
Please don't gloss over the N95 mask part. This discredits you slightly as you are not providing full information and are swaying away from facts to avoid controversy. What are the size of virus particles aka aerosols vs chemicals?
