Back in 2019, me and my family had an extremely old furnace, and it ended up releasing carbon monoxide into the air for several months, and I would always get sick to the point I started getting in trouble with my school for missing over 30 days in a year. Even back then my family wasn't aware of what carbon monoxide really was in a household, so when the fire detectors went off during those months we didn't think too much of it. Then one night me and my parents were asleep, but the carbon monoxide detectors went off, then the fire detectors went off, so we immediately called 911, and it was the middle of winter and we couldn't sleep in our house so we just slept in our car all night. I actually had one of the hospital crews tell me that I was exposed way longer than anyone else, and that night I could've died if the detectors didn't go off. It's such an eerie and grim feeling to know when you might've died. Carbon monoxide is so overlooked, so I hope everyone will be aware in the future when it comes to this stuff :> Also thank your detectors, they could save your own life someday
Yeah carbon monoxide poisoning is very scary because carbon monoxide is quiet and isn’t visible by the naked eye so some people just die because of one vent that isn’t working
@@landenman8708 It really is. Back in the late 90’s we had a carbon monoxide leak in my house. I was only 11 at the time. I remember having to go outside and the fire department had to come in a take care of the issue. Scary stuff
some (one from an old house I lived in) has a different amount/type of beeps depending on what's wrong, but it really should just have a voice to say what's wrong
@@ChampionMahina like, imagine going to sleep, and then waking up to the smoke detector yelling *smoke* instead of just beeping at you. That’s would be a lot more useful
Our smoke detector will do the 3 beep procedure and then a voice says “Fire. Fire.” So we know what’s up. ALSO if your detectors are chirping, it means the batteries need to be replaced.

A few seconds in I was like “It’s gonna be carbon monoxide isn’t it.” And I was right. But seriously, carbon monoxide is probably one of the scariest things ever. It can kill you before you realize that something is wrong.
I learned about carbon monoxide poisoning because before I was born my grandparents almost died of monoxide poisoning so I was taught to always check for it.
I also thought of that a few seconds too. One time before school the fire alarm went off so my mom went to go check it a few minutes in. Luckily we weren’t too late and no one got hurt
Here before this becomes famous. Hi jess! I'm not a huge fan, but you were one of the first channels I found back in 2018/19 ish when I was discovering animation on youtube. ❤️
I think what's going on here...is she's trying to say that she literally was dying to carbon monoxide and her fire alarm was trying to clue her into it, but it wasn't enough XD. I learned this the other week when my apartments fire alarm batteries when out and the landlord said I NEEDED to replace them otherwise if carbon monoxide were to seep into the apartment it could lead to disaster.
@@shgurr I'm glad that you're back and are doing better mentally, Shannon! I remember when I watched your "draw my life" 4-parter back when you first put it out and I was heartbroken to hear of all that you had gone through, and I was happy that you were better, or so it seemed at the time. Then, all that stuff happened with your feet and I heard how you had contemplated suicide again! I'm so happy that you're in a better place mentally, that you're back making storytime videos, and that you un-Privated your "draw my life" 4-parter! I know that they have helped people and that they will continue to do so.
You're in danger if your fire alarm is doubling as a carbon monoxide detector. Carbon monoxide doesn't rise. You need to get a proper carbon monoxide detector.
Also, some fire alarms have different beeps for fire vs monoxide, and the "activated" one usually has the indicator light blinking. This is helpful to diagnose repeated or false alarms. It's important to be familiar with safety equipment! So glad everyone was okay in this case
I knew exactly where the story was going before you even started. I’ve read too many stories of people unexpectedly dying from carbon monoxide poisoning and it’s one of those extreme fears that I have. So thank you for bringing that up before bed 😩
Your best defense against stuff like this is knowing when it's happening and whether or not it should be fixed. Shugrr has survived ignoring this problem for a week. Surely you'll be fine if you address it immediately.
Her smoke detector must have been detecting very high amounts of carbon monoxide, as that gas doesnt rise. The CO meters should be at counter top / table height. For one on the ceiling to go off, the room must have been thick with carbon monoxide
yea my mom is paranoid about that crap. if she ever leaves gas going she IMMEDIATELY wakes us up and takes us outside the house edit: so ya already knew the signs
What freaked me out the most was not just how they nearly died of monoxide. But the fact that all the problems in her house are nearly identical to the ones in my home. The corroded Porch, the cracked window, the buster dishwasher and garbage disposal. We even had a similar problem with dryer not to long ago, only difference was it wasn’t life threatening. Great video nonetheless!
Usually the dishwasher not working is related to the garbage disposal since the drain for the washer is fed right into that. Fixing a dish washer usually involves cleaning all the tubes witch get really messy.
I've lived most of my life in a house built in 1923. Yep, you guessed it. Tons of lead paint, problems with our pipes, the basement was never finished, recently the doorknob lock broke and we had to take the old locking mechanism out, etc. (Basically, when the doorknob broke, we were stuck out in the hot weather until I managed to get us in by a side door- almost got stung by a wasp because there was a old was nest there that still had one in it. It's been greaaat.)
Yeah... regularly checking around your house for weirdness is a must. Once I was visiting my mother for the summer and I spontaneously started to itch and break out into hives like crazy. Our initial suspicion was that I had somehow developed an allergy to polyester and avoiding stuff made of it definitely reduced the intensity of the symptoms. Unfortunately, I was out of state (and poor) so I couldn't see a doctor about my issues until I returned home. Later I found out my mom's appartment had such a mold problem that her and her roommate had to leave after discovering it. Meaning that a few weeks exposure to bad mold made me develop a temporary polyester allergy; who knows how it could have been effecting my mom and her roommate who were living there for months/years.
I actually know a family that died from carbon monoxide poisoning. I'm very happy you guys figured out the problem before it got worse, that can be scary.
Calling it, it’s a video about carbon monoxide poisoning. That shits an invisible killer. Edit: CALLED IT! For real though you guys got crazy lucky. Carbon Monoxide can do some even crazier stuff, like make you hallucinate. I’m glad you all figured out the problem and got it fixed, or that could’ve gotten really ugly really fast.
Yup, don't wanna scare anyone but atleast where I live, It isn't super rare to see cases where people have a headache before going to bed and the next morning their found dead in their beds.
Honestly you should be proud of this story. Most young homeowners now don't know about these things because no one taught them any better. People need to look into the functions and maintenance on their home units and appliances to be aware of these things.
That’s why you have 2 alarms, separate carbon dioxide and monoxide detectors. The standard “fire alarm” goes on the ceiling and the monoxide detector goes near the floor. You can’t mistake them because the different gasses float and sink respectively. If the monoxide detector is on the CEILING and going off, you’re kinda screwed there, because it has filled up the ENTIRE room, and any room below it.
Sadly most places don’t have carbon monoxide detector, it’s just built in with the fire alarm. Which causes so much confusion. Honestly places need to be built with both more often, and have them have two separate alarm sounds so people know
The reason why it managed to dectect the carbon monoxide is because the ventilation system was picking it up and distributing it through the house. Without this constant uptake and dilution in the rest of the "normal air", the concentration of CO could had increased "down there" to seriously dangerous levels.
Hmm, does it sink? A quick google search indicates that carbon monoxide has a density of 1.14 kg/m^3 whereas air generally has a density of 1.292 kg/m^3. Very close, but this would indicate carbon monoxide floats very slightly in air. Other online sources indicate that it tends to disperse through a room rather than rising or falling.
@@kristinberthiaume7634 Precisely. While it would be EVEN WORSE if it was even slightly heavier than "air" (the key "element" here: oxygen); just by being "close" to the average density means it does neither: a) Deposit in a condensed "layer" on the very bottom (people usually breathe at almost 2 meters up). b) Slowly "escape" into the enviroment like hydrogen. -> It just "mixed" with the average air and stay "there" (so without the ventilation system diluting it, by the time it would reach "detectable" levels for the sensors it would be much more concentrated near its origin).
Holy hell, that was a most definitely a scary situation. CO poisoning is a silent and insidious killer, and I’m glad you were able to solve the problem before things got worse
I watched literally a minute in and I immediately knew--THE EVIL GAS LEAK When my mom was pregnant with me, our house had a gas leak. My whole family was tired and sick. The only way we knew what was happening was when my mom opened a window and my brother immediately perked up. The doctors had to fly my mom to a hospital to make sure she (and me) didn’t get too much brain damage. We ended up being okay, but I am definitely a little stupid from it :)))
can’t believe me and my family weren’t the only ones with this problem, late 2021 was when it hit us to but sadly never found out where it came from just kinda went away after a week, happy to hear you guys all made it safely that stuff is dangerous
I knew it was carbon monoxide as soon as the video started. This shit is really crazy, could have gone waaaaaay worse, you guys got really lucky. Thank God btw, stay safe Shgurr!
@@thetoythief8940 yup, she knew she didnt have a fire going on, and she did know the smoke detectors also checked for Carbon monoxide, so idfk why she didnt EVACUATE everybody, including herself out the house.
@@JeckaIsAnotherSpecies Where do you sleep? Where do you go? This is a particularly big issue especially in Countries like America where you are charged to hell and back. Legitimately it is safer for you to gamble on life/death then choose other alternatives at times.
And get separate detectors for CO and smoke. Carbon monoxide gas doesnt rise, so a ceiling smoke detector that doubles as a CO detector is next to useless. That's why it went off intermittently. The room would need to be bursting with CO for a ceiling detector to register the gas. CO meters are to be installed at table height
Here in Florida, propane dryers are really uncommon. At the start of the video, especially when you first mentioned the black air filter, my first thought was black mold. Glad you found the problem and got it fixed before anything REALLY terrible happened!
I'm gonna say it. You draw hands the best out of all the popular animation youtubers. Most people opt for blobs 99.9% of the time. You do a really good job, also I can see a huge improvement in many areas with your art after animation school. Keep doing a excellent job!!! 💝💝💝
Glad you guys are ok! I could list many things we've come across but here's just a few. A few years back we lived in a small apartment and below us was a bar. There were two apartments and we lived in the right one for a while then changed to the other side lol. Sorry I can't quite remember the years. We ended up having to move after I graduated cuz the landlord was raising the rent. Shortly after they found out there was carbon monoxide in there. I don't know for how long but I do know it was there some time while we lived there so yeah lol. Idk why but if feel a like any time after we move from a place shit gets fixed. Every time. Now we live in a much crappier apartment where our landlord, which lives right next to us, doesn't fix anything and mold grows on the walls of my room. No matter how much it's been scrubbed it always grows back. And that's just one of couple of things that need fixing here..
it sucks that you had to go through this, I'm glad it's over tho!, I'm excited to see a new video on your channel, as I'm sure a lot of people are!!, the art in this is really nice and cute, very well picked colours for everything aswell!!!
Ceiling mounted detectors are inadequate for carbon monoxide or dioxide detection. CO meters should be installed around 4 feet off the ground as CO gas doesnt rise. Tell a friend.
@@TheDramacist Yeah I know this. When they all started getting sick, I already knew it was CO2 poisoning, but I was pointing out when the entire chat started spamming it. But it is important to ha e CO meters in every home like you stated.
I'm so glad you're back shgurr! And even better that the carbon monoxide situation was handled. I hope you realize how inspirational you are to all of us animators and the community as a whole
Home ownership can be both a nightmare and something amazing. But damn, faulty equipment or issues with home can be terrifying. I’m glad you guys figured out the issues and I hope there’s no long lasting damage or anything
The moment you said you're friend was sick my first thought was "maybe carbon monoxide poising?" Then the second you said you all had headaches, I thought "definitely carbon monoxide poisoning". That stuff is no joke and everyone should be aware of it. Hopefully this video does exactly that!
Shgurr made a great point, if something seems off-DON'T WAIT! When i used to work for an appliance installation company the first thing i would do is check for a rotten egg smell near/in the house. No, you can't smell carbon monoxide, but it was for gas leaks.
You should also get the vents cleaned they can apparently build up dust and clog up and cause similar issues so(I have heard) it's common to get them cleaned every two years to avoid dust build up
For the people who own such smoke detectors: Some of them beep once randomly when they request a test phase. You have to push the main (and probably only) button on it to give it a testing phase, to check if it still works. Other smoke alarms beep to signify their battery running low (though most modern smoke detectors work for years on end) ⚠️⚠️⚠️❤️❤️❤️
Happy y'all are alive. CO poisoning is serious because, as you would know, it's colourless and odorless so you don't know it's there usually until it's too late. Stoked you figured it out and got it fixed, stay safe everyone ✌
I had to look up what kind of dryer would cause that, because I had never heard of it. Seems like it's only for gas powered dryers (which is practically unheard of here (Sweden) because generally all our appliances run on electricity.) So I learned something new today.
The second you mentioned that it was causing the alarms to go off, and you got headaches and dizzy spells, I assumed it was Carbon Monoxide. Thank you 9-1-1 shows for teaching me about poisonous gasses. Glad you were all okay!
Shgurr: We didn't know what was going on. Me: CO2 leak. Shgurr: Headaches and feeling sick... Me: CO2 LEAK. Shgurr: The fire alarm doubles as a carbon monoxide detector. Me: That's dangerous. CO DOESNT rise. Carbon monoxide or dioxide detectors should be at table height, ideally positioned adjacent to devices that can emit CO/CO2 like boilers, furnaces, dryers and grills. Please get specific CO/CO2 meters and position them correctly.
When I heard the symptoms I was like "oh they must be suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning" I really hope they're going to be okay (it can get to a point where your body can't tell the difference between carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide and you'll essentially slowly be poisoned to death get a carbon monoxide detector in your home even if it's a little pricey it's worth it for the Peace of mind)
I was literally screaming "LEAVE THE HOUSE!!! LEAVE IT YOU DIMBASSES!!! IT'S CARBON MONOXIDE!!" through the entire video. Unburnt gas can do massive and irreversible damage to your nervous system and respiratory system. I'm beyond happy you guys didn't use that machine too often.
The second you said “the smoke detector went off randomly” i knew this was going towards carbon monoxide, but i’d never heard of it coming from the dryer. Glad you’re healthy, monoxide is terrifying.
Congrats on your new home! Not sure if the service tech or anyone else pointed it out but the dryer vent can also become clogged with debris of lint from the dryer overtime, preventing exhaust flow and causing it to just backup and leaking out other areas or potentially catching fire. I recommend investing in a dryer vent cleaner kit for about $40 USD, to break up all the debris annually. I use a kit that has rods that interconnect with a bristle head tip. Newer dryers can sense and alert you when the vent is becoming clogged and needs to be cleaned but is best to do once a year. Also, every spring, be sure to use a 1 liter solution of 50/50 white vinegar and water @180 degrees F, to flush out the A/C drain lines. Improper draining can cause the A/C to shutoff or begin a slow leak with a possibility of developing into black mold, which has very similar symptoms at first - where some people are super sensitive until more severe symptoms develop, like memory loss.
My mom and I used to live with some friends of hers in a house that we loathingly call a "drafty old barn". It was an old Victorian house where we lived for *four years*. We lived in a college student neighborhood, so most of the houses in the area were controlled by slumlords who could get away with just about anything, bc the college students weren't very likely to call them out on it. Now, we live in the Midwest (of the United States), so winters were *cold*. In addition, we also get lake effect snow. The heating in this house was pathetic to say the least. We had to have it fixed a minimum of every year. And we have since learned that the vent that was in my room WASN'T EVEN CONNECTED TO THE HEATER! And we were there in the middle of a polar vortex one winter! I ended up having to sleep in my mom's room which was the attic, bc it had its own seperate heater that actually worked! There was a fireplace in the living room, so you'd think we could've used that for heat, right? Wrong! The slumlord couldn't even be bothered to hire someone to keep the chimney clean, so we weren't allowed to use the fireplace! The summers were insanely hot, and before any southerners try to get out my tail about how it's hotter there, remember, we live relatively near a lake, close enough that we get lake effect snow, meaning we also get humidity in the summers so bad you can practically drink the air. And that old barn didn't have any central air conditioning! We sweltered. And you know how I said, "drafty old barn"? That's because the drafts were nuts! You couldn't come within five feet of a door during the winter without feeling a chill! And the showerhead was pathetic, with terrible water pressure. It was so hard to get a good shower. And there was no dishwasher. It was all handwashing dishes. When we finally left the dang place, the landlord tried to sue us for damages that weren't our fault! Anyone who lives in Kalamazoo Michigan, beware the name Lukeman. He will only bring trouble.
When my grandma was still a kid, she was sleeping in her room with her sibling and then they woke up and started to feel really nauseated and had a really bad headache, after I while they started to feel drowsy again. Luckily there parents found out a tad bit sooner that there was a gas leak. They got the kids out and fixed it. After that my grandma got really paranoid about using gas in the house so she switched all fully to electric
Huh, ironically I worked in HVAC for a while and you would be _shocked_ how many people *don't* check their dryers, don't clean their lint trap, or have no idea when to change vent filters _if at all._ (^～^;)ゞ As soon as you mentioned the dryer and the heat build-up I thought it was a lint trap issue. Not quite, but glad you have the luxury of _breating_ again. I hope you all had a full recovery. (^ ^;)ゝ
(tldr: I lived in a basement and it flooded with sewer water twice) I once lived in the basement of a house and called it my cave, one morning I woke up to a wet spot on the floor (it was shag carpet), it wasn't too big and I assumed it was one of the cats we had. I dried up the spot and cleaned it and came back an hour or two later and there was another puddle this time it was way bigger. I was confused where the water was coming from since there was no faucets or leaks from the ceiling, it turned out to be a drain hidden behind a built in couch that was never sealed off and it was sewer water coming in. The problem got fixed and I removed the carpet and made sure no mold grew, a little while later I was to surprised to see it flooded again. This time it was the past owners who had glued a planters peanut lid to make a diy sewer drain pipe cap thing (I forget the proper name of it), had to call in the plumber again. Absolutely disgusting both times. In the end I had to pump out 180+ gallons of water, yeah gross.
Props to the fire detector that can detect the Carbone monoxide and props to you for seeing that pipe vent popped out cause I never knew it was possible
At my old house for some reason the water heater heat vent was disconnected... What that did was spew all the heat into the garage and made it near unbearable to stay near. In the new house the fuse box was faulty and was short circuiting constantly which multiplied the electric bill 8-10x and the power would trip. There's also all the leaky pipes which made for a constant drain. When moving my best advice is to double check when the last tenant was there and how long the utilities were disconnected because this stuff degrades easily when not in use. Meaning seals dry out and break, bugs get where they shouldn't and pests chew through everything. Get this stuff fixed and checked ASAP!!! Or else you get stuck with multiple $300+ bills as soon as or the month after you move in. Hell the first bill was multiple hundreds for just the first 1-2 weeks living there even though we were still too busy transporting the remaining belongings to actually use the utilities. I'm still a little miffed at how the landlord handled it as if we were the problem. It wasn't until the fuse replacement that things showed just how neglectful they had been. It's what you get when the 'electrician' and 'plumbers', if they even hired specialist at all, are sloppy. Also though not as obvious take pictures of any damages or repairs before moving, just in case the landlord is ignorant. Don't want to lose the security deposit for something so stupid.
While going to high school, my Dad, my Mom, and my brother, in that order, were getting sick and I could tell it was going to happen to me next, which it did. As it turned out, the gasket on the fridge failed which caused the food inside to go bad. It's been so long, but I'm glad to see you're back and have hopefully been doing alright since this happened.
Thank you for this. I never considered if the dryer in my rental house is electric or gas. It’s electric I just checked. It vents into the garage as the garage was an add on. We deal with the humidity by cracking open the garage door. But I panicked for a minute. Even though I’m safe, I’m glad that I have new safety knowledge. Had mine been gas, that could have been a huge issue.
Also keep a check on your dryer since it can collect dust inside the area that collects dust trap if it has one, so if you smell slight burning you may need to get it checked.
Also the burning smell is because that piled up dust can catch on fire so either be sure to keep it clean or have extinguisher or have the fire department on speed dial. My family got lucky that when need get a part repaired the repair guy found this out and clean it up for us.
This is why most smoke detectors nowadays have different beep patterns for fire and CO and usually also say which one they're detecting after the beeps
i'm from another country and have never heard of a dryer releasing carbon monoxide. is this dryer powered by burning natural gas or something? here we only have electric ones
Before finishing this video I knew exactly what it was. I almost lost my husband (way before we moved in together and got married) and I lost two of my friends early last year (brothers) due to carbon monoxide poisoning. When my husband and I started getting on and off headaches last month I got paranoid and saw that the carbon monoxide detector's batteries died. Thankfully it didn't go off (besides the few "testing" beeps it will do when you put the batteries in) and there was a storm the next day. After that passed the headaches were gone. For a moment though I almost passed out when I was trying to put the batteries in because I was so scared that I was going to die like my friends did. Check your carbon monoxide detector's batteries frequently. If you don't have one, report it because every house is required to have one.
I'm glad that things turned out well in the end for you! ALSO here's a big warning to everyone please don't leave a space heater on unattended..just please don't, they can lead to fires..
Omg that’s happened to me too, I got so sick, I had to be hospitalized for 3 to 4 weeks. My whole body almost failed on me, but they took very good care of me in the hospital, and I am healthy now😊👍🏻
while listening to this i knew it would either be carbon monoxide or black mold based off of the symptoms. it's really scary how fast and secretly something like this can happen
Thank you for reminding me to replace the battery in my detector. Especially since it's winter and starting to get down to 10-15 degrees out already and ive got the furnace running. Always good to have a CO and smoke detector working.
Back in 2019, me and my family had an extremely old furnace, and it ended up releasing carbon monoxide into the air for several months, and I would always get sick to the point I started getting in trouble with my school for missing over 30 days in a year.

Also thank your detectors, they could save your own life someday

Honestly, the smoke detectors should 100% shout “carbon monoxide” when stuff goes haywire. It would be a lot more helpful that *beep BEEP*

Yikes, that’s pretty serious. Luckily it only came when the machine was on. If it was a constant flow, I don’t think anyone would’ve survived
Her smoke detector must have been detecting very high amounts of carbon monoxide, as that gas doesnt rise. The CO meters should be at counter top / table height. For one on the ceiling to go off, the room must have been thick with carbon monoxide
@@TheDramacist omg that’s scary
@@TheDramacist coulda just been blowing about instead of a doom wave of rising death
Pretty proud of myself for instantly being able to identify Carbon Monoxide poisoning. Makes me feel safer in case it should happen in my future home
they taught me all the symptoms in driver's ed! i think its a law here in minnesota now that it has to be taught in driver's ed
@@rachelnelson3765 I only know because of all the stories I've heard about "How I was slowly dying to carbon monoxide poisoning." lol
yea my mom is paranoid about that crap. if she ever leaves gas going she IMMEDIATELY wakes us up and takes us outside the house
edit: so ya already knew the signs
The issue is... you can't identify it while sleeping, until you don't wake up.
What freaked me out the most was not just how they nearly died of monoxide. But the fact that all the problems in her house are nearly identical to the ones in my home. The corroded Porch, the cracked window, the buster dishwasher and garbage disposal. We even had a similar problem with dryer not to long ago, only difference was it wasn’t life threatening.
Great video nonetheless!
Usually the dishwasher not working is related to the garbage disposal since the drain for the washer is fed right into that. Fixing a dish washer usually involves cleaning all the tubes witch get really messy.
I've lived most of my life in a house built in 1923. Yep, you guessed it. Tons of lead paint, problems with our pipes, the basement was never finished, recently the doorknob lock broke and we had to take the old locking mechanism out, etc. (Basically, when the doorknob broke, we were stuck out in the hot weather until I managed to get us in by a side door- almost got stung by a wasp because there was a old was nest there that still had one in it. It's been greaaat.)
Yeah... regularly checking around your house for weirdness is a must. Once I was visiting my mother for the summer and I spontaneously started to itch and break out into hives like crazy. Our initial suspicion was that I had somehow developed an allergy to polyester and avoiding stuff made of it definitely reduced the intensity of the symptoms. Unfortunately, I was out of state (and poor) so I couldn't see a doctor about my issues until I returned home.
Later I found out my mom's appartment had such a mold problem that her and her roommate had to leave after discovering it. Meaning that a few weeks exposure to bad mold made me develop a temporary polyester allergy; who knows how it could have been effecting my mom and her roommate who were living there for months/years.
I actually know a family that died from carbon monoxide poisoning. I'm very happy you guys figured out the problem before it got worse, that can be scary.
Jesus Christ Shgurr, must have been frustrating for you. Glad everything worked out.☺️

Calling it, it’s a video about carbon monoxide poisoning. That shits an invisible killer.
Edit: CALLED IT! For real though you guys got crazy lucky. Carbon Monoxide can do some even crazier stuff, like make you hallucinate. I’m glad you all figured out the problem and got it fixed, or that could’ve gotten really ugly really fast.
well, looks like you were right. It was from the dryer
You were correct!
Right! If it was a constant flow of that, they prob would’ve died or knocked out
Yup, don't wanna scare anyone but atleast where I live, It isn't super rare to see cases where people have a headache before going to bed and the next morning their found dead in their beds.
I straight up heard the intermittent beeping thing, and then I knew. Lol
Honestly you should be proud of this story. Most young homeowners now don't know about these things because no one taught them any better. People need to look into the functions and maintenance on their home units and appliances to be aware of these things.
That’s why you have 2 alarms, separate carbon dioxide and monoxide detectors. The standard “fire alarm” goes on the ceiling and the monoxide detector goes near the floor. You can’t mistake them because the different gasses float and sink respectively. If the monoxide detector is on the CEILING and going off, you’re kinda screwed there, because it has filled up the ENTIRE room, and any room below it.
Oh I didn't know know what it did and what it was I had a smoke detector but I didn't know what a carbon monoxide detector was.
Sadly most places don’t have carbon monoxide detector, it’s just built in with the fire alarm. Which causes so much confusion. Honestly places need to be built with both more often, and have them have two separate alarm sounds so people know
The reason why it managed to dectect the carbon monoxide is because the ventilation system was picking it up and distributing it through the house.
Without this constant uptake and dilution in the rest of the "normal air", the concentration of CO could had increased "down there" to seriously dangerous levels.
Hmm, does it sink? A quick google search indicates that carbon monoxide has a density of 1.14 kg/m^3 whereas air generally has a density of 1.292 kg/m^3. Very close, but this would indicate carbon monoxide floats very slightly in air. Other online sources indicate that it tends to disperse through a room rather than rising or falling.
@@kristinberthiaume7634 Precisely.
While it would be EVEN WORSE if it was even slightly heavier than "air" (the key "element" here: oxygen); just by being "close" to the average density means it does neither:
a) Deposit in a condensed "layer" on the very bottom (people usually breathe at almost 2 meters up).
b) Slowly "escape" into the enviroment like hydrogen.
-> It just "mixed" with the average air and stay "there" (so without the ventilation system diluting it, by the time it would reach "detectable" levels for the sensors it would be much more concentrated near its origin).
Holy hell, that was a most definitely a scary situation. CO poisoning is a silent and insidious killer, and I’m glad you were able to solve the problem before things got worse
I watched literally a minute in and I immediately knew--THE EVIL GAS LEAK
When my mom was pregnant with me, our house had a gas leak. My whole family was tired and sick. The only way we knew what was happening was when my mom opened a window and my brother immediately perked up. The doctors had to fly my mom to a hospital to make sure she (and me) didn’t get too much brain damage. We ended up being okay, but I am definitely a little stupid from it :)))
Shannon, out of all the animators on TH-cam, I personally enjoy your work the most. Keep it up!
The very first Animation channel I loved to watch was Shgurrs.
Your art style has slowly moved close to a Scott Pilgrim-esque style. NICE
I thought the same thing!!
I actually think it looks really good!
Smoke alarm: There's a fire!
Shgurr: No there's not-
Smoke alarm: *DID I STUTTER?*
Also, lovin' the slightly new art style!! :D
DID I ST-t-t-t-t-t-TUTTER?!
Yes, yes you did. You stuttered.
can’t believe me and my family weren’t the only ones with this problem, late 2021 was when it hit us to but sadly never found out where it came from just kinda went away after a week, happy to hear you guys all made it safely that stuff is dangerous
6:53 WAIT THATS MY ART! TANKS FOR USING IT!! ^^
OMG WHICH ONE!
ive always liked ur channel because how interesting and meaningful ur stories are! glad to see ur back with new content :)

I knew it was carbon monoxide as soon as the video started.
This shit is really crazy, could have gone waaaaaay worse, you guys got really lucky.
Thank God btw, stay safe Shgurr!
As soon i heard the alarm goes off every time I knew it
@@thetoythief8940 yup, she knew she didnt have a fire going on, and she did know the smoke detectors also checked for Carbon monoxide, so idfk why she didnt EVACUATE everybody, including herself out the house.

I love how you frequently change animating styles.
How do you animate so well lol
Why is animating so hard ;-;
Your style is so cute i love it
Can we all just appreciate the fact that Shugr came back after all this time to give us some exceptionally good advice?
One of my roommates from BYUI lost his entire family to a gas leak in his house.
Seriously, install and trust your alarms. They will save your life.
And get separate detectors for CO and smoke. Carbon monoxide gas doesnt rise, so a ceiling smoke detector that doubles as a CO detector is next to useless. That's why it went off intermittently. The room would need to be bursting with CO for a ceiling detector to register the gas.
CO meters are to be installed at table height
Here in Florida, propane dryers are really uncommon. At the start of the video, especially when you first mentioned the black air filter, my first thought was black mold. Glad you found the problem and got it fixed before anything REALLY terrible happened!
I'm gonna say it. You draw hands the best out of all the popular animation youtubers. Most people opt for blobs 99.9% of the time.
You do a really good job, also I can see a huge improvement in many areas with your art after animation school.
Keep doing a excellent job!!! 💝💝💝
Glad you guys are ok! I could list many things we've come across but here's just a few.
A few years back we lived in a small apartment and below us was a bar. There were two apartments and we lived in the right one for a while then changed to the other side lol. Sorry I can't quite remember the years. We ended up having to move after I graduated cuz the landlord was raising the rent. Shortly after they found out there was carbon monoxide in there. I don't know for how long but I do know it was there some time while we lived there so yeah lol.
Idk why but if feel a like any time after we move from a place shit gets fixed. Every time.
Now we live in a much crappier apartment where our landlord, which lives right next to us, doesn't fix anything and mold grows on the walls of my room. No matter how much it's been scrubbed it always grows back. And that's just one of couple of things that need fixing here..
it sucks that you had to go through this, I'm glad it's over tho!, I'm excited to see a new video on your channel, as I'm sure a lot of people are!!, the art in this is really nice and cute, very well picked colours for everything aswell!!!
I love how everyone knew it was Carbon Monoxide Poisoning as soon as you started saying the fire alarm was going off 🤣
Ceiling mounted detectors are inadequate for carbon monoxide or dioxide detection. CO meters should be installed around 4 feet off the ground as CO gas doesnt rise. Tell a friend.
@@TheDramacist Yeah I know this. When they all started getting sick, I already knew it was CO2 poisoning, but I was pointing out when the entire chat started spamming it. But it is important to ha e CO meters in every home like you stated.
“We we’re slowly dying…”
*PREMIERES SATURDAY, APRIL 16TH IN 5 HOURS! SET A NOTIFICATION TO BE THERE!*

It’s been fixed.

hi
I'm so glad you're back shgurr! And even better that the carbon monoxide situation was handled. I hope you realize how inspirational you are to all of us animators and the community as a whole
Home ownership can be both a nightmare and something amazing. But damn, faulty equipment or issues with home can be terrifying. I’m glad you guys figured out the issues and I hope there’s no long lasting damage or anything
The moment you said you're friend was sick my first thought was "maybe carbon monoxide poising?" Then the second you said you all had headaches, I thought "definitely carbon monoxide poisoning". That stuff is no joke and everyone should be aware of it. Hopefully this video does exactly that!
I love the new design so much
Shgurr made a great point, if something seems off-DON'T WAIT!
When i used to work for an appliance installation company the first thing i would do is check for a rotten egg smell near/in the house. No, you can't smell carbon monoxide, but it was for gas leaks.
"Being an adult is fine, *I promise.* "
I'm not going to disagree, but if anyone has the option... Go back!
You should also get the vents cleaned they can apparently build up dust and clog up and cause similar issues so(I have heard) it's common to get them cleaned every two years to avoid dust build up
So glad you were able to figure out the dryer issue! I'll definitely check on stuff like this when I get my own house someday
Bro I love your voice. I'm glad yall are okay. :3
For the people who own such smoke detectors: Some of them beep once randomly when they request a test phase. You have to push the main (and probably only) button on it to give it a testing phase, to check if it still works. Other smoke alarms beep to signify their battery running low (though most modern smoke detectors work for years on end) ⚠️⚠️⚠️❤️❤️❤️
Happy y'all are alive. CO poisoning is serious because, as you would know, it's colourless and odorless so you don't know it's there usually until it's too late. Stoked you figured it out and got it fixed, stay safe everyone ✌
1:26 on days like these, kids like you...

Beat me to it
I had to look up what kind of dryer would cause that, because I had never heard of it. Seems like it's only for gas powered dryers (which is practically unheard of here (Sweden) because generally all our appliances run on electricity.) So I learned something new today.
The second you mentioned that it was causing the alarms to go off, and you got headaches and dizzy spells, I assumed it was Carbon Monoxide. Thank you 9-1-1 shows for teaching me about poisonous gasses. Glad you were all okay!
Shgurr: We didn't know what was going on.
Me: CO2 leak.
Shgurr: Headaches and feeling sick...
Me: CO2 LEAK.
Shgurr: The fire alarm doubles as a carbon monoxide detector.
Me: That's dangerous. CO DOESNT rise. Carbon monoxide or dioxide detectors should be at table height, ideally positioned adjacent to devices that can emit CO/CO2 like boilers, furnaces, dryers and grills. Please get specific CO/CO2 meters and position them correctly.
I was thinking the same thing 😅
Literally I suspected a CO2 leak right away. I agree with this whole comment
Co2 is carbon dioxide.
Co2 is Carbon Dioxide, CO is Carbon Monoxide. Confusing but Co2 isn’t the toxic one (but not air still)
So glad your doing a lot better and your new art style and outfit is so darn cute I love it keep being better!
When I heard the symptoms I was like "oh they must be suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning" I really hope they're going to be okay (it can get to a point where your body can't tell the difference between carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide and you'll essentially slowly be poisoned to death get a carbon monoxide detector in your home even if it's a little pricey it's worth it for the Peace of mind)
I was literally screaming "LEAVE THE HOUSE!!! LEAVE IT YOU DIMBASSES!!! IT'S CARBON MONOXIDE!!" through the entire video. Unburnt gas can do massive and irreversible damage to your nervous system and respiratory system. I'm beyond happy you guys didn't use that machine too often.
The second you said “the smoke detector went off randomly” i knew this was going towards carbon monoxide, but i’d never heard of it coming from the dryer. Glad you’re healthy, monoxide is terrifying.
3:16 bars

My thoughts exactly lmao
as soon as i heard that smoke detector bit i KNEWWWW, but seriously thank goodness y'all are ok!

Congrats on your new home!
Not sure if the service tech or anyone else pointed it out but the dryer vent can also become clogged with debris of lint from the dryer overtime, preventing exhaust flow and causing it to just backup and leaking out other areas or potentially catching fire. I recommend investing in a dryer vent cleaner kit for about $40 USD, to break up all the debris annually. I use a kit that has rods that interconnect with a bristle head tip. Newer dryers can sense and alert you when the vent is becoming clogged and needs to be cleaned but is best to do once a year.
Also, every spring, be sure to use a 1 liter solution of 50/50 white vinegar and water @180 degrees F, to flush out the A/C drain lines. Improper draining can cause the A/C to shutoff or begin a slow leak with a possibility of developing into black mold, which has very similar symptoms at first - where some people are super sensitive until more severe symptoms develop, like memory loss.
My mom and I used to live with some friends of hers in a house that we loathingly call a "drafty old barn". It was an old Victorian house where we lived for *four years*. We lived in a college student neighborhood, so most of the houses in the area were controlled by slumlords who could get away with just about anything, bc the college students weren't very likely to call them out on it. Now, we live in the Midwest (of the United States), so winters were *cold*. In addition, we also get lake effect snow. The heating in this house was pathetic to say the least. We had to have it fixed a minimum of every year. And we have since learned that the vent that was in my room WASN'T EVEN CONNECTED TO THE HEATER! And we were there in the middle of a polar vortex one winter! I ended up having to sleep in my mom's room which was the attic, bc it had its own seperate heater that actually worked! There was a fireplace in the living room, so you'd think we could've used that for heat, right? Wrong! The slumlord couldn't even be bothered to hire someone to keep the chimney clean, so we weren't allowed to use the fireplace!
The summers were insanely hot, and before any southerners try to get out my tail about how it's hotter there, remember, we live relatively near a lake, close enough that we get lake effect snow, meaning we also get humidity in the summers so bad you can practically drink the air. And that old barn didn't have any central air conditioning! We sweltered.
And you know how I said, "drafty old barn"? That's because the drafts were nuts! You couldn't come within five feet of a door during the winter without feeling a chill!
And the showerhead was pathetic, with terrible water pressure. It was so hard to get a good shower.
And there was no dishwasher. It was all handwashing dishes.
When we finally left the dang place, the landlord tried to sue us for damages that weren't our fault!
Anyone who lives in Kalamazoo Michigan, beware the name Lukeman. He will only bring trouble.
When my grandma was still a kid, she was sleeping in her room with her sibling and then they woke up and started to feel really nauseated and had a really bad headache, after I while they started to feel drowsy again. Luckily there parents found out a tad bit sooner that there was a gas leak. They got the kids out and fixed it. After that my grandma got really paranoid about using gas in the house so she switched all fully to electric

Huh, ironically I worked in HVAC for a while and you would be _shocked_ how many people *don't* check their dryers, don't clean their lint trap, or have no idea when to change vent filters _if at all._ (^～^;)ゞ
As soon as you mentioned the dryer and the heat build-up I thought it was a lint trap issue. Not quite, but glad you have the luxury of _breating_ again. I hope you all had a full recovery. (^ ^;)ゝ
(tldr: I lived in a basement and it flooded with sewer water twice)
I once lived in the basement of a house and called it my cave, one morning I woke up to a wet spot on the floor (it was shag carpet), it wasn't too big and I assumed it was one of the cats we had. I dried up the spot and cleaned it and came back an hour or two later and there was another puddle this time it was way bigger. I was confused where the water was coming from since there was no faucets or leaks from the ceiling, it turned out to be a drain hidden behind a built in couch that was never sealed off and it was sewer water coming in. The problem got fixed and I removed the carpet and made sure no mold grew, a little while later I was to surprised to see it flooded again. This time it was the past owners who had glued a planters peanut lid to make a diy sewer drain pipe cap thing (I forget the proper name of it), had to call in the plumber again. Absolutely disgusting both times. In the end I had to pump out 180+ gallons of water, yeah gross.
WELCOME BACK!!

@@thaihuynh7850 yes, they mentioned it in the community tab
Props to the fire detector that can detect the Carbone monoxide and props to you for seeing that pipe vent popped out cause I never knew it was possible
At my old house for some reason the water heater heat vent was disconnected... What that did was spew all the heat into the garage and made it near unbearable to stay near.
In the new house the fuse box was faulty and was short circuiting constantly which multiplied the electric bill 8-10x and the power would trip. There's also all the leaky pipes which made for a constant drain. When moving my best advice is to double check when the last tenant was there and how long the utilities were disconnected because this stuff degrades easily when not in use. Meaning seals dry out and break, bugs get where they shouldn't and pests chew through everything. Get this stuff fixed and checked ASAP!!! Or else you get stuck with multiple $300+ bills as soon as or the month after you move in. Hell the first bill was multiple hundreds for just the first 1-2 weeks living there even though we were still too busy transporting the remaining belongings to actually use the utilities. I'm still a little miffed at how the landlord handled it as if we were the problem. It wasn't until the fuse replacement that things showed just how neglectful they had been. It's what you get when the 'electrician' and 'plumbers', if they even hired specialist at all, are sloppy.
Also though not as obvious take pictures of any damages or repairs before moving, just in case the landlord is ignorant. Don't want to lose the security deposit for something so stupid.
While going to high school, my Dad, my Mom, and my brother, in that order, were getting sick and I could tell it was going to happen to me next, which it did. As it turned out, the gasket on the fridge failed which caused the food inside to go bad. It's been so long, but I'm glad to see you're back and have hopefully been doing alright since this happened.
Oh my gosh! Thank goodness your guys are alright.❤️❤️
Glad I'm not the only one who's almost died before.
Same
Thank you for this. I never considered if the dryer in my rental house is electric or gas. It’s electric I just checked. It vents into the garage as the garage was an add on. We deal with the humidity by cracking open the garage door. But I panicked for a minute. Even though I’m safe, I’m glad that I have new safety knowledge. Had mine been gas, that could have been a huge issue.
That's terrifying D:
The worst thing that's happened in my house is the bathroom catching on fire
Ha, how did you describe my whole household situation?! Thankfully we fixed the dryer vent pretty quickly, but we need a new dryer.
Haven't watched the whole thing but im calling it right now ( 1:41 ) carbon monoxide poisoning
Also keep a check on your dryer since it can collect dust inside the area that collects dust trap if it has one, so if you smell slight burning you may need to get it checked.
Also the burning smell is because that piled up dust can catch on fire so either be sure to keep it clean or have extinguisher or have the fire department on speed dial. My family got lucky that when need get a part repaired the repair guy found this out and clean it up for us.
This is why most smoke detectors nowadays have different beep patterns for fire and CO and usually also say which one they're detecting after the beeps
That would be so scary tbh :0 I’m glad you guys finally figured it out
i'm from another country and have never heard of a dryer releasing carbon monoxide. is this dryer powered by burning natural gas or something? here we only have electric ones
There are gas dryers and electric dryers in the US. Gas dryers are apparently not used outside of North America.
Before finishing this video I knew exactly what it was. I almost lost my husband (way before we moved in together and got married) and I lost two of my friends early last year (brothers) due to carbon monoxide poisoning.
When my husband and I started getting on and off headaches last month I got paranoid and saw that the carbon monoxide detector's batteries died. Thankfully it didn't go off (besides the few "testing" beeps it will do when you put the batteries in) and there was a storm the next day. After that passed the headaches were gone. For a moment though I almost passed out when I was trying to put the batteries in because I was so scared that I was going to die like my friends did.
Check your carbon monoxide detector's batteries frequently. If you don't have one, report it because every house is required to have one.
“My house is actually as old as I am, so basically ancient”
*Laughs in 100+ year old Victorian house*
I'm glad that things turned out well in the end for you! ALSO here's a big warning to everyone please don't leave a space heater on unattended..just please don't, they can lead to fires..
Omg that’s happened to me too, I got so sick, I had to be hospitalized for 3 to 4 weeks. My whole body almost failed on me, but they took very good care of me in the hospital, and I am healthy now😊👍🏻
while listening to this i knew it would either be carbon monoxide or black mold based off of the symptoms. it's really scary how fast and secretly something like this can happen

Thank you for reminding me to replace the battery in my detector. Especially since it's winter and starting to get down to 10-15 degrees out already and ive got the furnace running. Always good to have a CO and smoke detector working.
