- Security system, lights,
shades, EV's, thermostats, showers, faucets, speakers,
subwoofer in shower. (upbeat music) Okay, it is time for an
update of one of my favorite videos that we did on the house videos. One of the videos that we did
very early on in the process when we just had the wood on the walls and wires just sticking
out and going everywhere was all about the smart
home and the brains of our dream home. And so now that our house is complete, we've been living in it for
about a month and a half. We've had time to actually go through and enjoy the different
automation and controls that we have in the smart system. (upbeat music) It's time to show you what
we did inside of the house and hopefully give you some
ideas if you're building a house or if you just want to see
some of the top technology that you could have
inside of a house in 2020. Thanks to Hartwalker
Automation for installing all of this into our house. And TruAudio for sponsoring this video and for putting the amazing
speakers inside of our house and in the backyard. Before we even get inside
of the house we have to stop at the front door to show
you what kind of things that we did. And this is Klint, you
probably remember Klint from our other video, he
owns Hartwalker Automation. Klint and the other owner
Steve have been the ones that have helped us with this house and they've spent hundreds
and hundreds of hours putting in the wires and then
making sure everything works and then coming back
afterward to make sure that everything is fine tuned. Because you can put in
whatever nice things you want that's automated but the
real magic is when you go in the back end of it and you
actually get into the computer and you program everything
the way that you want it for your house. - So when you trying to
tie in an automation system it allows us to have like a
lot different aspects tied in. So soon as we press the
doorbell we kind of can control the lighting in the
house or we can kind of-- (Nintendo music)
- [Dan] What's in that? It's Nintendo. - Play different sounds,
whatever sound you like through the speakers whether
it's just on the entryway or out by the pool. - So there's a video intercom system. So there's a security camera I guess, a video camera on there
that goes to my phone that goes to all of the
different tablets inside of the house and you can
answer and talk to somebody. Let's go inside. Hi dog. What he's worried, we're
just doing a YouTube video. That's it, it's just a
video, it's all right. On our front door we don't
have anywhere for a key. The lock is actually a touch
screen that you can touch, put in your code whatever
it is, unlock it. And then when you shut the door. We programmed it at our house that after a certain time period
of the door being shut and no activity added,
it automatically locks. So Klint last time we were
here on the video we showed a ton of wires that was just
like a rats nest of wires. Let's see how organized
you've got since then. - If you remember all the
kind of lighting loads for the home we were coming into a few panels throughout the house
this being two of them. So essentially all the
lights were just for the home and located inside of these panels. So each of these modules. (lights clicking) That accounts for a light
somewhere in the house, we just turned it off. - We don't have the
typical lights that you see in most houses. These have programmable buttons. So this is the hallway right
here, there's the kitchen. Hartwalker actually named
every one of the light switches and then they've come
back a few different times since we lived here and said, okay you've been living
here for a while now, which ones make sense
and which ones bug you. Should we change some
of the light switches. So we've changed some of them. Say it's off, and we want it to go on, but I just want it to be
dim, and not be super bright. I can hold it down and
then just let go as soon as it's bright as I want. So if I want it 20%, 30%,
40% I could just hold it. Dimming, it's getting
brighter, brighter, brighter, and it just programs and goes up. We even have buttons in here
that you double tap on it and it shuts off all the
lights in the entire house. Or we have relaxed mode. All of the cam lights turned off. If it was night time you
would see that right up here we have some nice dim
lights that are going up. This is probably 15,
20% bright right there. We can control with these
buttons like we showed you. I can control on my control phone app but then we also have this touch screen that we can control the lighting on there. So we go to lighting, it's
got every single light in the house, to porch,
chandelier, we can turn it up to 100% to 0% and we have different scenes that are setup that's like
welcome turns the lights on to like a really nice one. This one of my favorites right here, it's called Living Romance. Check it out. Boom, the fireplace just turned on. Klint wanted to put some
like saxophone music on when that does that. - Like bow chicka wow wow. - I kind of vetoed that,
I'm fine without the music but it is pretty funny. So we can turn the house
on or off really easily with the touch pad. But there is also one
more, we have Alexa enabled inside of our house and we can talk to it. You've seen the video with our faucet and how we can just say, Alexa, ask Kohler to pour one cup of water. - [Alexa] Okay, here's Kohler
Konnect, dispensing one cup. - Alexa, turn the house off. - [Alexa] Okay. - All the lights go out. The doors just locked. There's so many controls and
that's why we've waited so long to make this video because
there's a learning curve. We gotta learn how to use all these stuff and then re-program it the
way that you want to use it. Alexa, turn the house on. I like it better with
the lights on in here. - [Alexa] Okay. - The last time when we
filmed our video with Klint we just had an entire wall
of wires just coming in and it was madness. And so now here we are
back in the same room. It looks a bit more organized. Do you know what all this stuff does? - [Klint] Oh yeah. - [Dan] This looks like
something that belongs inside of a business. - A lot of it does, a lot
of is commercial grade. We kind of took a little
more commercial grade approach on this. This is kind of all our network gear so it's all the Internet
stuff in the home. The smart home processors
are kind of all down here. We've got backup batteries
that kind of store some energy for us if the power ever
goes out so we can make sure the cameras are still recording and the network is still
kind of up and running. Video distribution so we can
kind of share all our video, all the Apple TV's, Blu ray
throughout the whole home. All our surround sound receivers and then these are all the
amplifiers for the house. So all kind of the
subwoofers in the house, all the speakers throughout the house, those are all the amplifiers for that. - And then behind it
you can see the wires, they're all nicely and neatly brought in and they're all plugged
into different places. And pretty much anywhere in
this house there's a wire. Whenever I'm like, you
know I'd really like to have the Internet
right here in this wall that connects to my computer, Steve's like all right
we can get the Internet, we got a wire behind this wall. And he just like goes in and has it, so. The Internet is one my favorite things. Right now we have a gigabit
up and gigabit down. (bow chicka wow wow voiceover) To show you what I mean,
this is a file from Easter. We had the Easter Bunny come by our house. Pretty cool, Easter Bunny just showed up. And this file is 2.92GB. So, if I go onto Google drive
and I drop this file in. 2.9GB, to YouTuber's this means a lot. I just pushed upload. It says less than a minute left already. At my old house we had 20 upload speed versus here around 900. So this probably would
have taken me 30 minutes maybe an hour. It just finished in less than a minute. And now it's uploaded to the drive. So my awesome editor can go
in here and work with it. But to show you, here's
the speed test page. Watch this. Speed test, go! Here's the download speed. We're pushing like 900. To all my YouTube friends
that are watching this. This is a big deal, the download speed. And now the upload speed
which is not something that you see that often of the
upload speed being very high. Because most people are
just downloading Netflix and watching shows. But for YouTuber's the upload
speed is super important and look at that. I'm pushing over 900 Mbps right now. That is fast, that is
fiber, that's gigabit. (bow chicka wow wow voiceover) And you're probably like why
do you have so many amplifiers? Well we have lots of
speakers in this house. How many speakers do you
think are inside of our house? - I've been asked that a couple times. I would say between like 150 and 200. Maybe 180 or 200.
- [Dan] Are you serious? - I bet we're pretty close to that, yeah. - (laughs) Oh my gosh. So there is one speaker
inside of the house that I need to get your opinion on. And it takes some convincing
to convince Leslie, so. We're gonna go ask her about it on camera. Let me show you the upstairs
view of what this is. (upbeat music) Okay, right now we are inside of the attic as you can see like
there's the roof up there. And then there's a bunch of insulation. Here's the air conditioner over here. And a bunch of that
cotton candy insulation. And then look right there. That is a subwoofer. It's a TruAudio subwoofer. Right below there is the shower. We have two speakers inside of the shower but they're like why
don't we put a subwoofer inside of the shower so
you can hear it better. I think that's a great idea. But in order to do that. (groans) Oh, my gosh. Okay, I'm back, I'm back in the house. In order to do it, we have to cut the tile in the top of the shower. It's a little bit of a process but we would have a
subwoofer in the shower. (upbeat music) Hey! - Hi! - [Dan] Okay, I need
your input on some stuff with the smart home. - Okay. - [Dan] This is Leslie. - Sorry, my eyes are
watering, that was fun. - [Dan] Wait, what?
(record scratching) - I was watching moving YouTube videos. - [Dan] What, moving YouTube videos? - No, like somebody was-- - [Dan] You're totally like crying. - Somebody just got the
ability to see in color. It was real, he was getting married and his wife gave it to him. It was really cute. - [Dan] Aww, so in the shower we have those two speakers right there. We were just talking about it. Don't you think this room
could use a subwoofer? - No! Klint, I said no like five times. It doesn't need a subwoofer. - [Dan] We just went
upstairs and guess what? It's already up there. It's just sitting there. Lonely and sad. - It's not lonely and sad. - [Dan] It's already above the room. - No, it's just so not needed
though, it sounds great. - [Dan] It sounds great? You don't want anymore bass? - No, I don't need anymore bass. (buzzer) - If we did it, Klint
show us where we'd go and what we'd need to do
to get this thing in here. - Right in between those two speakers probably center it in the rain head. We'd just cut a circle
and it'd look just like those two speakers. - [Dan] Oh, it'd be a circle like that. - Yeah, the cut, it'd look just
like one of those speakers. - But what if something
goes wrong with the tile? - This is a shower for three not for two. (record scratching) - What? (laughs) It's for one. - [Dan] He's talking about speakers. - Oh! (laughs)
- [Dan] Not people. So it'd just be a circle right there. So we just need to cut some of the tile. - But do you think the tile will be okay? - I think it would be fine. - We're gonna try this. We're gonna put a card right here. It's one of those things that you vote. So we're gonna say, should we
put a subwoofer in the shower? Go to this little card. It's like this little eye thing up here. Hover your mouse over or you
touch it with your finger and then you can vote yes or no. So, go ahead and vote. We'll leave the voting up for a week. - Yeah, I'm fine with that if
they say yes you can have it. - See it's up to you guys. (upbeat music) Inside of the master bedroom. This is one of the biggest
hits for the entire home show. We had 26,000 people
walk through this home and we also had some news
articles written about the house. They loved that we had hidden
speakers inside of our wall. This wall looks totally normal. This is sheet rock right here. And then on this side,
beautiful sheet rock. There is one thing down
here there's a big slit in the wall right here. So that is unusual to
have a slit in the wall. Master suite, listen, Dad's air play. The only song we do for every video. So instead of having big
ole speakers in the wall. We can hide them in the
wall and I can control with my phone and then
you just have music. (upbeat music) I can hear the subwoofer in that wall. And right here I can feel the bass. And I can feel the speaker
but you don't see it in there. Oh yeah, it's right there. I can tell the difference when I touch it. This is one of the coolest technologies that we have in our home. And we did it in three different
rooms inside of the house. I filmed the process of
how they installed this because that's a big question. How do you get speakers
inside of your wall? Lincoln and I are gonna make
a video on our main channel and we'll show you the whole
process of putting it in. We'll take one of those
speakers and take it apart because it's not like a
usual speaker that you see. - I think they're amazing. Like I've never seen anything like-- - [Dan] I can't hear you,
you gotta talk louder. - I know, I've never seen
anything like it before. I don't want to yell though. - [Dan] I can't hear you what did you say? - I was saying that I never
seen anything like it. When they showed it to me the first time I was like what on earth is this? This is so cool. - This is the Piano Room and right down here
you'll see a little slit. There is a subwoofer in the
wall right behind cello girl. And then up here we have
a couple more speakers that are way up there. We don't have to have the
actual visible speakers inside of this room. We've got a couple that are
up there and one over there. Lincoln's room, same thing. Also has a subwoofer that's
on this side of the bed and then he also has a
speaker inside of the wall right there next to his bed. So it's sounds really good. He does use those speakers a lot. Let's go upstairs and we
gotta show you the Movie Room. When you come upstairs
we have what we like to call the Movie Room. And this has a touch screen in here also just like every other room in the house. And you can control
everything from the Apple TV to the lighting even the
temperature in the house. You can control the temperature
in all the different zones inside of the house. This was supposed to be our Game Room but then once we put in
these beds that come down. You can see we have to
move the couch to even get the bed down, we wanted to
put a pool table right here. But once you put this middle
one down there's really not a very good amount of
room for the pool table. So we had a better option for this room. At least I think it's the best option. We call this the Movie Room now. And we put our OLED TV, the
wallpaper TV inside of here. We have the Select Series
TruAudio speakers right here, right there, right there. And then we have two giant subwoofers. These are $5,000 subwoofers
retail value, each one of them. They have 12 inch
speakers, two in each one. Leslie, her mouth just,
her jaw just dropped when I said how much they were. - [Leslie] I can't believe that. I just can't believe
that's how much it cost. - I know, 'cause they
are expensive speakers. We did a video a couple
years ago about Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, and I was
at CES and I listened to it and it sounded really cool. But now that we have
this five channel setup with all the speakers. We even have a bunch of speakers up here all along the walls. If you look up here and it says
Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision that means if you have
a TV that is capable and you have a sound
system that's capable. The image of the movie or the
TV show is gonna look so clean and crisp and also the
sound system is gonna be full surround sound versus just
two channel surround sound. And that sounds way better. I've watched the intro of Ford
v Ferrari probably 25 times because the first few seconds it just does this awesome sequence where
he's racing and it's loud. You hear all the cars
zinging around your head. I don't even know how heavy this thing is but I can barely lift it. It is so incredibly heavy. I think we need to find a
fun way to break this thing. (mechanical parts moving)
Oh, boy! (upbeat music) I gotta break inside of the speaker and see what's inside of it. All right, there you go. Movie Room must have it's not
your traditional Movie Room with like movie chairs and all that. But it's kind of fun 'cause we can all just kind of lounge in there. Come in and out. The security system, I'm not
gonna show you every camera that we have inside of
our house right now. So right now if you look
on our video camera footage it's tracking Klint and I just
walking down the driveway. And it will follow us all the way to the end of the driveway. And it has face tracking
software that will zoom in on people if we ever need
to potentially identify somebody that snuck into our yard or broke into our house. We have multiple cameras just like this. Like I'm not gonna tell you how many but it's over 20 cameras
outside and inside of the house that are generally
tracking us at all times of the day or night. That aren't just connected to wifi. We have our own servers
that they're connected to that are saving for
months and months of data. Okay, so check it out. Right now it's zoomed in on me. Watch what happens when I run up. Okay, I'm gonna run up this
way and watch how it tracks me. Hi camera, I'm right here. I see you on my phone. Look at this. It's still tracking me. I'm coming around the corner. Look at that, I'm coming around the corner and going inside the gate. And it's still tracking me going inside the gate this same camera. Bye. - To make sure that we had full
protection around the house. But we wanted to make sure we always had at least a minimum of two cameras picking up every location throughout the yard. So we made sure that no
matter what there was always two different angles
kind of picking up every spot. Most locations there's three or four that kind of pick it all up. It's a Lumens surveillance camera. It has pan tilt zoom but
it also has auto-tracking. And so it'll track down. We can setup face recognition if we'd like so it will not track certain
things or certain people. And then it will also send
alerts if it finds someone that it doesn't like or
it doesn't recognize. It'll send us an extra alert saying, hey we've got someone
that we're picking up but it's not someone that we recognize. - Obviously security
cameras aren't the answer to all things of security. There's other things you
need to do to lock your house and just be safe at your home. It does add some extra
comfort as a homeowner. Especially when we're somebody
that's online all the time to know that we do have
that layer of security over our home. So yes, love the security cameras. Security system, lights, shades,
EV's, thermostats, showers, faucets, speakers, that's a lot of things that are connected. Leslie, what is your favorite
thing about our smart home? - I mean I like being
able, it's just really being able to talk to it. - Sometimes I feel like she talks to Siri more than she talks to me. - Alexa. - Hey Siri, text this person. Siri, do this.
- I do all the time. - Siri, tell me how to get home. - Voice is super important to me. So I would say, I think
I talk to Alexa the most when it comes to the light situation. - I think we're going
to see some huge leaps in as far as the
technology goes with voice. We're kind of scratching
the surface right now. I know Gary Vaynerchuk
talks about it a lot that he loves where voice is going. If you used voice enabled
products in the past and you had a really bad experience. Just know that they are getting
better every single year as more and more companies
adopt it into their hardware. So thank you again to TruAudio
and to Hartwalker Automation for installing the smart home
inside of our dream home. These are things like you
saw in the video today that we never even thought
of or when they asked us at the beginning we
were like absolutely no, we don't need to have that. We never thought we'd have to
live inside of our home 24/7 because of the quarantine. We'll get you in a second, dog. She rings a bell when she needs to go out. Check out our video on
our What's Inside Channel where we destroy and
take apart a subwoofer to see what's inside of it. One of the world's largest subwoofers. If it's not out yet, it will be out soon. Watch the video on our
What's Inside Channel on how we see what's inside
of the in-wall speaker. If you're interested in learning more about TruAudio speakers
or Hartwalker Automation, I will put links in the description. You guys can go check
them out and you can learn for yourself or ask them questions about what things you might want to put inside of your house. Whether it's a new build
or an existing home. They can come in and
really upgrade your house and just make it smarter
and more comfortable and make your quarantine
time a little less dull. (dramatic music) And yes this is my tripod. I used my recycling bin as my tripod at the beginning in this video. (whistling) Was it Jake Paul? Did you get duped by Jake Paul's-- - No!
- Counter-blame video? Do you care for me more or Leslie more? - I'm okay with it, if you really want it. I just don't want to jeopardize the tile and I don't want to pay more money. That's all. That's all it's about. - Hi dog. Why are you following me? Thanks to Hartwalker
Automation for installing. (rewinding tape)
(deep murmur) - This is a shower for three not for two. Bow chicka wow wow. - Oh! (keyboard clicking) Dad! (keyboard clicking) (dog screams)
(bell rings)
