FireAvert Home Fire Protection

As Seen on Shark Tank

March 9, 2016
Peace of mind, that is what FireAvert has brought to my household! It is tricky to review a product when you want it to do it's job, but don't ever want it to have it do it's job. Not sure you get my drift? Yeah, tough to word this one. I have my FireAvert plugged in and ready in the event of a fire. If enough smoke were to occur in my house to set off the smoke detector, I have peace of mind knowing that FireAvert will automatically turn off the power to my stove helping to prevent a fire. So, I don't want it to have to work, but I'm glad to know it is there and will in the event of trouble. It was easy to install and only took minutes to get it all hooked up.

Cooking is relaxing fun that brings families and friends together, but it’s also the number one cause of home fires and injuries. Every year, U.S. fire departments respond to an average of 162,400 home structure fires involving cooking equipment. These fires cause an average 5,400 civilian injuries and $1.1 billion in property damage. Cooking equipment is involved in 45% of reported home fires and unattended equipment is the leading cause of cooking fires of over 54% of non-fatal civilian cooking fire injuries when the victims try to fight the fire themselves.*

FireAvert quickly turns a stove into a smart stove to keep families, seniors and homes safe. FireAvert is the only product that prevents kitchen fires before they happen, by turning off stoves when smoke is detected. Because there is always smoke before a fire, FireAvert is activated by a smoke alarm sounding and cuts the power to the stove and oven immediately before there is a flame. 

FireAvert is especially important for seniors, who are twice as likely to leave a stove on. By preventing fires before they happen, FireAvert gives seniors, their children and their caretakers more peace of mind that the seniors will be safe on their own when cooking.

FireAvert is plugs right into the back of the stove, protecting homes from stove fires in minutes. FireAvert syncs to the smoke alarm and when it beeps, FireAvert cuts the power to the stove. FireAvert is designed to only cuts power if the stove is on and the smoke alarm is sounding for at least 15 seconds. Other noises such as loud voices, music, toys or TVs will not trip off the FireAvert. 

FireAvert requires no tools or professional skills and is reusable, maintenance-free and doesn’t expire. FireAvert comes with a 30-day money back and a 1-year warranty.  FireAvert is available for a Shark Tank special of $150. Click HERE to order.

FireAvert founder and active firefighter, Peter Thorpe, was called to kitchen fires weekly where someone often left their home with the stove on. He came up the idea of FireAvert, and developed and designed the solution to offer independence and peace of mind for the user.
