Is Firechief® Kitchen Stove Guard the same as a heat detector?

The Firechief® Kitchen Stove Guard identifies risks quicker and cuts off the cooker power supply

The Firechief® Kitchen Stove Guard includes two types of heat sensors with unique learning functions and measures:

  • excessive temperatures
  • rate of temperature change 
  • ambient temperature.

This means that it reacts to cooker top fire risk indicators earlier than a normal heat detector or other cooker safety devices and cuts off the cooker power supply to prevent a fire from starting.
