Stop the Number 1 Cause of Residential Fires Before Your Crew Rolls

Kitchen fires are the leading cause of residential structure fires, but traditional safety education relies on human behavior that often fails under pressure. FireBot provides a proactive engineering solution that neutralizes the threat at the source, allowing your department to "get ahead of the call".

The Macro-Economic Burden of Residential Cooking Fires

Automated stovetop suppression is essential given the high statistical density of residential kitchen fires. NFPA and FEMA data from 2017-2021 show an estimated annual average of 158,400 home cooking fires, resulting in 470 deaths, 4,150 injuries, and over $1.15 billion in property damage. The stovetop is the critical risk area: ranges/cooktops were involved in 53% of home cooking fires, yet accounted for a disproportionate 88% of cooking fire deaths and 74% of injuries, indicating a rapid transition to life-threatening events compared to other kitchen appliances. The following points further outlines the impact of cooking fires versus other residential fire causes.

While smoke alarms are vital for notification, they cannot stop a grease fire from escalating into a structure fire. National fire data highlights the severity of the stovetop problem:

fire
Leading Fire Cause

Cooking accounts for 44% to 49% of all reported home structure fires in the United States.

non-stick
The Deadly Cooktop

Ranges and cooktops are involved in 88% of all cooking fire deaths and 74% of all cooking fire injuries.

Response Load

Local fire departments respond to an average of 158,400 to 172,900 home cooking fires every single year.

Vulnerable Demographics

Adults aged 85 and older face a 5.5 times higher risk of dying in a cooking fire compared to the general population.

Professional Engineering: The UL-300A Standard

FireBot is the only residential stovetop system in its category to achieve the UL 300A certification. This is the "gold standard" for fire suppression, ensuring the device can detect, extinguish, and prevent the reignition of high-temperature grease fires.

Dual Smart Thermal Sensors

Unlike old-fashioned fuse technology, FireBot uses smart sensors that process thousands of data points every second to distinguish between intense cooking and a dangerous fire.

Proprietary Suppression Agent

The system deploys 1 liter of a non-toxic, biodegradable liquid that smothers flames, cools the surface, and applies a surfactant to prevent dangerous reflashes.

20 Year Operational Life

Designed for long-term Community Risk Reduction, the system features a 20-year service life with a single maintenance refresh at the 10-year mark.

Battery Powered Reliability

A 10-year battery ensures the system remains operational during power outages, with no professional wiring or plumbing required for installation.

Community Risk Reduction: A Force Multiplier for Your Department

Implementing automated stovetop suppression as part of your CRR strategy directly impacts department resources and firefighter safety:

01

Reduce Emergency Calls

Wide-scale deployment of FireBot has the potential to reduce fire department responses to home fires by up to 50%.

02

Preserve Response Resources

By suppressing fires at the source, you keep your crews and apparatus available for high-priority life-safety calls and complex rescues.

03

Minimize Firefighter Risk

Every kitchen fire neutralized by FireBot is one less structure fire that exposes your crew to “hot” responses, occupational hazards, and potential injuries.

04

Resident-Proof Protection

The tamper-resistant design ensures continuous protection that does not rely on resident compliance, training, or physical mobility.

Secure Your Funding and Protect Your Community

Don't let budget constraints stand in the way of safety. Our expert team is ready to help your department secure FEMA AFG or FP&S funding with pre-written grant narratives, technical data, and implementation roadmaps specifically designed for Community Risk Reduction.

Strategic Asset Protection: Eliminating Secondary Damage

FireBot fills the critical gap between detection and commercial-scale suppression, protecting property and reducing long-term costs:

Sprinkler Cost Avoidance

FireBot is engineered to activate before residential sprinkler systems. By using just 1 liter of liquid agent, it prevents the room temperature from reaching the threshold that triggers a massive, corrosive water discharge.

Insurance Premium Mitigation

Installation can lead to 5% to 15% savings on property insurance premiums by demonstrating proactive risk management.

Made in the USA

Every unit is designed, tested, and assembled domestically to meet the highest professional standards.
