Kitchen fires remain the number one cause of fires in the home, and they often start silently—an unattended burner, a moment of distraction, or a forgotten pot. For families caring for children, seniors, or tenants, prevention matters more than reaction. That’s where iGuard Automatic Stove Shut Off from iGuard Home Solutions Inc. steps in.
Designed to intervene before a fire begins, iGuard combines motion sensing, smart timers, and remote monitoring to protect people, property, and peace of mind.
How iGuard Works
At its core, iGuard is an automatic stove shut-off system that continuously monitors kitchen activity.
Motion Sensor + Smart Timer
If the stove is left on and no motion is detected for 5 minutes, iGuard automatically cuts power or gas—stopping a potential fire in its tracks. Need longer, uninterrupted cooking? A manual timer lets you safely extend cooking time without disabling protection.
Wi-Fi Connectivity & Remote Access
With internet connectivity, caregivers and homeowners can:
- Receive real-time alerts
- Check stove status remotely
- Adjust settings from a smartphone or tablet
Whether you’re in the next room or across the country, iGuard keeps you connected.
Safety Features Built for Real Life
Child-Safe & Scheduled Locks
Prevent accidental stove use by children, pets, or late-night wandering. Caregivers can lock the stove during unsafe hours or disable it entirely when needed.
24/7 Activity Monitoring
iGuard doesn’t just watch the stove—it monitors movement in the kitchen day and night. This feature is especially valuable for aging-in-place scenarios, where changes in routine can signal a developing issue.
Ambient Temperature Sensors
Beyond fire safety, iGuard tracks high and low temperature thresholds, helping:
- Prevent exposure to extreme heat or cold
- Reduce the risk of frozen pipes
- Identify HVAC failures early
Alerts That Matter—When They Matter
With an optional alert subscription, iGuard sends customized notifications via text or email, including:
- Stove Turned On
- Automatic Shut Off Activated
- Good Morning Message (confirms daily activity)
- No Motion Detected (possible immobility)
- Unburned Gas Alert
- High/Low Room Temperature
- Loss of Communication (device needs attention)
These alerts turn the kitchen into a smart safety hub, not just a cooking space.
Insights: Turning Data Into Early Warnings
iGuard’s Insights reporting transforms everyday activity into meaningful trends:
- Daily Events show stove use and first movement of the day
- Calendar View offers a monthly snapshot of activity
- Memory Reports can reveal increasing reliance on auto shut-offs—often an early sign of cognitive decline
- Sleep Reports track late-night kitchen movement that may suggest sleep disruption or health changes
For families and caregivers, this data provides early, actionable awareness—not guesswork.
Who Benefits Most From iGuard?
- Seniors aging in place
- People with memory loss or mobility challenges
- Families with young children
- Rental property owners and landlords
- Caregivers managing safety remotely
In all cases, iGuard adds a layer of protection that works automatically, without relying on perfect memory or constant supervision.
Peace of Mind, Built In
iGuard isn’t about restricting independence—it’s about protecting it. By stopping kitchen fires before they start and quietly monitoring safety in the background, iGuard helps families focus on living, not worrying.
In a world where one forgotten burner can change everything, iGuard offers something priceless: time, safety, and peace of mind.
