Cooking is the leading cause of fire in student accommodation, with the 17–24 age group experiencing significantly higher rates of non-fatal, fire-related injuries than older demographics. While smoke and heat alarms are essential, their reactive nature and susceptibility to false alarms can undermine safety in high-density living environments, such as university halls of residence.
Brunel University of London installed Airis stove guards on 680 hobs as a preventative, proactive solution to fire risk in student kitchens. By monitoring cooking behaviour and cutting power before fires can start, Airis addresses risk at its source – without relying on human intervention.
At Brunel University of London, all halls of residence with electric cookers are equipped with Airis stove guards in the campus kitchens to reduce the risk of cooking-related fires and prioritise the safety of our students. Their installation has significantly lowered the risk of fire incidents and greatly reduced the number of false alarms, preventing unnecessary evacuations and enhancing the overall student experience at Brunel.
