How Airis works

  • Make open-plan kitchens safe.
  • Meet BS 9991:2024 without the need for a fire lobby.
  • Fulfil fire safety standards where recommended escape distances cannot be met due to space constraints.

Airis is flexible and fail-safe.

The Airis stove guard range offers a variety of products with flexible mounting options to meet your design needs.

  • Airis can be wall-mounted for traditional kitchen designs
  • Mounting Airis on the cooker hood reduces the visual impact of the unit
  • Airis-C offers ceiling-mounted detection and fire prevention for kitchen islands without extraction hoods
  • SecureFit wall bracket offers extended battery life and anti-tamper casing

Thanks to its patented RobustLink technology, Airis maintains bi-directional, resilient communication between the sensor and the power controller at all times.

Read the case study
We selected the Airis BS EN 50615 system for the Hallsville Quarter development for its widespread use across the UK as well as its reliability and fail-safe design. With cooking fires accounting for approximately 50% of domestic fires, the system significantly enhances safety across the development. By preventing fires at their source, we're also reducing the likelihood of sprinkler systems being unnecessarily triggered, minimising potential water damage and disruption to residents.

How do stove guards compare with suppression technology?

BS EN 50615-compliant devices such as Airis stove guard offer numerous benefits when compared with suppression systems, like sprinklers and extinguishing hoods:

  • Long-term performance with minimal maintenance
  • No recharging, flushing, or system resets needed after activation
  • Simple, passive installation with no need for pipes, tanks, or venting
  • No water or chemical damage
  • Prevent chip pan and frying pan flashovers caused by sprinkler systems

Prevention, not reaction.

Airis is the superior choice for fire safety design. Traditional fire safety methods, such as smoke and heat detectors, fire extinguishers, and fire blankets can all be effective in limiting the injury and damage caused by kitchen fires, but they do nothing to prevent the fire starting in the first place.

Airis stops fires before they start. Using cutting-edge, AI-powered multisensor technology, Airis keeps a constant watch on the stove, monitoring cooking temperature, air temperature, smoke and steam, and human presence at the cooker. If temperatures become too high and cooking is left unattended, Airis acts swiftly to cut the power to the stove, preventing hob fires from ever starting.

Frequently Asked Questions Relating To Airis Products

If you don't find an answer to your question below, please visit our Knowledge Base

Who uses Airis?+
Airis is used in private homes and by housing associations, universities, local authorities, and fire services.
Do Airis stove guards have advantages over other makes?+
Yes. Airis technology is truly fail-safe. Other stove guards can be bypassed, in the event of a fault, by switching the power off and on at the wall. While other stove guards rely on a single infrared sensor, Airis stove guards use several high-tech sensing devices and AI-driven algorithms to ensure the power is cut at the earliest time without false alarm.
Is Airis suitable for people living with dementia or other physical or mental impairments?+
Airis is ideal for people living with neurodegenerative diseases, as well as those with cognitive and/or physical impairments, such as compromised mobility or eyesight. The person cooks on the hob in the way that they always have done, while being protected by Airis from a cooking fire.
Can Airis stove guards prevent smoke?+
Airis stove guards can greatly reduce the amount of toxic smoke from cooking oil becoming overheated, but can't eliminate it. Airis cannot prevent a pan boiling dry and creating smoke, however these situations are extremely unlikely to lead to a fire.
How long is the warranty on Airis products?+
Airis comes with an unlimited warranty for as long as your subscription runs. A one-off purchase comes with a 2-year manufacturer's warranty, which Unicook extends to 3 years when you register your product.
