Fire and smoke safety for vulnerable residents

smoke-flame

Prevents fires and toxic smoke

Airis protects vulnerable people from the risk of fire and toxic smoke inhalation. It doesn’t wait for fires – it prevents them, and all without affecting everyday cooking.

false alarm

Avoids alarms and evacuations

Airis acts proactively, which means a drastic reduction of false fire alarm activations and unnecessary evacuations.

quality of life

Improves quality of life

Airis means safer cooking, bringing extended independence and an improved quality of life for anyone living with physical disability or cognitive diseases.

Airis stove guard prevents fires intelligently

Airis provides fire safety and peace of mind in accommodation for vulnerable people. This can include permanent as well as temporary accommodation – in rehabilitation, for example. It’s important for people to be able to cook for themselves to maintain their independence and sense of dignity.

In Extra Care and Assisted Living accommodation, Airis provides the highest level of fire safety, enabling people to cook safely for themselves without any intervention. But if the kitchen user does make a mistake, such as forgetting that they have a frying pan on the hob, Airis will intervene to prevent fire and smoke.

Airis provides peace of mind for all residents and care personnel.

Airis has a design life of 15 years and is made in a factory that specialises in high build quality. This encompasses automated state-of-the-art quality testing of the production processes, integrated with quality management. Unicook has visited the factory and inspected the end-to-end process first-hand. Each Multisensor and PCU assembly is electronically examined at many stages, culminating in a test at maximum load.

“This device works exactly as described and gives me great peace of mind as my relative is many miles away. Just as important though is the help and support from Unicook themselves, they made sure that the unit would do what I wanted it to do and could be fitted in the correct location. Even gave me a follow-up call to make sure everything was working as it should. I cannot fault the product or the service.”

“Installed for my ageing mother who is showing early signs of dementia. It is important that she maintains her independence as long as possible and, as the main cook in my parents’ household, my father can rest a little easier that she is safe when cooking. I have peace of mind that dad can relax a little and that mum can continue to enjoy one of her lifelong, favourite activities.”

“I bought this for an elderly relative who lives by themselves and who can be occasionally forgetful. As they cook for themselves, this product seemed like the ideal solution for peace of mind – both for my relative and for the family as a whole. A local electrician installed the product within 20 minutes… My only concern when buying the product was that it may be over-sensitive like smoke alarms can sometimes be, but this has not been the case.”

“My mum lives alone since my Dad passed away a couple of years ago and I was worried about her cooking… Now she wouldn’t be without it as over Christmas the phone rang and she forgot she was cooking. She said when she went back to the kitchen, cooking had stopped as the food she was frying started to burn and the Airis cut the power”
