SMART FIRE PREVENTION SYSTEM INSTALLED IN LUXURY APARTMENTS 

What was the need?

One Crown Place is the latest high-rise addition to London’s skyline, home to 246 luxury apartments, high-quality office space, boutique hotel and members club. The development features two prismatic towers of 28 and 32 storeys.

The Fire Safety regulations which apply to high-rise living accommodation meant that the open plan kitchens in each apartment would require a kitchen suppression unit to be fitted. Due to these units being highly visible the architects, designers and builders were open to the idea of an alternative, unobtrusive design-led fire prevention solution, such as the Firechief Kitchen Stove Guard.

The solution

The Firechief Kitchen Stove Guard provides a worry-free approach to managing cooker top safety without affecting cooking. The stove guard does this by alerting the user of pre-fire conditions and if no action is taken, it automatically turns off the electricity supply to the cooker.
