Automatic Shutoff Devices
Gas stove automatic shut off devices will turn off the range after a few minutes of non-use. NOTE: you’ll likely need a certified plumber to install one of these devices.
I’m impressed with iGuardStove. It has a built in motion detector and will shut off the gas after no motion has been detected for 5 minutes. For your peace of mind, it will send an alert to your smartphone. It also has a secret lock that allows a caregiver to lock the stove. The upgraded version also offers gas leak detection. NOTE: you’ll need a certified plumber to install
Other Stove Turn Off Devices
Some other devices we can recommend are…
- Simple Touch C30004 Auto Shut-Off Safety Outlet – this is a simple wall outlet with a built in timer that can be used on small appliances and other electrical devices.
- Fire Avert Electric Auto Stove Shut-Off Safety Device – this comes in a 3-prong or 4-prong model. This device syncs to your smoke alarm and cuts power to an electric stove if the smoke alarm goes off.
- Wallflower Smart Monitor for Electric Stoves – this plugs into the wall behind the stove and notifies you when an electric stove has been let on too long
