Students, they know it all and they’re off to university to prove it, but have they got common sense?
In most cases they have but there are unfamiliar situations where they don’t use it. Students are vulnerable in many ways and Universities strive to provide safe and secure environments for young people. Although full blown fires in student accommodation are extremely rare, propped open kitchen doors and unattended pans on hobs are a cause for concern. With a student’s habit of late-night cooking this can be an accident waiting to happen, and it can happen very quickly!
After being approached by various student accommodation providers for a solution Hoyles Electronics developed a range of products to help reduce incidents in student residences.
Now installed in Universities up and down the country HobWatcher ensures hobs will only operate for a pre-set time if left unattended. DorWatcher prevents the spread of cooking smoke and in the worst case ensures kitchen fires are contained by ensuring kitchen fire doors are kept closed.
Chair of USHA commented:
“The risk of fire in student kitchens has been reduced to almost nil.”
