The story of a family's close call with a house fire is a powerful reminder of the importance of fire safety preparedness. While smoke detectors and an action plan undoubtedly saved lives, it's crucial to consider: what if the fire had started in the kitchen? Kitchen fires are among the most common household fires but are also largely preventable.
There is an easy replacement part that can be added to every household in America. It prevents a fire from erupting on the stovetop. Considering most home fires start in the kitchen, this is a mitigation tool every home and residence should have.
Creating a Safer Kitchen Environment
To protect your home and loved ones from kitchen fires, consider these essential safety
measures:
To mitigate your risk:
Install a Goli Electric stovetop “Cooking Temperature Limit” (CTL) technology for electric stoves, gas, and induction ranges/cooktops

Fire Prevention Safety Tips:
Install smoke detectors near the kitchen area and test them regularly
Keep a fire extinguisher rated for kitchen fires (Class ABC) easily accessible
Never leave cooking unattended, especially when using oil or high-heat
Keep flammable items like dish towels, wooden utensils, and food packaging away
from the stovetop
Clean cooking surfaces regularly to prevent grease buildup
Wear short or close-fitting sleeves while cooking to avoid accidental ignition
Turn pot handles inward to prevent accidental spills and burns
