on 2/16/2009 Hello,

I would also like to recommend the StoveTop FireStop to prevent kitchen fires. StoveTop FireStop is an automatic fire suppressor that magnetizes underneath the venthood above the stovetop. When a stovetop fire occurs and flames reach the StoveTop FireStop, it automatically releases a fire suppressing powder onto the fire. The fire is smothered without you ever having to pick up a fire extinguisher and risk injuring yourself in the process. Thank you! stovetopfirestop.com

Video Transcript

"Some fire safety tips for your kitchen would be not to have your toaster plugged in too close to the sink or where water might be. It might start an electrical fire, or electrical shock. Move the toaster over somewhere else on the counter. On the oven, you need to make sure that the oven is cleaned properly- you don’t want any food buildup in there, and then you can possibly start a fire that way. Grease fires on the stove- make sure you do not put water on a grease fire, it’ll just spread the fire across the rest of the stove. That’s why it’s a good idea to have a fire extinguisher under the sink or next to the stove. "
