Stove safety for families

Forget a burner? CTS shuts the stove off before it becomes a fire

Between kids, work, and everything pulling your attention, a burner left on or a pot forgotten while helping with homework happens to everyone. The CTS Smart Kitchen Sensor is an always-on safety net that acts before a dangerous situation can escalate, so you can focus on your family, not your stove.

Why families choose CTS

Everything you need for a safer kitchen, in one system

Catches unsafe and unattended cooking early

Thermal AI reads the real heat on the stove and catches an overheating pan or a burner left on early, warning with voice and light.

Shuts the stove off automatically

If no one responds, the CTS Power Cutoff cuts power to the stove on its own, before a fire can start.

Alerts your phone, anywhere

With CTS Essentials Plus, get notified the moment something is wrong, in the next room or another city.

Watches unsupervised cooking

Know the stove is watched even when kids or teenagers are cooking unsupervised.

No camera in your kitchen

Thermal sensing only. It reads heat, not images, and never records video or audio.

Set up in about 10 minutes

No tools, no drilling, no electrician. It sticks above the stove and plugs in.

At the stove

An early warning system, and a backstop

The sensor mounts above the stove and uses thermal sensing, not a camera, to watch for dangerous temperatures and unattended cooking. It warns anyone nearby with a loud voice and flashing lights, and if no one responds, the CTS Power Cutoff shuts the stove off on its own. It catches what you miss, and prevents what you can't.

  • Catches unsafe and unattended cooking early
  • Shuts the stove off automatically if no one responds

Common questions

Kitchen fire safety at home, answered

How can I prevent a stove fire when I get distracted or busy?

The CTS Smart Kitchen Sensor watches for dangerous temperatures and unattended cooking and warns you with voice and light, and with the CTS Power Cutoff it shuts the stove off on its own if no one responds. It is a backup for the moments your attention slips, not a reason to leave the stove.

Is there an automatic shut-off for the stove?

Yes. Paired with the CTS Power Cutoff, the sensor shuts off power to the stove by itself when a warning goes unanswered. You restore power by pressing the button on the sensor once everything is safe.

Will it go off during normal cooking?

No. The sensor is built to tell normal high-heat cooking apart from dangerous or unattended cooking, so everyday searing and boiling will not trip it.

Is there a camera in my kitchen?

No camera. The sensor uses thermal sensing only. It reads heat, not images, and never records video or audio.

Can I check the stove from my phone when I am out?

Yes, with CTS Essentials Plus. You get push notifications for dangerous or unattended cooking and can check the stove or disable and lock it remotely from the CTS Mobile App. Essentials Plus is $59.95 a year.

What stoves does it work with, and who installs it?

It works with electric radiant, coil, and induction ranges, and you install it yourself in about 10 minutes. The sensor mounts with 3M Command strips and the CTS Power Cutoff plugs into a standard 240V outlet, 3-prong or 4-prong. No electrician needed.
