The scents of roasting, cooking and baking are never far away, but sometimes those scents can be accompanied by less appealing ones—smoke and burnt food. It’s not only displeasing to your nose, but also important to deal with immediately. That’s why GE Appliances has designed a new oven that works with the Nest Protect smoke and carbon monoxide (CO) alarm to better detect fires in an oven and quickly alert the homeowners.
Nest Protect thinks, speaks and alerts you in real-time and on your phone when it detects smoke or CO. It also gives homeowners an early warning of an issue and lets them know where in the home smoke has been detected.
“Cooking should be an enjoyable experience, but we know that sometimes there are mishaps in the kitchen,” says Paul Surowiec, vice president, cooking products, at GE Appliances, a Haier company. “Our integration with Nest Protect helps us ensure that our connected oven owners are safer when cooking, especially when the oven is left unattended.”
Once enabled, if Nest Protect detects smoke while the connected oven is on, GE Appliances will send a command to turn off the oven. The Kitchen app will then also receive a push notification, letting them know that the oven has been turned off.
In addition to integrating with connected ovens, Nest Protect offers additional features:
· Split-spectrum sensor uses two wavelengths of light to look for both fast- and slow-burning fires.
· App Silence allows homeowners to silence an alarm from their phones when everything is under control.
· Product lifetime of up to 10-years offers worry-free use.
· Safety Checkup allows homeowners to test the sensors, power, Wi-Fi connection, horn and speaker on all alarms, right from their phone.
· Automatic speaker and horn sound tests once per month.
