Bamboo Insurance Launches Ting Program to Provide Fire Prevention Technology to Policyholders for Free
Bamboo Insurance is proud to offer enhanced home safety by providing Whisker Labs’ Ting fire prevention sensors and service for free to eligible customers. Ting helps protect families, pets, and homes from devastating electrical fires by detecting and addressing hidden electrical hazards before they escalate. This year, Bamboo Insurance will provide Ting at no cost to at least 5,000 Bamboo Insurance policyholders, strengthening their commitment to protecting what matters most.
“Providing peace of mind is at the heart of everything we do” said John Chu, Bamboo Insurance CEO. “By offering Ting fire prevention at no cost to our policyholders, we’re taking proactive steps to help prevent home fires before they start. It’s not only a wise business decision, but more importantly, it is an investment the reinforces our commitment to customer safety.”
Ting is an innovative plug-in sensor and fire prevention service that monitors for hidden hazards that lead to electrical fires within a home’s wiring, devices, and utility equipment. If a hazard is detected, Ting alerts the homeowner and leads them through every repair step. Beyond fire prevention, Ting also provides real-time alerts for power outages and even provides assistance for frozen pipe prevention as part of its commitment to helping keep families safe and informed.
Bamboo Insurance is the latest insurer to adopt Ting, joining a fast-growing group embracing this proactive technology to reduce risk and improve customer safety. Ting has a strong track record—preventing 4 out of 5 home fires—and is already protecting over 1 million homes, having helped more than 18,000 customers avoid potentially catastrophic fires.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Bamboo Insurance to bring Ting to even more homes,” shared Bob Marshall, Whisker Labs Co-Founder and CEO. “Our mission is clear: to proactively reduce the risk of home fires and deliver safety alerts that provide real value to homeowners. This partnership not only helps keep families safe but also strengthens the relationship between customers, their insurance providers, and agents by offering a preventative, technology-driven solution.”
To be eligible for this offer, customer must have an active homeowners policy placed through Bamboo Insurance, provided such policy is not for a tenant-occupied property and does not have a Difference in Conditions endorsement. Interested members can check full eligibility requirements and enroll online. Eligible customers will receive a free Ting sensor, the Ting app, 3 years of free fire prevention service, and a $1,000 credit for labor repair costs of Ting-identified hazards.
