Install it inside the box
Mount the sticker on a clean, flat surface near the top of the electrical box, behind the outlet or switch.
FXN-S1 Outlet Guard
FXN-S1 is a passive, heat-activated fire suppression sticker that installs inside the electrical box behind an outlet or switch. No wires, no batteries. One 12-pack covers up to 12 locations in your home.
Supplemental, localized protection. Does not replace smoke alarms, extinguishers, or code-required fire protection.
Behind the wall plate
Behind every wall plate is a small electrical box holding wiring and connections. That enclosed space is where overheating, arcing, and short circuits can begin, hidden from view until there is smoke. FXN-S1 adds a layer of protection inside that space, right where an electrical fire risk starts.
How it works
Mount the sticker on a clean, flat surface near the top of the electrical box, behind the outlet or switch.
FXN-S1 is fully passive. No batteries, sensors, or wiring. It sits ready for years.
At 248°F (120°C), microcapsules release FK-5-1-12 clean agent directly at the heat source to suppress early-stage ignition.
Where it installs
FXN-S1 fits common enclosed indoor outlet and switch boxes, including old-work boxes in existing walls and new-work boxes used in construction and remodels.
Install one FXN-S1 per gang: one for a single outlet box, two for a double (2-gang) box, and three for a 3-gang box. Place it flat on an available upper-left or upper-right clean, dry interior surface, clear of wiring, terminals, connectors, and the device itself.
Installation
A simple DIY install, if you are comfortable working at the outlet.
Full instructions and safety warnings are in the included installation guide. View technical data sheets.
Key benefits
Activates from heat alone. No power, batteries, or sensors.
Sits inside the box. Nothing changes on your wall.
Electrically non-conductive and leaves no residue in intended use.
An occasional visual check when the box is open; replacement recommended after 5 years.
Peel-and-press installation with the power turned off.
Replace after any activation or if the sticker is damaged or loose.
Know its role
FXN-S1 provides supplemental, early-stage fire suppression inside enclosed indoor outlet and switch boxes. It does not prevent electrical faults, and it does not replace proper electrical installation and repair, breakers, AFCI/GFCI protection, smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, sprinklers, or any code-required fire protection.
For indoor enclosed boxes only. Not for open-air use, damp locations, or spaces where sustained temperatures exceed 149°F (65°C). If you suspect an electrical problem, turn off the circuit and have a licensed electrician find and fix the cause.
Common questions
Yes, if you are comfortable turning off the breaker, verifying the power is off, and removing a cover plate. If you cannot safely verify power is off, or the box is crowded or damaged, use a licensed electrician.
A gang is one outlet or switch position. A single outlet box is 1-gang and needs one FXN-S1. A 2-gang box needs two. The 12-pack covers up to 12 gangs.
No. FXN-S1 is fully passive and activates from heat alone, with no power, sensors, wiring, or electronics.
Turn off the circuit and stop using that outlet or switch. Have a licensed electrician inspect and fix the underlying electrical problem, then replace the sticker.
Recommended replacement is 5 years after installation under stated conditions. Check it visually whenever the box is open.
No. FXN-S1 is supplemental, localized protection inside the electrical box. It does not replace smoke alarms, extinguishers, sprinklers, electrical maintenance, or code-required protection.
