Branchville, N.J., Jan. 6, 2025 — With the addition of Whisker Labs' Ting fire prevention program, Selective Insurance Company of America has expanded the value-added services it offers to eligible policyholders. Ting is an innovative plug-in sensor and fire prevention service that monitors for hidden hazards that can lead to electrical fires within a home's wiring, devices, and utility equipment. Ting alerts the homeowner and coaches them through every repair step if a hazard is detected.

Selective joins a growing number of insurers adopting Ting as a proactive solution to mitigate risk and enhance customer safety. With a proven ability to prevent four out of five home fires, Ting has already been deployed in over one million homes and saved over 16,000 customers from potentially devastating fires.

This partnership helps keep families safe and strengthens the relationship between customers, their insurance provider, and their agents by offering a preventative, technology-driven solution."
