Smart Home Chaos: Fire through remote -controlled sauna in the Walsertal!

Großes Walsertal, Österreich - An alarming incident recently occurred in the Great Walsertal, where a homeowner activated his sauna via the smartphone while he was not at home. There was a short circuit that triggered a devastating fire that was discovered by attentive neighbors. The damage caused is enormous and now there are questions about liability. Insurance expert Klaus Klammer points out that in such cases a "grossly negligent" liability is often assumed that is not covered in every insurance contract. A special additional cover is therefore often necessary to be protected in the event of damage, which is a potential financial burden for many, especially since not all insurance companies offer this cover as standard.
