Why is fire protection for commercial kitchens important?

Oil, fat, and grease are all extremely flammable products and, since they are so readily available when cooking, cause thousands of fires in commercial kitchens and millions in damage each year. Having an effective commercial kitchen fire suppression system in place is one of the most important aspects of a restaurant or building with a commercial kitchen. Your commercial kitchen fire suppression system should consist of a hood system, a chemical fire extinguishant and several K Class fire extinguishers.

With these together, you will be able to respond quickly to a fire in your commercial kitchen before it spreads too far and takes over—causing injuries, loss of life, damage to expensive kitchen equipment, or downtime for your kitchen operations.
