Elements of a Commercial Kitchen Fire Protection System

You need several different systems in place to keep your commercial kitchen adequately protected from fire. These include:

• Fire suppression system: A wet chemical suppression system is required in commercial kitchens because water, dry chemicals, and foam are not appropriate for dousing cooking fires. We install pre-engineered systems to keep costs down as well as customized systems designed for individual kitchens.
• Kitchen hood exhaust system: This feature vents hot, steamy cooking fumes to the exterior, making the kitchen a safer, more pleasant place to work.
• Class K fire extinguishers: Give your staff members the power to fight cooking fires with Class K extinguishers. You’ll need at least one in the cooking area to make your kitchen code compliant.
• Other fire protection measures: The areas outside the kitchen where patrons order food and dine together also need protection in the form of fire sprinklers, fire alarms, multipurpose extinguishers, and more.

We recommend working closely with Kauffman Co. to determine which systems you need and where to install them to maximize safety and code compliance.
