Extinguishers & Commercial kitchen hood fire suppression systems

Commercial kitchen hood fire suppression systems are required to be inspected on a

semi-annual basis as a minimum requirement of National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Slandered 17A. Great Southwestern Fire and Safety's technicians can inspect and service all brands and types of kitchen hood fire suppression systems.

We can also provide training in the proper use and maintenance of your system so in a fire situation everyone will be prepared to respond if a fire should it occur.

Any facility with a kitchen hood fire suppression system would also be required to have fire extinguishers. Great Southwestern Fire & Safety has the ability to inspect, certify and perform maintenance on the fire extinguishers while we are inspecting your kitchen hood system. We can save you time and money by eliminating the coordination of, extra trips, and phone calls problems that arise when dealing with multiple companies to provide service on your fire protection equipment.

Great Southwestern Fire & Safety's technicians can ensure you have a clean kitchen hood exhaust system. A clean kitchen hood system reduces the threat of a hazard fire and a regularly cleaned exhaust system is more efficient at removing heat and odors from your restaurant’s kitchen.

The demand for a low-fat diet has changed the effectiveness of conventional extinguishing agents. Additives which make low-fat oils palatable, coupled with super-insulated deep fat fryers have rendered most traditional dry chemical agents ineffective for fighting these types of fires. The concern has been so significant that a UL 300 test requirement was enacted calling for new agents and new designs for all systems installed or modified as of November 21, 1994.

Great Southwestern Fire & Safety, can survey your hood fire suppression system and determine if it meets these new requirements. We can also inspect and maintain your system(s) in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association’s standards 17, 17A and 96.

NFPA 96, Standard for Ventilation Control and Fire Protection of Commercial Cooking Operations, was recently updated. The newly released 2014 edition has a requirement that impacts old dry chemical systems. Effective January 1, 2014, all automatic fire extinguishing systems for the protection of commercial cooking equipment are required to meet ANSI/UL 300, Standard for Fire Testing of Fire Extinguishing Systems for the Protection of Commercial Cooking Equipment (2005, revised 2010), or an equivalent standard. This means that existing pre-engineered dry chemical systems protecting this hazard will need to be removed and replaced.
