What Buildings Benefit from Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems?
While fire suppression systems are common in restaurants, they can also be installed in apartment buildings or even student housing. Many commercial building owners feel that investing in kitchen fire suppression systems is less expensive than repairing fire and smoke damage.
Where Is the Kitchen Fire Suppression System Installed?
Kitchen fire suppression systems can be customized to safeguard a diverse range of kitchen appliances, including stoves and deep fat fryers. The system’s nozzles are strategically installed within the kitchen hood exhaust. This positioning ensures that wet chemicals are discharged directly over the fire source in case of an emergency.
How Does a Kitchen Hood Suppression System Work?
When a fire is detected, the system activates by releasing wet chemicals from the nozzles positioned above the affected appliance. These chemicals are designed to swiftly extinguish flames by suffocating them, depriving them of oxygen. Simultaneously, the system cuts off the gas supply to the appliance immediately upon activation, eliminating the fire’s fuel source.
This dual-action approach effectively suppresses kitchen fires without disrupting other cooking stations. It ensures that only the food involved in the fire is affected, minimizing overall loss. Additionally, due to the significant smoke production during fires, the hood automatically activates to ventilate the kitchen, swiftly removing smoke and enhancing safety.
Kitchen hood suppression systems respond automatically to fire incidents, thereby minimizing potential damages and ensuring swift containment of fires.
Are Fire Suppression Systems Just for Kitchens?
Fire suppression systems can discharge different chemicals for different applications. For example, a different chemical will be used for grease fires than for oil or electrical fires. Be sure to hire a fire protection contractor who’s familiar with the type of system needed for your application.
What Are the Benefits of Kitchen Fire Suppression Systems?
It’s much less expensive to prevent kitchen fires than to repair structural damage after a fire. For this reason, many business owners appreciate the security that comes from installing a fire suppression system. Not only are you able to protect your building’s occupants, but you are also restricting fire damage to an individual cooking surface.
