Do You Know the Best Method for Containing a Commercial Kitchen Fire?

Flash fires in commercial kitchens are much too common. They begin for a number of causes. When a flash fire breaks out, it can cause major disruption to your organization. It could result in a call to the fire brigade, as well as damage to your equipment.

A grease fire is the most prevalent sort of industrial kitchen fire. Grease fires are difficult to put out with ordinary water sprinklers, but your fire suppression system is a crucial tool for putting out a grease fire. When engaged, your fire suppression system joins the range hood and the gas line, cutting off the fire’s fuel source.

A fire suppression system also includes nozzles that spray a fire suppressant through the range hood’s ventilation system. In the case of a fire in your commercial kitchen, these two ways successfully contain flash fires, ensuring that your equipment is not harmed and your personnel are safe.
