Commercial Kitchens utilise high temperature cooking oils, cooking appliances and deep-fat fryers. Fires in restaurants or other commercial kitchens are often caused by Class K fires (due to the burning of vegetable oils and fats). Regardless of how a fire starts, it is important to suppress the fire as quickly as possible. Water typically is not an option, as grease fires spread with the inclusion of water, while extinguishers may ruin all of the food and produce inside of the kitchen when unnecessary.
Restaurant fire suppression systems offer a unique way to extinguish a fire quickly and efficiently.
Restaurant suppression systems are fixed extinguishing systems designed to quickly detect and suppress kitchen fires using advanced extinguishing agents. It has been specifically designed to combat kitchen fires and limit damage, so kitchen operation can be quickly restored once the fire has been safely extinguished.
Maintenance visits are required twice a year to ensure system functionality and compliance with European Standards.
As Fipro Fire, we design, install, commission and maintain fire extinguishing systems in many commercial kitchens.
