It is not something we like to think about, but disasters happen to businesses all the time. And in many cases, a fire is responsible. The good news is that spreading fires are preventable. This is why it is important for businesses to take proactive steps to lessen their risk. Installing a kitchen fire suppression system is one key step.
The ins and outs of a kitchen fire suppression system
In most cases, when a fire occurs the sprinklers will turn on or someone will grab a fire extinguisher. While these can be effective tools, fires sometimes spread very quickly. Often, they may be out of reach of the sprinkler system or be no match for an extinguisher. In many instances, a fire could start without anyone being present. This is where a kitchen fire suppression system comes in.
From the moment a fire starts, the system goes into action. Utilizing wet chemicals, the system stops the fire before it can do much damage. In addition, it cools the entire area, which prevents things like grease from re-igniting.
