Fire Protection Built for Commercial Kitchens

Grease fires can spread quickly into hoods and ductwork. A kitchen hood suppression system is designed to detect a fire on the cooking line and put it out. When it activates, it sprays a wet chemical agent over the cooking equipment and shuts off fuel or power to the appliances under the hood.

That protection only works if the system is in good condition and set up for the equipment you cook on today. Craig Fire Protection installs new systems, inspects and tests existing ones, and handles the repairs, upgrades, and replacements that keep them working.

We work with restaurants, bars, hotels, school cafeterias, healthcare and assisted living kitchens, churches, food trucks, and other commercial cooking operations. Common reasons people call us include an inspection coming due, a failed inspection, new or moved cooking equipment, damaged or outdated components, nozzles or fusible links that need replacing, or problems with fuel or power shutoff.

Kitchen Suppression Service for Arizona Restaurants

Lake Havasu City and the Colorado River communities draw big crowds during the spring and summer boating season and again with winter visitors. Restaurants, bars, and hotel kitchens run hard during those months. Scheduling your inspections around your busy seasons helps keep your documentation current when your kitchen is working its hardest.

Kitchens also change. A new fryer, a bigger griddle, or a remodeled cooking line can leave an appliance outside the area your system protects. If you are updating your menu or your kitchen, call us before the new equipment goes in so the suppression system can be adjusted to match.

Requirements vary across Arizona, too. We work with your local fire authority's requirements so your kitchen is ready for inspection.

Kitchen Hood Suppression FAQs

How often do kitchen hood suppression systems need to be inspected?

Commercial kitchen hood suppression systems need regular inspection and testing by a professional under applicable NFPA 17A and NFPA 96 requirements. How often depends on your system and your local fire authority, and we can confirm what applies to your kitchen.

What businesses need a kitchen hood suppression system?

Commercial cooking operations that use grease-producing appliances commonly need one. Examples include restaurants, food trucks, school cafeterias, hotels, bars, healthcare facilities, churches, assisted living facilities, and other commercial kitchens. Exact requirements depend on your equipment and local authority.

What does a kitchen hood suppression system do?

It detects and suppresses fires involving commercial cooking equipment. The system discharges a wet chemical agent and works with fuel or power shutoffs to help contain the fire and keep it from spreading through the hood and ventilation system.

What happens during a kitchen hood suppression inspection?

A technician inspects components such as nozzles, fusible links, agent tanks, detection equipment, pull stations, and fuel shutoff connections. Testing verifies that the system operates as designed and helps identify maintenance or repair needs.

Do I need to update my system if I change my cooking equipment?

Applicable standards can include NFPA 17A, NFPA 96, NFPA 10, and other fire protection standards depending on your building and its systems. Arizona businesses must also follow local fire authority requirements.

How much does kitchen hood suppression service cost?

Cost depends on the type of system, the size of your property, and the work needed. We do not publish set prices because every property is different. Request a quote or call (928) 453-7185, and we will price the work for your specific property.
