Fire Suppression Systems
The fire risk at a busy restaurant or commercial kitchen are considerably higher than normal businesses. Technological innovations and more efficient equipment has actually added to the growing fire risk. Modern commercial kitchen appliances can heat up faster and cool down more slowly than older equipment. In addition, the move toward vegetable-based cooking oils results in faster heat and more volatile conditions. In such dangerous environments a versatile kitchen fire suppression system is a necessity.

Commercial Kitchen Necessity
Kitchen fires are one of the greatest causes of restaurant loss. The best way to protect both life and property within your commercial kitchen is a properly installed and regularly inspected fire suppression system. This will allow you to safely and immediately respond to any fire emergency.
Restaurant fire suppression systems take advantage of a process called saponification. The agents turn burning grease and oil into soap, stopping the fire quickly. ANSUL systems are designed to protect all commercial cooking equipment:
- Ventilating equipment including hoods, ducts, plenums, and filters
- Fryers, griddles, and range tops
- Upright, natural charcoal, or chain-type broilers
- Electric, lava rock, mesquite or gas-radiant char-broilers, and woks

Ansul R-102
Northland Fire provides installation, inspection, maintenance, repair, and replacement of ANSUL R-102 commercial kitchen fire suppression systems.
Appliance-Specific Design
The most efficient fire protection is accomplished when nozzles are selected and aimed at specific hazard areas on each appliance. This method typically provides the most economical use of liquid agent reducing the size or quantity of storage tanks and associated hardware.
Overlapping Appliance Protection
When flexibility and simplicity are most important, nozzles are placed in a straight-line arrangement providing overlapping agent discharge patterns. This creates a virtual fire-free zone where appliances of various types and sizes are protected - even if they are replaced or rearranged under the hood.
System Inspections
Commercial kitchen fire protection is extremely vital. Having your kitchen fire suppression system inspected regularly by a licensed fire protection company is just as important as proper installation. We provide inspections and repair services on all types and brands of restaurant fire suppression systems.
