What Is a Kitchen Hood Suppression System?


A kitchen hood suppression system is a specialized fire suppression system designed to automatically extinguish fires in commercial cooking equipment, including deep fryers, grills, broilers, and ranges. When a fire is detected, the system releases a suppressing agent through nozzles positioned above the cooking equipment, extinguishing the fire before it spreads. These systems are required by code for most commercial kitchens.

What Happens When a Kitchen Hood Suppression System Activates?


If a fire breaks out in your commercial kitchen, your hood suppression system is designed to respond automatically and immediately. Understanding what happens during an activation helps you and your staff know what to expect and how to respond safely. Here is what takes place when your system activates:



When heat or flame triggers the system, the control head releases the wet chemical suppressing agent through the nozzles positioned above your cooking equipment. At the same time, the system automatically shuts off the gas or electricity supply to the cooking equipment, cutting off the fuel source that is feeding the fire. An audible alarm sounds to alert staff, and in many systems, the building fire alarm is triggered as well.

After an activation, your kitchen hood suppression system cannot be put back into service until it has been professionally inspected, recharged, and reset. Attempting to reset the system or reopen the kitchen without a professional inspection is a code violation and puts your staff and property at serious risk. Alpha Fire Solutions responds to post-activation service calls within two hours any time of day or night to get your system back in service and your kitchen back up and running as quickly as possible.

 

  • A wet chemical agent is released automatically through suppression nozzles.
  • Gas and electricity to cooking equipment are shut off immediately.
  • An audible alarm alerts kitchen staff to evacuate the area.
  • Building fire alarms may be triggered depending on system configuration.
  • The system must be professionally inspected and recharged before returning to service.

 

After any activation, call Alpha Fire Solutions right away. We will respond fast, complete a full post-activation inspection, recharge your system, and provide all the documentation you need to satisfy your local fire authority and insurance provider.
