Running a restaurant means juggling a lot: customers, staff, menus—and most importantly, safety. One of the biggest risks in any commercial kitchen is fire. Grease, high heat, and open flames create the perfect storm. That’s why having a properly installed and maintained kitchen fire suppression system isn’t just a good idea—it’s the law.
At AAA Fire Protection, we specialize in restaurant fire suppression service for kitchens across Seattle, Bellevue, Kirkland, Tacoma, Everett, and Renton. We help ensure your system is ready to activate when it matters most.
A kitchen suppression system is more than just an extinguisher under the hood. It’s a fully integrated safety system designed to:
Automatically detect high heat or flames
Shut down cooking equipment
Release a chemical agent to smother grease fires
Minimize damage and protect staff and customers
These systems are specifically engineered for commercial kitchens, and they must meet codes enforced by local fire marshals and insurance providers.
According to NFPA 96 and local Seattle fire code, your kitchen suppression system must be:
Professionally inspected every 6 months
Tested for activation and coverage
Kept in compliance with manufacturer and code requirements
Miss an inspection? You could face fines, insurance issues, or worse—your system might not work when you need it most.
At AAA Fire Protection, we perform thorough walkthroughs and photo documentation during pre-inspection visits. Here are just a few common issues we find:
Nozzle blockages or misalignment
Expired suppression chemical tanks
Grease buildup interfering with system function
Improperly tagged systems or missing documentation
Lack of coordination between hood systems and fuel shutoff
These issues are easy to fix—but only if they’re caught in time.
We’ve served the Seattle area for over 40 years. Our technicians are trained to handle the unique demands of commercial kitchen environments, and we work closely with restaurant owners, facility managers, insurance adjusters, and fire marshals to make sure your system is 100% compliant.
We offer:
On-site evaluations with photos and transparent quotes
Maintenance scheduling reminders (we won’t let you forget your 6-month check-up)
Installation, upgrades, and retrofit services
Emergency response and recharges if your system discharges
A fire suppression system is your restaurant’s first line of defense. If you’re unsure when your last inspection was—or if you’ve recently remodeled your kitchen—it’s time to schedule a visit.
