Restaurant Fire Suppression Systems.
Those who install, operate, recharge, or maintain these fire
suppression systems should read this entire manual. Specific
sections will be of particular interest depending upon one’s
responsibilities.
Design, installation, recharge, and maintenance of the system
must conform to the limitations detailed in this manual and
performed by an individual who attended an ANSUL training
program and became trained to install, recharge, design, and
maintain the ANSUL system.
Fire suppression systems are mechanical devices. They need
periodic care. Maintenance is a vital step in the performance
of your fire suppression system. As such it must be performed
in accordance with NFPA 96 (Standard for the Installation
of Equipment for the Removal of Smoke and Grease-Laden
Vapors from Commercial Cooking Equipment) and NFPA 17A
(Standard on Wet Chemical Extinguishing Systems) by an
authorized ANSUL distributor. To provide maximum assurance
that the fire suppression system will operate effectively and
safely, maintenance must be conducted at six-month intervals,
or earlier if the situation dictates. Twelve-year maintenance
must include agent tank hydrostatic testing.
