An Ansul kitchen fire suppression system is a vital safeguard for any commercial kitchen, automatically detecting and extinguishing fires within seconds. Using a specialist wet chemical, it knocks down flames, cools hot surfaces, and creates a film that helps prevent re-ignition, protecting people, equipment, and business continuity.
Designed for real kitchen risks, the Ansul R-102 targets fryers, ranges, griddles, charbroilers, and the extract canopy and ductwork. It can trigger automatically via heat detection or be activated manually, then shut off gas and electrical supplies and raise an alarm for a controlled response. Many insurers expect certified suppression on higher-risk cooklines, so installing and maintaining an R-102 demonstrates due diligence alongside staff training and routine checks.
