How Kitchen Hood Suppression Systems Work

Commercial kitchen suppression systems are designed to detect and suppress grease fires within cooking appliances, hood systems, and exhaust ducts. When heat activates the detection system, wet chemical agents discharge through strategically placed nozzles to suppress flames and help prevent re-ignition.
