Wet Chemical K-Type Fire Extinguishers
Be it a Restaurant chain, a Hotel or cafeteria, commercial kitchens in these places contain elements that can cause a sudden fire. That’s why understanding commercial kitchen fire protection and fire prevention and safety is crucial to preventing death in the event of a fire.
K-type fires are caused when edible cooking oil or fat is heated to a certain temperature where flammable gases start to form.
This is precisely where a specialist K-type fire extinguisher is important. They are extremely effective in putting out fires in restaurant ventilation equipment -hoods and ductwork, as well as in a variety of cooking appliance fires such as deep fat fryers, griddles, range tops, and several types of boilers thanks to their stainless steel body. Dousing K-type fires is easy and safe thanks to their excellent flame knockdown, surface cooling, and fire-securing capabilities.
