Ansul inspection and tagging
Professional inspection and tagging on site. Inspections and maintenance follow manufacturer requirements and applicable standards such as NFPA 17A and NFPA 96. That includes the checks, testing, and documentation those requirements call for—not only a visual look at individual parts. Systems that pass receive a service tag. See kitchen hood suppression inspection in NJ for what is checked every six months.
Ansul repairs and maintenance
Maintenance and repairs when something fails or needs work between inspections—links, nozzles, piping, and related components.
New installations
New commercial kitchen fire suppression installations, replacements, and upgrades of older systems. See kitchen hood suppression installation in NJ. Need a new hood as well? See our kitchen hoods page. We do not provide hood cleaning or hood repair, and we do not install or repair exhaust fans.
Changes to the cooking line
Contact us before you add, remove, or relocate cooking equipment under the hood. We review whether the existing suppression design and coverage remain suitable for the new layout. Moving or aiming a nozzle is not always enough; some changes need a design update.

Detection and release components vary by installation. We inspect, maintain, and repair Ansul kitchen fire suppression systems, including R-102. If your cabinet shows a different brand, tell us when you call—or we identify the system on site. New to the term? Read what an Ansul system is.

What is an Ansul system? Common questions
What is an Ansul system? +
An Ansul system is a fixed fire suppression system installed over commercial cooking appliances. The Ansul R-102 is the most common restaurant model: a wet-chemical system with nozzles aimed at the fryers, griddle, and range, plus the hood and duct, and a tank in a cabinet at the end of the cooking line.
How does an Ansul hood system work? +
Fusible links in the hood detect the heat of a fire. When a link lets go, the system releases wet chemical from the tank through piping to the nozzles, which discharge onto the appliances, plenum, and duct. Most systems also shut off the fuel or power to the cooking equipment. Details vary by installation.
How often must an Ansul system be inspected? +
Twice a year. NFPA 96 and NFPA 17A call for semiannual inspection and maintenance of kitchen fire suppression systems, and the service tag shows the date of the last inspection. Check with your local fire official for any additional requirements.
Does my restaurant need an Ansul system? +
Generally yes. Commercial cooking equipment that produces grease-laden vapors, such as fryers, griddles, and ranges, is normally required to have a fixed fire suppression system under the hood. Your local fire official makes the final call, and we can help you work out what your kitchen needs.
Do you service Ansul R-102? +
Yes. The Ansul R-102 is a UL 300 wet-chemical restaurant system. We inspect, maintain, and repair Ansul kitchen fire suppression, including R-102.
What if the tank is not Ansul? +
Tell us the name on the cabinet when you call—or we identify the system on site. We inspect and repair commercial kitchen fire suppression systems beyond Ansul when that is what is installed.
What if the cooking equipment changes? +
Contact us before the layout changes. We review whether the existing suppression design and coverage remain suitable; nozzle adjustments alone are not always enough.
Do you cover food trucks? +
We inspect and service fire suppression on existing food trucks in our New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania service area. Call to confirm your address.
