Mark Wilson Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 Hello, I am currently involved in a 60 bedroom extra care new build scheme in Grimsby. There will be a small commercial kitchen with a medium size gas hob and extractor, I have been asked if a gas shut off is mandatory and also is it necessary to have some form of a deluge or suppression system above the cooking facilities? There will be a small deep fat fryer and I have already recommended a Wet Chemical, CO2 and AFFF Extinguishers and Fire Blanket. Any advice appreciated Regards Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
