Fire Extinguishers

 Alacran Hoods offers installation, service, and maintenance for all types of extinguishers to fit your specific needs. Commercial kitchens need a Class K extinguisher since cooking fires do not respond to ABC extinguishers, this is because cooking oils and grease burn at higher temperatures.

NFPA requires a place of business to be visually inspecting their extinguishers on a monthly basis to check for tampering, rust, safety pin in place, etc. NFPA also requires your extinguisher(s) to be inspected every 12 months by a certified technician and a tag placed on the extinguisher with the information of the company completing the inspection as well as the date it was completed. If your extinguishers don't have tags or if you're concerned about if they would work properly if needed, we are here to help.
