Hood suppression installs, extinguisher calculations, and initial fire marshal sign-off for build-outs, tenant improvements and changes of use.

Opening Date on the Calendar?

Fire sign-off is the step that holds up occupancy. Get your systems installed, tested and signed before the inspection date, not after it.

What We Do

Everything the fire marshal checks before you open.

We come in at plan stage, install what the code requires, and stay on it until the sign-off is in your hand.

New Hood Suppression Installation

Wet chemical systems designed around your appliance line, installed to UL 300 and tested before the inspector arrives.

Extinguisher Calculations

We size, count, type and place every unit to code — travel distance, occupancy class and hazard rating.

Initial Fire Marshal Sign-Off

We meet the inspector on site, walk the systems, and handle the corrections list if one comes back.

Plan-Stage Review

Send the plans early. Catching a coverage gap on paper costs a phone call. Catching it at inspection costs your opening date.

Common Questions

New build questions worth asking early.

When should I call about fire protection for a new build-out?

At plan stage, before the hood goes in. Appliance layout drives nozzle placement, and occupancy class drives extinguisher counts and travel distances. Both are cheap to fix on paper and expensive to fix after the line is installed and your opening date is booked.

Do I need a hood suppression system for my kitchen?

If you cook with grease under a commercial hood, yes. Any appliance producing grease-laden vapours — fryers, griddles, ranges, charbroilers — requires a wet chemical suppression system meeting UL 300. We evaluate the line and quote the system before anything is ordered.
