🔥 Did you know food trucks need fire suppression systems, too? They may be smaller than traditional commercial kitchens, but food trucks face many of the same cooking fire risks. We recently went behind the scenes during the installation of a new food truck kitchen suppression system, including the hood suppression components, manual pull station and suppression tank. And just like a brick-and-mortar commercial kitchen, keeping that system properly inspected and maintained is an important part of staying ready. Whether your food truck is on the road every day or gearing up for its next event, fire safety should always be along for the ride.
