However, danger can lurk around the corner if you aren\u2019t careful. Fire safety in the kitchen is a top priority to ensure that everyone can remain safe while the kitchen is in full swing. From fire extinguishers to fryer maintenance, knowing the basic safety essentials will help take your kitchen from hazard to emergency ready. Don\u2019t get caught unprepared, check out all our helpful guidance below.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Common Causes of Kitchen Fires<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a variety of kitchen fires like class a, class b, class c, class d, class e, class f and class g fires. Grease, electrical or chemical fires can all cause different kinds that require different responses. Commercial kitchens can have any of these fires and some common causes of these fires include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unattended operating equipment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Electrical faults and failures<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grease build-up<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Improper disposals and storage<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Faulty appliances<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Faulty gas lines<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Overheating<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Local Codes and Regulations<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where do you start in fire safety? By knowing what your local city, state and industry regulations are. Look up any commercial kitchen fire safety standards and regulations that you need to adhere to for your state. Your local town or city fire department can also be a great resource in understanding local codes that might include capacity limits and more. OSHA also has great guidance that can help <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.osha.gov\/etools\/young-workers-restaurant-safety\/cooking#accordion-76704-collapse4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">young workers in restaurants<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> know how to handle fire safety and hazards.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ventilation and Exhausts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ventilation and exhaust hoods are a key piece in kitchen fire safety. Proper airflow is essential to prevent heat build-up and disperse grease or smoke from accumulating in the air. Without effective ventilation, grease can build up in exhaust hoods, filters and ducts, increasing the risk of a grease fire. Keeping airflow moving and parts clean can also ensure that equipment doesn\u2019t overheat, which is another cause for fires. By maintaining hoods and vents, you are able to protect your kitchen and reduce the risk of harm. Check out our next section for the importance of preventative maintenance on exhaust hoods and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Appliance Maintenance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Appliance maintenance is another puzzle piece that adds to fire safety in commercial kitchens and prevents hazards. Maintenance is essential in preventing fires in commercial kitchens because it reduces the risk of equipment malfunction, grease buildup, and electrical failures, all of which are common causes of kitchen fires.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Deep fryers<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; These units are a serious risk for burns and injuries, with oil maintenance being a key part of fryer operations. Wearing protective gear and following routine cleaning and oil changes will help to reduce risks and avoid dangerous build-up. Learn more with our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/cm\/resource-center\/guides\/gd2\/deep-fryer-safety-tips\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">deep fryer safety tips<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for safer operations.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Ovens and ranges<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Ovens and ranges are larger kitchen appliances that need maintenance to prevent fire risks in the kitchen. While cleaning any build-up from an oven is a typical part of fire prevention, checking electrical wires and connections are an important part too. Electrical fires can be just as dangerous, so keeping up on routine inspections will be essential prevention practices.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Grills, broilers and charbroilers<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Grills, broilers and charbroilers are great for classic burgers or steaks, but they need rigorous cleaning to prevent grease build-up that can cause grease fires. Following manufacturer\u2019s standards on cleaning grease traps and filters is high priority and essential for fire safety. Another maintenance essential is never leaving a unit unattended while it is operating. Unattended appliances are a major cause for fires, so staying present and alert are just as essential.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Exhaust hoods<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; These are a notorious appliance part that needs monitoring and cleaning. Grease build-up is the enemy and by staying on top of proper appliance upkeep, you can significantly minimize fire risks in busy kitchen environments.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Toasters and panini press<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; That crumb tray isn\u2019t just for decoration, emptying those trays is important in preventing food build-up that can clog and overheat a unit. Excessive crumbs could also catch fire while equipment is operating, so keep that work station neat and tidy.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fire Extinguisher and Suppression Systems<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fire suppression systems and extinguishers are the main and most important part of fire safety in the kitchen. They are the first line of defense in the event of a fire, helping to quickly control and extinguish fires before they spread. Fire suppression systems that are made for kitchens can be automatic and detect fires before most people can react. They provide a rapid response that can smother and extinguish fires in high-risk areas. Having staff know how to manually activate these if it doesn\u2019t automatically react should be a standard practice for any commercial kitchen. Also knowing where all fire alarms are located is essential for anyone that will be present and moving through the kitchen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18319\" src=\"https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher.jpg\" alt=\"Fire Safety in the Kitchen\" width=\"2175\" height=\"919\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher.jpg 2175w, https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher-300x127.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher-1024x433.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher-768x325.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher-1536x649.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher-2048x865.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Fire-Extinguisher-400x169.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2175px) 100vw, 2175px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fire extinguishers are a manual tool that can be used by kitchen staff to help smother fires. Different types of extinguishers, such as Class K extinguishers, are specifically designed to tackle grease fires. Everyone operating in the kitchen should know where the extinguishers are located and how to use them correctly. Don\u2019t forget to read the label before using, since different fires require different extinguishers. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/restaurant.org\/education-and-resources\/resource-library\/fighting-fires-in-restaurant-kitchens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">national restaurant association mentions that the P.A.S.S. technique<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is one way for staff to remember how to use a fire extinguisher.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Emergency Plan and Procedures<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowing what to do during an emergency can be just as important as having the physical tools to handle fire situations. Knowledge is power, so make sure that all kitchen staff know the official emergency procedures for your specific kitchen and what each individual needs to do during a fire. Some important topics to go over are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Fire drills<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Going over fire drills on a routine basis and on a rolling basis for any new staff ensures that everyone knows the essentials. Practicing these will get the muscle memory into everyone\u2019s body, so they can act during a real emergency.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Designated roles<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Appointing a fire warden will help to distribute responsibilities and ensure that evacuations can happen smoothly and succinctly. Inform staff of designated roles in emergencies, so everyone knows who they can look to for guidance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Evacuation routes and exits<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Clearly point out and define any emergency exits and evacuation routes. Having these noticeable and easily identified can help combat panic during emergencies.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Meet up spots<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Designated meet up spots should be a part of any emergency plan.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Roll call<\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; Don\u2019t forget when assigning roles to ensure that someone is in charge of taking roll calls at the meet up spot. Knowing who is accounted for and if anyone is missing is crucial for emergency services professionals who will need this information when they arrive on scene.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><strong>Training<\/strong> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Having some staff trained in how to use a fire extinguisher or first aid are also important keeping kitchen staff prepared and safe. They can help people stay calm and help with any minor hazards while waiting for emergency services to arrive.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you need more safety tips to ensure that your kitchen can stay prepared, check out our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.partstown.com\/about-us\/commercial-kitchen-safety-checklist\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">commercial kitchen safety checklist<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to help you be prepared and aware.
