Question 1

What is a residential kitchen fire suppression system?

Accepted Answer

A residential kitchen fire suppression system is an automatic device installed above your stove that detects cooking fires and discharges a suppression agent before the fire can spread. It activates without any action from you — triggered by heat — and works on both gas and electric ranges. Guardian G300-B, G500-B, and G600-B are the leading models available for homeowner purchase and self-installation.
