Philadelphia Kitchen Fire Suppression Inspectors
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
3 licensed inspectors found
Philadelphia restaurants, hotels, and institutional kitchens need a current six-month wet-chemical inspection tag under NFPA 17A/96. Hood cleaning is a different service and does not tag the suppression system.
Philadelphia Fire Department is the usual AHJ in the city. Some contractors publish a Philadelphia license number; Pennsylvania does not use a Texas-style ECR for kitchen systems. HoodInspect only shows numbers companies actually published. Compare Philadelphia inspectors here, including Ansul service, and read the six-month tag guide.
