Keep It Functional. Keep It Code-Compliant. Master Fire Comes to You.

Your restaurant or commercial kitchen in Manhattan relies on one critical line of defense against a grease fire: your range hood suppression system. But having a system isn’t enough—it must be fully functional, properly piped, and inspected regularly by professionals who understand both the mechanics and the code.

At Master Fire, we don’t just tag your system—we test it, verify its full functionality, inspect the piping, and make sure it’s ready to operate the moment it’s needed.

Why Full-System Testing and Pipe Integrity Matter

Too often, inspections focus on paperwork, while ignoring deeper mechanical issues. We go further. Your system’s pipes, discharge lines, nozzles, control heads, and cylinders must all work in sync under pressure—literally.

A clogged or improperly pressurized line can delay discharge. A misaligned nozzle can spray off-target. A compromised pipe can stop the system from working entirely. That’s why NYC Fire Code and NFPA 96 require:

• Complete system discharge testing (when applicable)

• Verification that chemical flow reaches every hazard zone

• Inspection of piping for corrosion, damage, or grease blockage

• Assessment of nozzle alignment and cap condition

• Manual and automatic activation checks

Anything less than a complete functional test isn’t enough to meet code—or protect your kitchen.

What Master Fire’s Inspection Covers
