How do you protect a residential-grade appliance that is used in a commercial or otherwise public space – but isn’t a part of a “true” commercial cooking operation?* How often does this question come up? …for us it’s every day.* Operationally, our D1000 has always met or exceeded the theory and intent behind larger commercial-grade fire suppression systems: especially as they are used in protecting residential-grade appliances in light to medium duty applications.* The Fire Protection Industry has long championed the benefits of our advanced design and would often require it specifically.* However, while the needs of the fire official were being met; building and mechanical code requirements would dictate that a UL300 commercial system must be used over any cooking equipment in that space, regardless of type or use level.* This interpretation forces*many facilities to close, or forgo food preparation completely, based on costs of $15k (and up) to protect a $300 appliance.*
*
A “commercial building” means that any equipment used in it becomes commercial by default; therefore commercial grade protections are required.* This is how the code is commonly understood and it does not address the gray area created by residential grade cooking equipment.* This burden of code interpretation and case-by-case acceptance of our technology has finally come to an end.* Beginning June 1, 2012 The D1000 by Denlar Fire Protection becomes the only UL300A, residential-grade fire suppression system to achieve compliance and commentary within the mechanical code.* Use of The D1000 within the mechanical code is now addressed by ICC\ES PMG Report #1122 (attached).*
*
What does this mean to you?* …quite simply, everything.* As the only product in our category to be recognized within the mechanical code, we are poised for wide-ranging acceptance in a way that we never were before.* If you are*involved with "mixed-use" spaces, I suspect the issues*in the mechanical code are no surprise to you.* If you’ve been waiting for*our PMG report before beginning a project or design …then the time is now.* Our*target market is any residential-grade cooking appliance that is used in a commercial space, but is not part of a “for compensation” commercial cooking environment
*
*
Materials, manuals and spec sheets are being updated now –training sessions will be announced later this week.

Thanks and Good Luck!
