Restaurant customers often turn to Ansul after trying to save costs upfront on their fire suppression system only to deal with costly issues down the road. “Cost-friendly” automatic fire suppression systems often include low-quality components and limited features could result in longer response times or incomplete fire suppression. In short, you get what you pay for.

For the best restaurant fire suppression system value in the industry, there’s no substitute for the reputation and reliability of ANSUL R-102. We’re confident in the long-term savings potential the system offers.

Being Diligent
ANSUL has customers bringing with them horror stories after sourcing elsewhere. Hidden costs within lesser systems can be significant, along with system inflexibility that does not allow kitchens to adapt to new technologies and prevents changes in catering processes, through to constricting limits on appliance sizes, inadequate hood or duct cover, let alone low-quality components with potentially high failure rates.

Help Minimize Property Damage
By quickly suppressing fires at their source, the ANSUL R-102 system helps prevent the spread of flames and limits fire damage. This can minimize the need for extensive repairs or reconstruction, ultimately saving the restaurant from incurring significant property damage cost. 

Downtime and Resuming Business as Usual
Business continuity, downtime and disruption are difficult to quantify but hold immense value. A single fire incident can result in temporary, or in many cases even permanent, closure, leading to substantial financial and reputational damage. In certain markets, insurers may offer premium discounts based on the system fitted, while in others they may impose limitations on coverage or exclude certain losses, or penally increase the excess / deductible. The ongoing availability of spares and support is also crucial for prompt reinstatement of protection following a fire, which should be factored into the overall capital and lifecycle cost. 

Compliance, Confidence and Competence
Non-compliant systems can lead to catastrophic outcomes, including prohibition and enforcement notices that impact immediate and future operations, as well as potentially triggering insurance premium increases. Confidence in a system’s performance is essential. ANSUL R-102’s pedigree is derived from rigorous product testing by independent accredited bodies and mandatory training for its distributors that provides essential competences in design, installation, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance. Access to spares and understanding system intricacies is vital. 

The ANSUL R-102 system is designed to meet or exceed industry standards and regulations like UL300, NFPA 17A, EN 16282-7 and EN 17446 helping restaurants maintain compliance and avoid costly consequences.
