Canada: brannsikkerhet

«Lov» er en bindende regel. «Offisiell veiledning» er ikke lov, men inspektører forventer det. «Chef Hygiene standard» er en verdi appen sjekker mot der ingen regel oppgir et tall.

• Offisiell veiledningThe National Fire Code of Canada 2020 is the model code for the provinces. Kitchen hoods follow NFPA 96, and fire suppression systems follow NFPA 17A or NFPA 10.
• Offisiell veiledningFire protection equipment is inspected by a qualified person at least every 6 months. Portable extinguishers are looked over every month and fully serviced every year.
• Offisiell veiledningAutomatic fire suppression systems need supervisory monitoring, so an alarm sounds on a fault or when the system operates.
• Offisiell veiledningYour fire department and your province’s fire marshal or fire commissioner enforce the provincial fire code. Many restaurants also need a written fire safety plan approved by the fire department.
• Chef Hygiene standardChef Hygiene checks that the hood’s fire suppression system is inspected every 6 months. It also checks for a Class K extinguisher within 9 metres (30 feet) of the fryers.
