Commercial Kitchen Fire Suppression in Hertfordshire
Design, installation and annual servicing across the county, from the company based in it.
Arch Catering & Refrigeration is headquartered in Stevenage, inside Hertfordshire, which makes this the county we reach fastest. Site surveys, installations and annual servicing are all handled without the travel time that specialists working in from London or further afield have to build into a job.
Because we are based in the county, same-day or next-day attendance is realistic for most Hertfordshire sites when something goes wrong, and annual suppression servicing can be scheduled around your trading hours rather than around an engineer travelling across two counties to reach you.
We work with independent restaurants, hotel kitchens, school and college catering, care homes, gyms, pub groups and multi-site operators across the county. For operators running several Hertfordshire sites, suppression servicing can sit alongside gas, refrigeration and warewashing on a single contract rather than six separate ones.

Coverage
Hertfordshire towns we cover
Hertfordshire kitchens run the full range, from small independents in the market towns to large hotel and school kitchens along the A1(M) and M25 corridors. A suppression system has to be designed around the actual cooking line, so the survey matters more than the catalogue: the nozzle layout for a single fryer in a pub kitchen is nothing like the coverage a hotel bank of ranges and chargrills needs.
What We Install
Ansul-compatible wet chemical suppression
The same system and service described in full on our main fire suppression page, delivered locally.
Designed to your cooking line
Nozzles are positioned for the appliances you actually run, with coverage across fryers, ranges, chargrills and griddles plus the canopy and ductwork above them.
Gas and power cut on activation
When the system discharges it simultaneously shuts off the gas and electrical supplies to the cooking equipment, so the heat source is removed rather than just suppressed.
Serviced and documented annually
Annual servicing at minimum, installed to meet insurer requirements, with documentation left after every visit for your records and your insurer.
For the full detail on how the system works, what it protects and what servicing involves, see our commercial kitchen fire suppression page. Kitchens in Hertfordshire often pair it with extract and ductwork cleaning and gas safety inspections.
Common Questions
Fire suppression in Hertfordshire
We are based in Stevenage, so Hertfordshire surveys are usually the quickest to arrange of anywhere we cover. The survey is free and carries no obligation, and it is the only way to quote a suppression system honestly, because the design depends on your cooking line, canopy and ductwork rather than on floor area.
