the instructions necessary to perform
the maintenance and recharge service
reliably and has the applicable
manufacturer's listed installation and
maintenance manual and service bulletins
shall service the wet chemical
fire-extinguishing system 6 months apart
as outlined in 7.3.2."

shall be conducted in accordance with
the manufacturer's listed installation
and maintenance manual."

"Maintenance shall include the
following:
(1) A check to see that the hazard has
not changed
(2) An examination of all detectors, the

Fire protection uses a 45 point service report.
This remains with the customer to show AHJ or Insurance
agents when they require such documentation.
With our computerized service system we can contact
you to schedule the inspection and set the time of
day that least interferes with your kitchen
schedule.
