restaurant.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Minnesota State Fire Code provides the minimum requirements for the fire prevention and fire protection in eating and drinking establishments.\u00a0 It is up to you to reduce the odds of a fire impacting your business by routinely doing several things.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It is very important that you monitor the work done by contractors hired to clean hoods, ducts, and fans as well as contractors hired to inspect, test, and maintain the fire suppression systems.\u00a0 The services they sell you may not match the objectives required to maintain your systems in a fire safe manner.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you need to do to protect your investment or your facility?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Look behind the filters and into the exhaust ductwork and monitor the grease build up prior to scheduled cleaning as well as immediately after cleaning to ensure it is cleaner than shown in Figure 2 where grease and the cleaner\u2019s flashlight remained the day after the professional cleaning.\u00a0 Keep in mind that solid-fuel burning appliances leave creosote and it is harder to clean, but easier to ignite.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_338\" style=\"width: 628px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a
