Follow on Google News | Yorkshire Firm Offers Simple Affordable Gas Safe Solution For Public and Commercial KitchensSheffield based firm Fox Catering Equipment have launched a one-stop service for commercial kitchen owners and managers to help them comply with new gas safe regulations in an affordable and efficient manner
By: Fox Catering Equipment Limited Ben Senior, Managing Director at Fox Catering Equipment near Sheffield, explained how this may come as a shock to some commercial kitchen owners. “The typical scenario is that a Gas Safe engineer attends site to install a new piece of gas equipment and instead issues a forced closure notice of the kitchen for not observing the correct Health and Safety regulations.” “The most significant regulation normally in breach is the lack of gas interlock system. Others can be inadequate overhang of the extraction canopy itself, insufficient air being extracted, insufficient replacement air being supplied or even the build-up of carbon dioxide.” A Gas Interlock System is a safety device that is an essential component in the commercial kitchen ventilation system. Its function is to prevent gas being used unless the ventilation systems are working correctly by closing off the gas supply automatically when the fans are turned off or fail. The regulations can be difficult for the non-technical to understand with a range of official standards that need to be satisfied, for example DW172, DW144 & BS 1673 for the canopies and BS6173 for the gas safety equipment. As Ben Senior continued, “For a kitchen manager with limited knowledge of this side of the industry the task of coordinating and arranging these works independently would be daunting to say the least.” Fox Catering Equipment assembles a team of qualified, expert engineers from varied catering industry backgrounds to ensure all compliance is adhered to in a quick, efficient and cost effective way. Kitchen managers can find out more about making sure their commercial kitchen is both safe and compliant at http://foxcateringequipment.co.uk/ For further information about this press release, please contact: Ben Senior Issued by Wick IT Services on behalf of Fox Catering Equipment Limited End
