Fire Safety

Fire Authority

Gila County Fire Districts / Arizona State Fire Marshal

Fire safety enforcement varies by location. Payson has its own fire department. Rural areas covered by county fire districts. Tonto National Forest proximity elevates wildfire risk for many establishments.

Hood Cleaning Standard

NFPA 96 Table 12.4 sets the interval by what the kitchen cooks: monthly for solid fuel, quarterly for high-volume cooking, semiannually for moderate volume, annually for low-volume or seasonal cooking. Wildfire risk in the Rim country makes hood and duct cleaning compliance especially critical.

Suppression Inspection

UL-300 wet chemical systems required for commercial cooking hoods. Semi-annual inspection required.

  • UL-300 wet chemical suppression system required in all commercial cooking hoods
  • Semi-annual suppression system inspection and certification
  • Hood and duct cleaning per NFPA 96 schedule
  • K-class portable fire extinguisher within 30 feet of cooking equipment
