Restaurants and kitchens
Grease fires are a real risk in a commercial kitchen. We keep your hood suppression system, your extinguishers and your emergency lighting ready for inspection.
In a restaurant, the fire usually starts in the grease, above the fryers and grills. That is why your hood suppression system (ULC-S1254 / NFPA-96), your Class K extinguishers and your emergency lighting need to stay in good shape and get inspected. Canuck Santé & Sécurité looks after all of it for restaurants and commercial kitchens in Quebec City, Levis and the surrounding area. We schedule our visits to disrupt service as little as possible, and we hand you clear documentation for your insurer and municipal inspections. With the Canuck360 portal, you can check your compliance status, your certificates and your upcoming deadlines any time.

Why does a kitchen need a Class K extinguisher?
Cooking oil and grease fires call for a Class K extinguisher, made for that type of fire. A regular extinguisher is not enough and can make things worse. We confirm you have the right unit in the right place.
Will you have to close the kitchen during the inspection?
We schedule visits outside your busy hours to limit the impact on service. Most inspections are done without closing the kitchen.
Can I track my compliance without calling?
Yes. The Canuck360 portal gives you access to your compliance status, your certificates and your upcoming deadlines any time. Handy when your insurer or the municipal inspector asks for your documents.
