Another Stupid Ridiculous NFPA Fire Alarm code to waste more money for a business owner

 NFPA the National Fire Protection  Association who should be better known as Not For Practical Application has done it again.

They now require a Horn Strobe to activate on a  Commercial Kitchen Cooking Equipment Hood 

So hard of hearing know the hood has activated .

Really? 

Obviously who ever came up with this stupid code has never been in a restaurant when one activates  .

There is so much steam and fog and noise everyone knows it has activated there is no need for a horn strobe and added cost of $300 to $1500 dollars if an electric line needs run by an electrician to hood .

But those who make the code could care less and just drive the cost of eating up 


Like I have said many times  The Fire Service is its own worst enemy and the NFPA needs abolished and new code put in place which makes sense as we fall even further behind the rest of the world because of stupid codes and rules which limit competition
