Fire Suppression in Plano
What Plano Commercial Kitchens Need to Stay Compliant
Plano pairs one of the largest corporate campus concentrations in Texas with a deep restaurant market, and Plano Fire-Rescue expects every kitchen behind both to carry a current, compliant suppression system. Boss Fire Protection is a Texas State Licensed fire protection company (ECR-2481913) serving Plano from our Dallas headquarters.
A Corporate Campus and Restaurant Market
Plano’s commercial kitchen profile is distinctive in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro. The corporate headquarters concentrated along the Legacy corridor bring a high volume of in-building cafeterias and food service facilities, each carrying fire suppression compliance obligations separate from any traditional restaurant. Layer on the dense restaurant corridors along Preston Road and Central Expressway, plus the established kitchens running from Downtown Plano to Legacy West, and the compliance calendar in this city spans everything from single-location operators to facilities teams managing food service across an entire campus.
Our team services ANSUL, Protex, Kidde, Amerex, Pyro-Chem, Lehavot, Buckeye, and CaptiveAire systems across Plano, with parts on the truck so most deficiencies are corrected in the same visit. Corporate food service accounts get the same documented, scheduled maintenance program we run for restaurants, delivered in the written, photo-documented report format that multi-property facilities teams require.
Boss Fire Protection is Texas State Licensed (ECR-2481913) by the Texas Department of Insurance, State Fire Marshal’s Office.

Yes, That Really Happened
Recent Fire Suppression Work in Plano
A real Plano job, photographed the day we found it and the day we fixed it.
A brand-new Kidde system that was never able to fire
A Plano restaurant called us in behind a brand-new Kidde WHDR installation, paid in full and looking every bit like a finished job.
The cartridge that fires the system was missing and the actuator hoses had never been connected. Every component was new, and none of it was capable of working together. If a fire had started under that hood, the system could not have discharged.
We red-tagged the system, showed the owner exactly what was missing in the photos, then sourced the correct cartridge and hoses, installed them, and confirmed the full actuation path before the green tag went on.
The owner had paid for protection and, until that visit, owned only the appearance of it. Now the system can actually do its job. Read more real finds on our inspection page.
Common Questions
Plano Fire Suppression Inspection FAQs
How often is fire suppression inspection required in Plano, TX?
Commercial kitchen fire suppression systems in Plano require inspection every six months per NFPA 96. Plano Fire-Rescue enforces this standard and your insurance carrier requires documentation of compliant inspections. Boss Fire Protection schedules both semi-annual visits when you come on as a client so your compliance calendar is handled.
What should a Plano restaurant do after a red tag?
Do not rely on the deficient system. Schedule repair right away, correct the listed deficiencies, and keep the resulting documentation for the Plano fire marshal and your facility file. Boss Fire Protection offers same-day red-tag response in Plano with parts on the truck, and we hand you the written report that clears the tag.
Does Boss Fire Protection service corporate cafeterias and in-building food service in Plano?
Yes. We work with property managers and facilities teams across Plano, including the corporate campuses along the Legacy corridor. An in-building cafeteria carries the same NFPA 96 semi-annual inspection requirement as a street-front restaurant, and our written, photo-documented report format is built for teams that manage compliance across multiple properties.
What fire suppression system brands does Boss Fire Protection inspect in Plano?
We inspect and service ANSUL, Protex, Kidde, Amerex, Pyro-Chem, Lehavot, Buckeye, and CaptiveAire systems throughout Plano. If you are not sure what system your kitchen runs, our technician identifies the brand and model at the start of the inspection, and we carry parts for the most common systems so most repairs finish in the same visit.
