Kitchen Hood Suppression Nozzle Planner

UL 300 · NFPA 96 · Wet-Chemical Flow-Point Coverage

When to use: Use this planner to lay out a pre-engineered UL 300 wet-chemical hood suppression system per NFPA 96. Each appliance, duct opening, and plenum section consumes a number of nozzles and flow points. The total flow points must not exceed the agent tank's rated capacity. Appliance nozzle counts scale with the cooking-surface footprint against the listed coverage area; duct openings each require a single dedicated nozzle and the plenum requires continuous coverage at the listed spacing.

UL 300 / NFPA 96 Notes
UL 300 — Every cooking appliance, duct, and plenum requires listed nozzle protection
NFPA 96 — Automatic fuel (gas/electric) shutoff on system actuation
Nozzle placement & aiming per the manufacturer's listed design manual
Appliances cannot be relocated without re-evaluating nozzle coverage
