Fire Safety Audit for Hotels & Restaurants in Pune
Kitchens are where most restaurant fires start. We audit your LPG setup, hood and duct, extinguishers and exits — and make sure your staff know what to do in the first minute.
Grease, gas and crowds — a risky mix
A busy commercial kitchen has open flames, hot oil, LPG and grease building up inside the exhaust duct. Add a full dining area, décor, and sometimes a terrace or basement seating, and a small kitchen fire can quickly become dangerous for guests.
Hotels are covered by the Maharashtra Fire Prevention and Life Safety Measures Act, 2006, and many restaurants and banquet halls operate in buildings that are too. Our audit covers the kitchen in detail, the guest areas and the escape routes — and, as a Licensed Agency, we can issue the twice-yearly Form B once the systems are in order.

What Audits Commonly Find in Hotels & Restaurants
Typical examples of gaps found in audits of similar buildings — not a specific client. Your report lists what we actually find at your site, with photos.
| Area | Typical finding | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Exhaust duct | Thick grease layer; no cleaning record | Duct fire spreads through the building |
| LPG | Cylinders stored inside the kitchen | Explosion and fire |
| Extinguishers | Only water or ABC types near fryers | Wrong agent on an oil fire |
| Suppression | System installed but never serviced | May not discharge |
| Terrace seating | Single exit through the kitchen | Guests trapped |
| Rooms (hotels) | Evacuation plans missing on room doors | Guests lost in smoke |
