Fire safety compliance reference for Highland commercial kitchens. Fire authority, NFPA 96 cleaning frequency, and compliance resources from Cleaning Pros Plus.
San Bernardino County Fire Protection District enforces NFPA 96 standards across commercial kitchens in San Bernardino County. Kitchen operators must maintain current cleaning documentation and make it available during fire inspections.
Fire inspectors in San Bernardino County conduct walkthroughs that include visual inspection of the hood interior, ductwork access panels, and rooftop exhaust fans. They verify that cleaning certificates are current and match the NFPA 96 frequency schedule for the cooking type. Inspectors also check that fire suppression systems have been serviced within the required timeframe. Violations result in a correction notice — failure to correct can lead to operational restrictions or fines.
