Took some quick photos while I waited for the class to begin..


I was getting my 5 year recertification for fire system service tech.


There was a authorized distributer board up displaying all the companies selling Ansul products. Pretty cool my company (Van'* Fire & Safety) has been in it for a long time. 48+ years my boss told me once.


Quick shot of the fire safety training grounds for hand portables. Pretty intense training grounds in the summer. I'll have to take photos when I go for that again.


Ok turn your head to the right. sorry...
Anyways..cool chromed out 'Redline' Extinguisher. High pressure cartridge unit. Found in paper mills and other heavy industrial settings.


Here is one of two old extinguisher display cases as you enter the main lobby. left side..

The recertification class was for restaurant fire suppression system design and service.

thanks for sharing thats a lot of cool stuff

very nice something different love the pictures

Thank you for sharing Todd. That was very nice tour! I like it when a company takes old nostalgic equipment and puts it on display.

When I worked at McDonald'* we had an Ansul kitchen fire suppression system. One for the grill, and on for each of the fry vats.

I was told that if any of them were pulled that they'd have shut the store down for like a day because it would take so long to clean up the foam. Truth?

Yea it would take quite awhile to clean that stuff up. Other than the normal clean up, they would have to drain all the fryer vats, grills and everything and put back to health standards.
Halon would be easier, but its far more expensive to maintain.

I love Halon. It'* what we use on the flight line.

I think we used the portable foam tanks on our flight line.

Awesome Todd!. I wish you would have PM'd me that you were going. I would have asked you to pick me up a hat. Next time.. let me know!

Those pictures are great. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice Todd. I like the display cases of fire extinguishers.

And on a side note: You know you can rotate pictures with almost any photo editing software right?
