About this file
This is a Kitchen Hood Fire Inspection Report for the VA Medical Center located at 2121 North Avenue, Grand Junction, Colorado 81501. The inspection was performed on March 17, 2026, by Integrity Fire Safety Services (Job #42102653) under the jurisdiction of Grand Junction Fire. The facility maintains a semi-annual inspection interval for its ANSUL-R 102 alarm shunt/wet chemical cartridge system with a cartridge date of October 2021 and a 6-year hydro due date of 2030. The system is U.L. 300 compliant and features a 2-gallon capacity manufactured in 2020.
The hood system protects multiple cooking appliances including convection ovens, a flat-top burner stove, steamer, microwave, and cookpot, with nozzle coverage of 4/2W and 4/1N types positioned at 45 inches and 40 inches respectively. The inspection confirmed all safety measures were operational, including fusible link testing, manual pull station activation, exhaust and make-up air verification, electrical shutdown functionality, and proper grease accumulation management (counted at 7 with temperature of 350°F/5/450°F). One critical deficiency was identified: the kitchen Class K fire extinguisher requires 6-year hydro service. The primary site contact is Tia Clemmer, Healthcare Engineer, reachable at 970-852-7243 or TIA.CLEMMER@VA.GOV, with monitoring services provided through account #2615QB at 1-800-631-2299.
