Abstract

According to the statistics released by Ministry of Public Safety and Security, the number of restaurant fires in Korea reached around 2,400 and 169 damages of human life and damages to property was approximately over $8.8 billion for recent 3 years. It could be desirable having automatic commercial fire-extinguishing equipment at commercial facilities excluding housing facilities for the safety, applying at the place first where it has been more risky and expected fire can be occurred relatively because economical burden can be accelerated. In order to do this, adjust its level to meet the same level of the kitchen for 'Specific Target for Fire Fighting' that "gas leak alarm" has be equipped relevant regulations and it is considered and reasonable to expand the limit of application gradually.

국민안전처 통계에 따르면 최근 3년간 우리나라 음식점에서 발생한 화재는 2천 4백여 건으로 169명에 이르는 인명피해(부상)와 88억 원이 넘는 재산피해를 냈으며 식용유 때문에 발생한 화재는 700건에 달한다. 이에 상업용 주방자동소화장치를 주거시설을 제외한 상업용 시설의 모든 주방에 설치하는 것이 국민의 안전을 위해 바람직하지만, 이는 경제적 부담을 가중할 수 있으므로, 상대적으로 많은 인명과 재산피해가 예상되는 곳부터 우선 적용되어야 한다. 이를 위해서는 특정 소방대상물의 주방에 수준으로 적용하고 향후 그 설치대상을 점차 확대 적용하는 것이 바람직하다고 보인다.
