Verification scope
Analysis published September 9, 2026. The two cited sources — the fire standard’s inspection-frequency structure and the California business-records exception — were checked against the primary sources listed on the article. The article’s characterization of commercial property coverage is a description of common industry practice, stated as such in the Limitations section; it asserts no specific policy terms, and the governing terms are those of the reader’s own policy.
Primary sources consulted
| Claim | Primary source | Verified |
|---|---|---|
| Inspection and cleaning frequency by cooking volume and type. | NFPA 96, in the edition adopted by the reader’s state. | Sep 9, 2026 |
| Evidentiary weight of a contemporaneous record. | California Evidence Code § 1271, business records exception. | Sep 9, 2026 |
