Ductwork cleaning in Micheldever Station, done properly
Duct cleaning is the hardest part of an extract clean, and the part most often skipped. Sections with no way in can go uncleaned for years. We open up every reachable section and record any we cannot reach, so you know exactly where you stand. If you are dealing with fat dripping from the ductwork and high readings at a recent grease test, we can put it right, from multi-storey ducts, horizontal duct runs and access panels onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Micheldever Station, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Common questions in Micheldever Station
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Micheldever Station?
Micheldever Station is in the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. It’s worth keeping your fire risk assessment, TR19® certificates and photo reports together, ready to show.
Who inspects food businesses in Micheldever Station?
In Micheldever Station, it’s Winchester City council that carries out food hygiene inspections. It helps to keep the extract cleaning records with your food safety paperwork, so they’re ready if asked for.
How can I tell if my extract ducts are dirty?
We measure it. Readings are taken by Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). BESA guidance says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns, and 500 or more anywhere needs immediate spot cleaning.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
What does ductwork cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before work begins.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.

Look out for any of the following:
- Years of grease along the duct floor
- Heavy grease at the base of a riser
- Ductwork that has never been cleaned
- Fat dripping from the ductwork
A TR19® clean in Micheldever Station does not stop at the filters: the plenum, ductwork, fan and discharge are cleaned too.

The process
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the ductwork cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a shift or more, depending on the length of the runs and the number of access points. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Micheldever Station can be planned properly.
- First we diagnose: the route, the access and the grease levels.
- You get a fixed price before work starts.
- We clean section by section, working from panel to panel.
- Bends, risers and the base of each riser get extra attention.
- Readings, photos and a recommended next clean date complete the job.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

What the work involves, part by part
Vertical risers
Risers often pass through floors and walls, so fire dampers may be fitted where it crosses them. We test those as a separate job.
Access panels
Access panels are the doors that let us into the duct. Where there are none, those sections can’t be cleaned, and TR19 expects them to be recorded.
