TR19 inspection in Bartley

TR19 inspection in Bartley

Under TR19® Grease, the mean grease thickness should stay at or below 200 microns between cleans, and 500 microns or more at any point needs immediate spot cleaning. Grease testing shows which side of those lines you are on. The work covers access surveys, wet film thickness tests and post-clean checks, and common reasons people get in touch are systems that need surveying before cleaning and heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts.

In a small place like Bartley, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.

Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

Different parts, different methods

Horizontal duct runs

Sections without access are recorded so it can be fixed before the clean.

Canopy and plenum

The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. We take readings there and photograph it on every inspection.

How the visit works

Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Bartley can be planned properly.

  1. The visit is arranged for when the kitchen is not busy.
  2. Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
  3. Grease readings are taken at set points using WFTT or DTT.
  4. Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
  5. We send a report setting out the readings, pictures and next steps.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Move anything stored near the system

Grease, kitchens and Bartley

The Food Standards Agency lists about 9 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses as registered food businesses in Bartley and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them serving cooked food has an extract to keep clean, from canopy to discharge. The fire and rescue service for Bartley is Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Grease in a kitchen extract is a recognised fire risk, and the fire authority enforces the law on managing it in most commercial premises. In Bartley, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from New Forest council. The cleanliness of the kitchen and its equipment, extraction included, is part of what they check. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Bartley Church of England Junior School or anywhere near Bartley, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Tatchbury Mount Hospital about 1.8 miles north-east, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen.

Aftercare tips

How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
  • Keep to the recommended interval
  • Report grease dripping from the canopy
  • Store grease readings where your insurer can see them

Each report suggests the next clean and the next test, based on the readings and how the kitchen is used.

Clean, correctly fitted filters stop more grease reaching the duct. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

FAQs for Bartley

Do you work overnight in Bartley?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Do you clean school canteen extracts around Bartley out of term?

Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 3 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Bartley, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.

Is a quote from photos possible?

Normally, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. If pictures aren’t enough, we will survey first.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.

How much does TR19 inspection cost in Bartley?

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few pictures.

How much time does an inspection need?

Typically, the inspection takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. System size and access decide the rest.

When something else is needed

To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:

  • Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
  • Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
  • Hidden runs that need access panels first

If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Access surveys
  • Deposit thickness tests
  • Pre-clean surveys
  • Wet film thickness tests
  • Insurer audits
  • Post-clean checks

What affects the quote in Bartley

There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:

  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • The size of the system
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • The times the site is available

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

What to send for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Problems your staff have spotted

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
