TR19 inspection in Further Quarter
Post-clean verification is a check carried out once the cleaning is done, with new readings and pictures of the cleaned areas. It gives you evidence of how the system was actually left. Typical jobs include insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning and ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits, across pre-clean surveys, deposit thickness tests and post-clean checks.
For a kitchen in or near Further Quarter, the visit is planned around opening hours and the journey, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Never cook with filters missing
- Keep to the recommended interval
- Mention new equipment or longer hours at the next test
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and pictures. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.
Close the access gaps found during inspection, so grease isn’t left building in hidden parts.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.

Advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Part by part
Horizontal duct runs
Sections without access are recorded so panels can be added.
Extract fan and discharge
The discharge at the end of the system is checked as well, as grease can build up there too.

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Further Quarter
Looking at a canopy tells you little about what’s in the duct. A system can look clean at the filters and be heavily coated further in, which is why readings matter.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Sections of duct that can’t be reached
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
- Extracts that may be over the 200 micron mean
- Post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean
A hospital like Benenden Hospital, about 4.5 miles south-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day.

Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, then a fixed quote.
