About our TR19 inspection in Hangersley
Grease thickness testing tells you how much grease is sitting in the canopy, ducts and fan. Readings are taken at set points using the Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) or the Deposit Thickness Test (DTT). From the numbers, you can see whether cleaning is due. The work covers pre-clean surveys, insurer audits and access surveys, and people most often call us about post-clean verification after another contractor’s clean and systems cleaned on a calendar with no measurements.
Work in a small place like Hangersley starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean itself is the same full TR19® job as in any town: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: 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.

Hangersley questions
Can you get to a site in Hangersley?
Yes, Hangersley is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Hangersley?
In Hangersley, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Ratings are published by the Food Standards Agency, so a clean extract and good records are worth keeping up.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Why survey before a clean?
It’s a look at the whole extract before it’s cleaned, with readings and pictures. The survey can be done from photos and details or on site, as suits the job.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What grease levels does TR19 allow?
TR19® Grease says the mean shouldn’t exceed 200 microns between cleans, with 500 microns or more anywhere needing immediate spot cleaning.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
It’s an inspection after cleaning, to show what state the system was left in, whoever did the clean.
TR19 inspection in Hangersley: the local picture
Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Hangersley. A greasy canopy or dripping filters are the sort of thing an inspection can pick up. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Hangersley is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Its fire safety officers can audit commercial kitchens, and grease in the extract is part of a kitchen’s fire risk.
A hospital like St Leonard's Hospital, about 5.4 miles south-west, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hangersley (Avon Tyrrell House is about 4.1 miles south), fitting access panels needs care.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Keep the route to access panels clear
- Keep to the recommended interval
- File every inspection report with your certificates
- Tell us if menus or opening hours change
For an insurer audit, send them the report as it is, including readings, photos and any inaccessible sections.
Keep filters clean and in place. Missing or damaged filters let grease straight into the plenum.
How the visit works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Hangersley run smoothly.
- After the clean, we arrange a time to check the system.
- We open the access points used on the clean.
- Grease readings are taken again at set points.
- We photograph each area to record how it was left.
- We report the findings and flag any areas that need more work.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

When to call us in Hangersley
Kitchens change: a new menu, longer hours or more frying can all add grease. The old cleaning schedule may not match the kitchen any more.
Clients normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
- Pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean
- Insurers asking for TR19 evidence
Volunteers running a hall kitchen near St John the Baptist, or anywhere in Hangersley, may not know when the extract was last cleaned, and a grease test settles it.

- Whether the price is fixed
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
