About our TR19 inspection in Hound Green
TR19® Grease says grease should not exceed a mean of 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. If you have ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits and confirming a clean reached the whole system, we can help.
Rural kitchens often have long, low duct runs through a roof space or along an outside wall, where grease settles in the flat sections. We agree access and timings in advance.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Common questions in Hound Green
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Hound Green?
It’s Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service, which covers Hound Green. Records of extract cleaning are a sensible thing to have ready if a fire safety officer carries out an audit.
Can you come to Hound Green after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Do you carry out TR19 audits for insurers?
Yes, anywhere in the area we cover. Share the insurer’s request so the report addresses it.
What should I send you?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Hound Green kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s data shows about 3 hotels and B&Bs registered in and around Hound Green, up to about a mile and a half out. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. It’s Hart council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hound Green. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. A dated certificate in the maintenance file answers the question before it’s asked. Hound Green sits within the area of Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. Fire and rescue authorities enforce the Fire Safety Order in most non-domestic premises, and in a kitchen that fire risk includes the grease in the extract.
Healthcare kitchens cannot easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Hound Green is Fleet Community Hospital, about 5.3 miles south-east. If your kitchen is in a listed or historic building, like the houses around Hound Green (Stratfield Saye House is about 2.4 miles north-west), fitting access panels needs care.

What we do, step by step
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Hound Green can be planned properly.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- We note where access panels are and where more are needed.
- Grease readings are taken and photos recorded.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us where we can park and unload
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
