TR19 inspection across Hunny Hill

For landlords and multi-site operators

If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

TR19 inspection in Hunny Hill, done properly

A pre-clean survey is the diagnosis, and the clean is the treatment. Readings, photos and notes on access are gathered from end to end, so the clean can be planned properly. The work covers wet film thickness tests, pre-clean surveys and access surveys, and common reasons people get in touch are missing access panels found on survey and heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts.

Around a smaller place like Hunny Hill, kitchen extracts tend to belong to pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Quieter kitchens still collect grease in the duct, just more slowly, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.

Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the quote in Hunny Hill

Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What state the system is in
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • Parking and loading at the site

Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Your last certificate, test record or report

Grease, kitchens and Hunny Hill

The Food Standards Agency lists about 20 pubs and bars and about 6 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses as registered food businesses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Hunny Hill. Breakfasts, bar meals and functions all put grease into the extract wherever they’re cooked. Hunny Hill is covered by 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. Food hygiene inspections in Hunny Hill are the job of Isle of Wight council’s environmental health team. They look at how clean the premises and equipment are, and the kitchen extract is part of that. Our report lists what was cleaned and when, which is useful to have ready.

A hospital like St Mary's Hospital, about within half a mile north, is the kind of site where a kitchen may cook for patients, staff and visitors all day. For schools such as Hunnyhill Primary School, kitchen extract cleaning is normally booked for the holidays, when the canteen is closed. Carisbrooke Castle, about 1.3 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses near Hunny Hill; if you run event catering at a venue like that, cleans can be booked between functions.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

Your questions about TR19 inspection in Hunny Hill

Do you do school kitchen extract cleaning in Hunny Hill in the summer holidays?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. There are about 18 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Hunny Hill. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll fit the work in.

Do you work at weekends in Hunny Hill?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Hunny Hill keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

How often should grease be tested?

Often enough to know the mean stays under 200 microns between cleans. The readings themselves tell you if the interval needs to change.

How much notice do you need?

For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.

What happens to the waste?

We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.

How much time does an inspection need?

Expect it to take an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. We fit it around when the kitchen is closed or quiet.

What the work involves, part by part

Schools, hospitals and care homes

Education kitchens need TR19 inspections like any other. Testing shows whether the interval suits.

Canopy and plenum

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

What happens if it’s left?

Catching heavy deposits early keeps the fix small. Ignored, the layer only gets thicker. A planned visit to Hunny Hill fits your hours; an emergency does not.

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.

Why us?

  • Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
  • A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
  • A written report with photos after each visit
  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line

Looking after it afterwards

So the system stays in good health:

  • Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
  • Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
  • Diary the next grease test and clean
  • Store grease readings where your insurer can see them

Any access problems we found are listed with a suggested fix. Fitting them before the next clean means the whole system gets done.

Fit access panels where the survey finds sections cannot be reached, so every part of the duct can be cleaned.

How it works

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes around an hour or two per canopy and duct system. Tell us when your site near Hunny Hill is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.

  1. We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
  2. We look over the canopy, plenum, ducts, fan and discharge.
  3. We take WFTT or DTT readings at set points along the system.
  4. Photos are taken at each point, and access gaps noted.
  5. We send a report setting out the readings, photos and next steps.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Let us know about parking and loading
