About our TR19 inspection in Lower Froyle
Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Missing records can lead to a claim being reduced or refused. Our TR19 audits give sites in Lower Froyle and across Hampshire a clear record of the system’s condition. Typical jobs include missing access panels found on survey and insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning, on deposit thickness tests, insurer audits and wet film thickness tests.
Somewhere as small as Lower Froyle, commercial kitchens are few: perhaps a pub, a school or care home kitchen, or a hall used for events. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Do you need TR19 inspection in Lower Froyle?
Grease in a duct is flammable fuel. Flames from the range can be pulled into the canopy and travel through the ducts to other parts of the building. Knowing how much there is lets you act before it becomes a hazard.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Heavy grease suspected in the plenum or ducts
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Confirming a clean reached the whole system
- Missing TR19 certificates or history
Kitchens that cook twelve hours or more a day, as some healthcare kitchens do, fall into BESA’s three-monthly minimum; Alton Community Hospital is the nearest hospital to Lower Froyle, about 4.8 miles south-west.
What to look for in a quote

What happens if it’s left?
Don’t wait for an EHO visit or insurance renewal to find gaps in your extract records. A recent inspection report means you’re ready when asked. A planned visit to Lower Froyle is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

What happens on the day
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes a morning or less for one kitchen, more where there are several systems, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. In a small place like Lower Froyle, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- 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
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
How to get a quote

Lower Froyle questions
Will you come out to Lower Froyle?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you work overnight in Lower Froyle?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Lower Froyle keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
How do you measure grease in a kitchen extract?
Grease thickness testing measures the layer of grease on the duct surfaces, by WFTT or DTT. Each reading is recorded in microns.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Are you accredited?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
How long does a TR19 inspection take?
It takes an hour or two for a single kitchen, longer for a large or complex system. The visit is timed so cooking isn’t disrupted.
What happens to the waste?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
What TR19 inspection cannot fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what TR19 inspection won’t do:
- Sections with no access, until panels are fitted
- The grease itself, which needs a full or spot clean
- Design faults in the extract system
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Where we work
- Post-clean checks
- Access surveys
- Deposit thickness tests
- Insurer audits
- Pre-clean surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
What the work involves, part by part
Restaurants, pubs and hotels
A kitchen running from breakfast to late service builds grease quickly. Regular testing shows whether the cleaning interval keeps up.
Horizontal duct runs
Sections without access are recorded so panels can be added.
What affects the quote in Lower Froyle
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How big the system is
- The times the site is available
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

Lower Froyle kitchens: local notes
Food hygiene inspections in Lower Froyle are the job of East Hampshire council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. A TR19® certificate and photo report after each clean gives you a record to show an inspector. Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service covers Lower Froyle. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel.
Where a hall near Church of St Mary of the Assumption, or anywhere in Lower Froyle, hosts lunch clubs or events, its extract gathers grease just as a café’s does.

Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Don’t box in or cover duct access panels
- Flag changes in how much frying the kitchen does
- Send TR19 audit reports to your insurer on request
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
Readings of 500 microns or more are highlighted as needing immediate spot cleaning, and we can arrange it.
Keep filters clean and in place. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.
