TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Nether Worton
BESA sets minimum cleaning intervals by daily use: every 3 months for heavy use of 12 to 16 hours a day, every 6 months for moderate use of 6 to 12 hours, and every 12 months for light use of 2 to 6 hours. Those are minimums, and grease readings help set the real interval. If you have ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits and kitchen extract systems with no recent grease readings, we can put it right.
Work in a small place like Nether Worton starts with a call to agree access and timings, and the clean covers the whole system, as it would anywhere: canopy to discharge, then a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What a clean will not put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Ductwork that was designed or installed badly
- Fan breakdowns, which need a repair visit
- Removing the grease, which is a separate clean
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Wet film thickness tests
- Post-clean checks
- Deposit thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Insurer audits
- Pre-clean surveys
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
- Clean grease off the canopy between professional cleans
- Book the next test on the date in the report
- Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals
After the inspection, we send a report showing each reading, its location and pictures. Keep it with your fire safety and TR19 records.
Keep certificates, reports and readings in one place so you can produce them quickly.
Your questions about TR19 inspection in Nether Worton
Can you get to a site in Nether Worton?
Yes, Nether Worton is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who enforces fire safety at workplaces in Nether Worton?
Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue service for Nether Worton. TR19® isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark many fire officers and insurers look to when they ask how often the extract is cleaned.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
WFTT and DTT are the two methods for measuring grease thickness, in microns. Readings are taken at set points through the system.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we normally come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.
How far ahead should we book?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Do you check other contractors’ cleans?
Verification means repeat readings and pictures once the clean is done. The report flags anything missed.

What affects the quote in Nether Worton
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The condition of the system
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How big the system is
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What we need to know
We can often survey from photos. Try to include:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Need a price for TR19 inspection? Please ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us about the site. We will explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before you commit to anything.
What happens if it’s left?
Skipping grease testing leaves the cleaning interval to guesswork. If grease reaches 500 microns anywhere, TR19® Grease calls for immediate spot cleaning, and you can only act on that if you’ve measured it. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What we do, step by step
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a couple of hours for a typical kitchen extract system. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Nether Worton run smoothly.
- We go through any past certificates and reports.
- The layout is traced from the canopy to the discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- We measure the grease and photograph each point.
- You get a report and a fixed quote for the clean.
How to prepare
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
