TR19 inspection in Nyton, done properly
Think of a TR19 inspection as the diagnosis before the treatment. We look at the system, take grease readings and photograph what we find, so the clean can be planned properly. Common call-outs are for pre-clean surveys before a first TR19 clean and insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning, across access surveys, deposit thickness tests and pre-clean surveys.
In a village or hamlet like Nyton, the kitchens that need extract cleaning are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Every one of them still needs its extract kept clear of grease, whatever the size of the place.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What TR19 inspection looks like in Nyton
Food Standards Agency data counts about 13 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 5 takeaways and sandwich shops across Nyton and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Where they cook under a canopy, a grease reading is the way to tell whether the extract is due a clean. Food hygiene inspections in Nyton are the job of Arun council’s environmental health team. Extraction counts as kitchen equipment, so its condition can come up on the day. Keeping each certificate and photo report on file helps show the extract is looked after. Fire safety in Nyton falls to West Sussex 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.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Ormiston Six Villages Academy or anywhere near Nyton, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Goodwood House is about 3.6 miles north-west), event kitchens in older buildings often have awkward duct runs that need planning.
Nyton is about 4 miles north of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. Wherever you are in the PO20 postcode area, we can take on TR19 inspection. Our area takes in 371 places across West Sussex, from busy centres to quieter spots. You can also see our page for Portsmouth, roughly 18 miles from Nyton.

Landmarks near Nyton
Around Nyton, our work takes us to kitchens and buildings near Eastergate CofE Primary School, among other places. The nearest railway station is Barnham station, roughly 1.6 miles south-east. A little further out are Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital (3.4 miles south) and Tote Copse Castle (0.9 miles south-west).
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
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 the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Nyton knowing what to expect.
- First we look at the system’s cleaning history, if there is one.
- We follow the extract from canopy to discharge.
- Access panels are located and any missing ones noted.
- Grease readings are taken and pictures recorded.
- We report back with readings and a fixed quote.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Advice
Nyton: your questions answered
Which fire and rescue service is responsible for Nyton?
That is West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service. 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.
Can you get to a site in Nyton?
Yes. Nyton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What is a WFTT or DTT grease test?
The Wet Film Thickness Test (WFTT) and Deposit Thickness Test (DTT) measure how thick the grease is at a given point. Readings are taken at set points through the system.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
What grease levels does TR19 allow?
Under TR19® Grease, the mean thickness should not exceed 200 microns between cleans. 500 microns or more at any point calls for immediate spot cleaning.
How far ahead should we book?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
How the job changes from site to site
Vertical risers
Vertical risers take the extract up through the floors. Grease can run down and collect at the base, so we check there.
Extract fan and discharge
A greasy fan works harder and wears faster. The inspection shows whether it needs cleaning now.
What TR19 inspection can’t fix
Not every problem is solved by TR19 inspection, and we’ll tell you before we start. It won’t put right:
- Hidden runs that need access panels first
- Design faults in the extract system
- Fire safety duties beyond the extract system
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on in Nyton
- Deposit thickness tests
- Insurer audits
- Pre-clean surveys
- Wet film thickness tests
- Access surveys
- Post-clean checks
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Leave it or put it right?
Post-clean verification shows whether the system was left the way the certificate says, before the next clean is due. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

What else we do in Nyton
What we’re called out for in Nyton
When a site in Nyton changes owner or cleaning contractor, the records don’t always follow. Without them, nobody knows how much grease is in the system or when it was last cleaned.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Systems that need surveying before cleaning
- Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed
- Kitchens taken over with no cleaning records
- Ductwork where grease may be over the TR19 limits
Healthcare kitchens can’t easily close, so their extracts are cleaned overnight or between meal services; the nearest hospital to Nyton is Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital, about 3.4 miles south.
