TR19 inspection near Warblington

TR19 inspection for kitchens and businesses in Warblington

Many insurers ask for proof that kitchen extract systems are cleaned and inspected to TR19®. Without it, a claim can be refused or reduced. A TR19 audit sets out the system’s condition, with readings and photos, for sites in Warblington and the rest of Hampshire. The work covers access surveys, wet film thickness tests and post-clean checks, and common reasons people get in touch are missing TR19 certificates or history and confirming a clean reached the whole system.

In a small place like Warblington, kitchens are often in older or extended buildings, with long single-storey duct runs, where grease settles in the flat sections. Access, parking and timings are agreed before the day.

It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Between visits

Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:

  • Keep TR19 certificates, readings and reports together
  • Clean or swap grease filters as often as the kitchen needs
  • Keep canopy edges and gutters wiped down
  • Have the latest report ready for insurance renewals

Readings of 500 microns or more are highlighted as needing immediate spot cleaning, and we can quote to do it.

Keep filters clean and in place. Gaps around filters let grease get past them.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

TR19 inspection in Warblington: the local picture

Warblington is within about 1 mile of the coast. Corrosion on the fan housing and cowl is worth a look at every clean, alongside the grease. The FSA’s data shows about 17 pubs, bars and clubs and about 4 hotels and guest houses registered across Warblington and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Where they serve hot food, their kitchen extracts need cleaning to TR19® like any restaurant’s. Warblington is covered by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service. In most workplaces, including commercial kitchens, it’s the fire and rescue authority that enforces the Fire Safety Order.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Bosmere Junior School or anywhere near Warblington, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near St Thomas à Becket Church or elsewhere in Warblington, its extract still collects grease from every lunch and event.

Different parts, different methods

Canopy and plenum

The plenum behind the filters can carry a lot of grease. Readings and pictures are taken in the plenum on every inspection.

Extract fan and discharge

Grease builds up on the fan blades and inside the housing. We check and test them as part of the inspection.

How the visit works

Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes anything from an hour for a small canopy and short duct to a good part of a day for a large site. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Warblington can be planned properly.

  1. We agree a time when the kitchen is closed or quiet.
  2. Every part of the system is examined, end to end.
  3. Grease thickness is measured at set points by WFTT or DTT.
  4. Each test point and any access problems are photographed.
  5. The findings go into a report with readings, pictures and a recommended next clean.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

How to get a quote

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.

Advice

Common questions in Warblington

Do you work in villages like Warblington?

Yes, Warblington is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can a school canteen extract in Warblington be done out of term time?

Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Warblington, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.

What do you do to protect the area?

We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before we start, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.

Is a quote from photos possible?

Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.

How far ahead should we book?

Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

Can you verify a clean after it’s been done?

Post-clean verification is a check after a clean, with fresh grease readings and pictures. It works whoever carried out the clean.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

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

What happens if it’s left?

Without readings, you are guessing when to clean. Any reading of 500 microns or more needs immediate spot cleaning under TR19® Grease, which you will not know without measuring. In a small place like Warblington, a system that fails can take a site out of use.

We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

Signs you need TR19 inspection in Warblington

Not every section of a kitchen extract is easy to get to, and grease can be missed there clean after clean. An inspection of a system in Warblington shows where access panels are missing, so panels can be fitted.

The symptoms we’re asked about most include:

  • Insurance renewals needing proof of TR19 cleaning
  • Missing TR19 certificates or history
  • Checking the result of a recent clean
  • Kitchens whose menu or hours have changed

If you cook for passing trade around Warblington station, the extract can be cleaned between your last and first customer.

Before you book anyone

  • Proof of insurance
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
