Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Ventilation duct cleaning in Horton-cum-Studley
TR19® Air is the part of BESA’s TR19® that deals with general supply and extract ventilation. It works by inspecting first and cleaning where the risk calls for it, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. We are often asked to deal with systems with no record of inspection or cleaning and poor airflow from the vents, on hospitals and care homes, supply ductwork and general extract ductwork.
Somewhere as small as Horton-cum-Studley, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Tell your facilities team about dirty diffusers
- Keep to the inspection interval in your report
- Don’t run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
- File each ventilation report with the building records
The report lists the sections we cleaned and any we couldn’t reach, backed up by before and after pictures. We’ll suggest where new access panels would help.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Inspecting on a schedule catches build-up before it becomes a big clean.
How the job changes from site to site
Extract ductwork
Extract fans pull air through these ducts, so a blocked duct strains them. A clean duct takes the load off.
Hospitals and care homes
In healthcare and care settings, there’s no quiet time. We plan the order of work with the site team to keep disruption down.

What ventilation duct cleaning can’t fix

- Problems with how the system is controlled
- Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean
- Leaking or broken duct sections

What the work covers
- Toilet extract systems
- General extract ductwork
- Supply ductwork
- Hospitals and care homes
- Grilles and diffusers
- Offices and schools
The process
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Visits to a village like Horton-cum-Studley are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- We cover the area below and turn off the system.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- The report records what was cleaned, anything not reached and a next inspection date.
Before we arrive
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Can you get to a site in Horton-cum-Studley?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you work evenings and weekends?
Yes, whenever daytime working isn’t practical. Tell us when the system can be switched off and we’ll plan to that.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes usually come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

As a guide, it takes a shift or two for a small system, longer for a whole building. Bigger sites are split into stages, and we will confirm the plan when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
How often do ventilation ducts need cleaning?
Under TR19® Air, the answer comes from inspecting the ducts. Busy or sensitive buildings may need it more often.

When to call us in Horton-cum-Studley
Refits and building work send dust into ventilation systems, especially when the system runs during the work. That dust can stay in the ducts long after the builders leave.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Extract ducts clogged with lint and dust
- Ventilation that needs a TR19® Air inspection
- Ducts that need a clean before handover
- Dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years
Ventilation work in and around Horton-cum-Studley is risk-based: inspect, then clean what needs it.
