About our ventilation duct cleaning in Otterbourne
Beyond the kitchen, TR19® Air covers the ordinary supply and extract systems that serve offices, schools and other buildings. It’s risk-based and inspection-led, so every job starts with a look inside the ducts. If you have dusty supply ductwork that hasn’t been cleaned in years and ventilation full of debris from building work, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Otterbourne, ducted ventilation is typically limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Your questions about ventilation duct cleaning in Otterbourne
Do you work in villages like Otterbourne?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can a school’s ventilation in Otterbourne be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Otterbourne, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
It depends on the building, how the system is used and what inspection finds. Regular inspection tells you when it’s due.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you will get one fixed quote.
What information do you need?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system, with the address and opening hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Do you provide a report?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. Keep them in the maintenance log.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Get leaks near ductwork fixed quickly
- Keep grilles and diffusers dusted
Before any works, think about the ducts. Turn off the system or cover the openings during dusty jobs.
TR19® Air works through regular inspection. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Honest limits
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Problems with how the system is controlled
- A system that is not designed to move enough air
- Cooking extract ducts, which are a separate specialist clean
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What happens on the day
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Somewhere as small as Otterbourne, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We survey the system from drawings, pictures or a site visit.
- Inspection comes next, with photos of the inside of the ducts.
- We protect the rooms beneath and switch the system off.
- Dust and debris are removed from ducts, grilles and diffusers.
- We issue a TR19® certificate and a photo report listing what was cleaned.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Fixed quotes for ventilation duct cleaning in Otterbourne
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Parking and loading at the site
- How easy every part is to reach
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.
What we need to know
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any previous report or certificate
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

What we are called out for in Otterbourne
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.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Ventilation full of debris from building work
- Systems with no record of inspection or cleaning
- Rooms that feel airless when the system runs
- Ductwork never cleaned since it was installed
Hospitals such as Royal Hampshire County Hospital (about 3.7 miles north) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Otterbourne are no different.
