Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep the TR19 certificate and photo report in the maintenance log
- Keep vents and grilles clear of shelving and stock
- Watch for water stains around grilles
- Stick to the filter change schedule
What was cleaned is listed, along with any parts that weren’t accessible, with photos before and after. If access panels are needed, we will say where.
Regular inspection is the core of TR19® Air. Scheduled inspections spot dust before it becomes a major job.
Part by part
Grilles and diffusers
Grilles and diffusers are where the ducts meet the room. They’re cleaned along with the ductwork, so dust on them isn’t blown back in.
Supply ductwork
Dust in supply ducts can be blown straight into occupied rooms. Cleaning it deals with the source.
What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before work begins, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes from one overnight visit to a phased programme over several weeks. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Rusher's Cross knowing what to expect.
- First we check the layout and any past paperwork.
- Inspection points are chosen and the ducts examined.
- The work area is protected and the system switched off.
- Ducts, grilles and diffusers are cleaned and the debris taken away.
- We report on the work, listing any inaccessible sections and the next inspection date.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Rusher's Cross questions
Can you work in Rusher's Cross outside opening hours?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Rusher's Cross can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you cover Rusher's Cross for ventilation duct cleaning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Rusher's Cross is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we’ll arrange a survey.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
How do you deal with ducts you can’t get into?
Nothing is hidden: any section we couldn’t get into is listed. We can install panels to open those sections up.
What information do you need?
Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
How long will the duct cleaning take?
As a guide, it takes anything from a single shift for a small office to a planned programme of nights for a large building. Large buildings can be phased, often out of hours, to fit around the building.
How often should ventilation ductwork be cleaned?
It depends on the building, how the system is used and what inspection finds. Inspecting regularly shows when cleaning is needed.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
Why act early in Rusher's Cross
Dust streaks around grilles and stale rooms suggest the ducts need looking at. Dealing with them now stops them getting worse. It’s simpler to plan the work at Rusher's Cross now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
