Vent Hygiene Register (VHR)

The UK’s only Vent Hygiene Register for contractors you can trust. Vent hygiene is more than just cleaning, it’s fire prevention.

It’s easy to forget about those “out of sight, out of mind” areas in your commercial kitchen like extract ducts, filters and fans, which must be cleaned regularly to:

• Help prevent fire
• Improve the efficiency of your equipment
• Create a healthier environment for you, your staff and customers
• Meet strict hygiene standards

The Vent Hygiene Register is recognised by the London Fire Brigade and many insurers including the RISCAuthority. TR19® Grease is the industry recognised specification for specialist hygiene works. Published by BESA, it has had technical input from a number of Vent Hygiene Registered contractors. If the unthinkable was to happen and a fire broke out in your premises, during an inspection your insurance company and fire investigators will want evidence of:

• when did you last have your grease duct extraction system cleaned?
• and was the contractor qualified to TR19® and an Approved VHR Member?
