Fume and dust control across Gloucestershire

Gloucestershire runs from the cathedral city of Gloucester and the Regency spa town of Cheltenham to the market town of Cirencester in the Cotswolds. It is a county of spa and market-town kitchens and the aerospace, technology and agricultural estates of the Severn vale.

Every workshop across Gloucestershire that welds, machines, sprays, mills or bakes raises fume, mist or dust the law says must be controlled. We examine and test local exhaust ventilation across Gloucestershire to HSG258 - measured capture, a clear verdict and a reliable next-due date, from Bradley Stoke to Yate.

Fourteen months, and whose name is on it

A thorough examination and test under COSHH is a real assessment, not a rubber stamp. It is a structured examination of the system's condition, measurement of its actual performance, and an assessment of those readings against how the system should perform to control the exposure. It follows the HSE's guidance, HSG258, and ends in a report and a label.

From a Gloucester aerospace works to a Cirencester seed-treatment plant, the job ends in a report and a label - what was measured, what passed, and the date the next test falls due.

  • Visual and structural examination of hoods, ducting, filter and fan
  • Measured airflow, capture and face velocities at the working points
  • Static pressure and duct transport velocity readings recorded
  • Report against the benchmark, with a label and the next-due date

The workplaces that need an LEV test

01 / At source

Hoods & capture

The hoods and capture points are where the system either catches the fume, mist or dust or lets it escape. We measure capture and face velocities where the contaminant is released.

02 / The path

Ducting & air cleaner

We check the ducting for transport velocity and leaks and assess the filter or air cleaner - the parts that quietly degrade and drop a system below its design performance.

03 / The engine

Fan & discharge

We test the fan performance and the discharge, and measure the static pressure across the system - the readings that reveal a system pulling below its design figure.

The industries Gloucestershire runs, and the substances they raise

Gloucestershire raises fume and dust across an aerospace, technology and agricultural economy, and each site owes the same duty to control it and prove it. Gloucester runs aerospace and engineering works, Cheltenham tech and engineering works, and Cirencester seed-treatment and agricultural-chemical plants, with fabrication units throughout. We examine and test the extraction on all of it to HSG258.

Examine, measure, report, label

1

Inspect

We examine the condition of the hoods, ducting, filter and fan and how each is meant to control its process.

2

Test

We measure capture and face velocities, transport velocity and static pressure at every key point.

3

Assess

The readings are judged against the design benchmark under HSG258, with a clear pass or fail on control.

4

Certify

The plant is labelled and you get the report and next-due date for your COSHH records.

LEV Testing questions

Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?

Yes - across the county, from Gloucester and Cheltenham to Cirencester. Each town has its own page for this service; call 07961 915018 or use the contact form and we will confirm and quote.

Can you cover multiple sites across the county?

Yes. We look after multi-site operators across Gloucestershire on one schedule - a single survey, one set of certificates and a next-due date per site - so a group with kitchens in several towns keeps its compliance in one place.

Do you work around our opening hours?

Yes. We work overnight, early mornings, weekends and closing days so a Gloucestershire kitchen or workshop keeps running while we clean, degrease or test.

Is the work certified?

Yes. Duct and extraction cleaning is certified to TR19 Grease with a photo record, kitchen deep cleans carry a certificate and report for your food hygiene file, and LEV testing is reported and labelled to HSG258.

20+ years of experience

We have carried out LEV thorough examination and testing to HSG258 since 2001, across Gloucestershire and the UK. From a machine shop to a joinery, a spray booth or a lab fume cupboard, the job ends the same way: measured readings, a clear verdict, and a label whose next-due date you can rely on.
