Fume and dust control across Isle of Wight

The Isle of Wight runs from the county town of Newport at the head of the Medina to the yachting port of Cowes, the ferry town of Ryde and the resort seafronts of Sandown, Shanklin and Ventnor. It is an island of holiday kitchens, harbour restaurants and the marine, aerospace and composites estates strung along the Medina estuary.

Every workshop across Isle of Wight 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 Isle of Wight to HSG258 - measured capture, a clear verdict and a reliable next-due date, from Cowes to Shanklin.

Fourteen months, and whose name is on it

The point of a thorough examination and test is to prove the extraction still controls the exposure - so we measure it, we do not eyeball it. Condition, capture and face velocities, transport velocity and static pressure are checked against the design intent under HSG258, and the result is written up and labelled on the plant.

From an East Cowes composite shop to a Cowes paint shed, the job ends in a report and a label - what was measured, what passed, and the date the next test falls due.

The workplaces that need an LEV test

01 / Capture

Hoods at source

Control stands or falls at the hood. We measure capture and face velocities at the point the fume, mist or dust is actually released, not just at the fan.

02 / The system

Ducting & cleaner

Transport velocity, leakage and the air cleaner all decide whether the contaminant reaches discharge. We inspect and measure the length of the system, not a sample of it.

03 / Pressure

Fan & static pressure

Fan performance and static pressure are where a quietly failing system gives itself away. We take the readings that separate a working system from one that only looks it.

The industries Isle of Wight runs, and the substances they raise

The Isle of Wight raises fume, mist and dust across a marine, aerospace and composites economy, and each site owes the same duty to control it and prove it. East Cowes runs aerospace and composite shops, Cowes marine fabrication and paint sheds, and West Medina composite and wind-blade work, while Newport carries the island's engineering and joinery units and the resort towns their vehicle and boatyard trades. 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 the Isle of Wight?

Yes - across the island, from Newport, Ryde and Cowes to the resort seafronts of Sandown, Shanklin and Ventnor. 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 island?

Yes. We look after multi-site operators across the Isle of Wight 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 an Isle of Wight 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 Isle of Wight 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.
