Fume and dust control across Leicestershire

Leicestershire runs from the city of Leicester through the university town of Loughborough to the market towns of Hinckley and Melton Mowbray. It is a county of city and market-town kitchens and the composites, food and engineering estates of the east Midlands.

Every workshop across Leicestershire 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 Leicestershire to HSG258 - measured capture, a clear verdict and a reliable next-due date, from Coalville to Wigston.

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 a Loughborough flour mill to a Melton Mowbray pork-pie works, 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 Leicestershire runs, and the substances they raise

Leicestershire raises fume and dust across a composites, food and engineering economy, and each site owes the same duty to control it and prove it. Leicester runs composites and engineering works, Loughborough its flour mills, and Melton Mowbray the pork-pie and food manufacturing works, while Hinckley runs catering-equipment refurbishment shops, with engineering units throughout. We examine and test the extraction on all of it to HSG258.

Examine, measure, report, label

1

Inspect

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

2

Take readings

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

3

Judge

The readings are assessed against the design intent under HSG258, with a clear verdict on control.

4

Label up

The plant is labelled with the result and next-due date, and you get the report for the COSHH file.

LEV Testing questions

Do you cover the whole of Leicestershire?

Yes - across the county, from Leicester and Loughborough to Hinckley and Melton Mowbray. 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 Leicestershire 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 Leicestershire kitchen or works 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 Leicestershire 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.
