Tourist destinations can feature an amazing variety of buildings, including historic properties, National Trust sites, galleries, and museums, which all attract large crowds. While these venues must follow the same regulations, they often face unique challenges in achieving compliance for their buildings’ air and water systems.
With over 40 years of industry experience, Swiftclean has successfully tackled complex challenges to ensure compliance with regulations for air and water systems. Our customised solutions and focus on quality make us a trusted partner for companies that need to improve their environmental systems.
Ventilation cleaning
Ventilation cleaning is a critical building service discipline that is frequently overlooked, yet it is essential for ensuring the health, safety, and well-being of all individuals who use your building.
The primary guidance document relevant to the hygiene of ventilation systems is TR19® Air, which has established itself as the recognised standard for the internal cleanliness of ventilation systems and ductwork cleaning. Adhering to this standard is vital for maintaining optimal air quality and ensuring the safety of all users and visitors to your building.
Swiftclean’s ventilation services include:
Fire Damper Testing
Fire dampers are important safety devices that help stop the fast spread of fire and smoke through ductwork in buildings. They are fitted into ductwork which passes through fire-rated walls and floors which are fire compartment barriers. Fire dampers slow down the spread of fire, giving people time to safely evacuate a building. To ensure they work properly when needed, fire dampers must be regularly tested and maintained.
Indoor Air Quality Monitoring
Poor IAQ can have serious health consequences for visitors and staff, including respiratory issues, allergies, and other chronic conditions. In historic buildings, it can also negatively impact the preservation of the building itself.
There is a legal requirement to conduct appropriate air testing if your risk assessments carried out under The Management of Health & Safety at Work Regulations have identified that there are substances or activities occurring on site which pose specific health risks related to air quality.
