Do you operate a Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) system?

All Local Exhaust Ventilation Systems (LEV) need to have a Thorough Examination and Test (COSHH LEV Test) every 14 months or more often depending on type of system.

Every employer who provides any LEV to meet the regulations shall ensure:

“it is maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order, in good repair and in a clean condition” - Regulation 9 -1 COSHH.

The Vent-Tech approach

We understand the H&SE approach and carry out all LEV testing thoroughly and in full accordance with the current HSE guidance. All test are conducted by BOHS P601 qualified engineers in full compliance with the H&SE latest standards and regulations.

When conducting an LEV test, as part of our nationwide service we will:

• Assess all the exposure risks and carry out a full inspection of your system, including filters, fan belts and ducting
• Produce and issue to you an H&SE compliant report, including photographs and recommendations on any "issues" found
• Provide recommendations, including costs
• Provide a weekly LEV check sheet and provide training (if requested) in carrying out weekly LEV checks
• We will hold an electronic copy of your COSHH LEV report for five years (as required by the H&SE)

Typical LEV COSHH test cost:

• Single point extraction system: From £ 100.00 ex VAT
