Keep Your Systems Compliant Between Tests

Regular LEV servicing ensures your system maintains peak performance between statutory Throrough Exaimination and Test (TExT) and prevents costly unplanned downtime. Our BOHS qualified engineers (P601, P602, P603, P604, W201) provide expert maintenance that goes beyond basic filter changes - we identify potential issues before they escalate and can advise if poor performance stems from maintenance problems or fundamental design limitations and provide expert maintenance across the UK.

Why Regular LEV Servicing Matters

Prevents Test Failures Regular maintenance identifies and resolves issues before your 14-month statutory test, avoiding costly failed inspections and remedial works.

Extends Equipment Lifespan Well-maintained LEV systems last significantly longer. Regular servicing prevents premature wear on motors, fans, and filters, protecting your investment.

Maintains Worker Protection A poorly maintained system gradually loses effectiveness, putting your workforce at risk from harmful contaminants. Regular servicing ensures consistent protection.

Reduces Energy Costs Blocked filters and dirty fans force systems to work harder, consuming more electricity. Clean, well-maintained systems are more energy efficient.

Avoids Unplanned Downtime Emergency breakdowns halt production and require urgent, expensive repairs. Preventative maintenance catches problems early.

Meets HSG258 Guidance HSG258 recommends regular maintenance between statutory tests. Documented servicing demonstrates your commitment to compliance.

How Often Should LEV Systems Be Serviced?

Service frequency depends on your system usage and environment:

High-Use Environments (Continuous operation, heavy dust/fume load)

• Monthly visual inspections
• Quarterly filter changes/cleaning
• 6-monthly comprehensive service

Standard Industrial Use (5-day operation, moderate contamination)

• Quarterly filter maintenance
• 6-monthly service
• Annual pre-test service

Light-Use Systems (Occasional use, light contamination)

• 6-monthly inspections
• Annual comprehensive service

We can create a tailored maintenance schedule based on your specific operation, ensuring optimal performance and compliance.

LEV Servicing vs. LEV Testing - What's the Difference?

LEV Testing (TExT) is the statutory 14-month thorough examination required by COSHH regulations to prove your system works effectively. This includes detailed air velocity measurements, static pressure readings, and a certificate of thorough examination.

LEV Servicing is ongoing maintenance to keep your system performing well between tests. This includes filter changes, cleaning, adjustments, and repairs.

Think of it like a car: Testing is your MOT (statutory requirement), servicing is your regular oil changes and maintenance (keeps it running well).

Best practice: Regular servicing + statutory testing = reliable, compliant LEV system.

Comprehensive Service Inspection

During every service visit, our BOHS qualified engineers:

✓ Inspect all extraction hoods for damage or blockages

✓ Check ductwork joints and connections for leaks

✓ Test fan operation and bearing condition

✓ Monitor motor electrical consumption

✓ Inspect and clean/replace filters as needed

✓ Check drive belts for tension and wear

✓ Clean internal surfaces and collect dust buildup

✓ Test airflow at key points

✓ Check control systems and interlocks

✓ Provide detailed service report with recommendations

BOHS Qualified Maintenance Engineers

Our engineers don't just change filters - they bring comprehensive LEV knowledge:

P601 & P604 qualified means we understand how LEV systems should perform and can identify when maintenance issues are affecting effectiveness.

P602 design knowledge enables us to spot when poor performance stems from design issues rather than maintenance problems, saving you money on unnecessary repairs.

P603 PPE expertise means we can advise if respiratory protection is needed while maintenance is carried out.

This comprehensive training means we provide intelligent servicing, not just routine tasks.
