What You Need For Your Application

Applying online is simple, secure and quick. Here is what you need to make your VHR application process as smooth as possible:

  • You will require details of your qualified Grease/Air Hygiene Technician(s) and their valid qualification certificate(s) so you can register them as part of your online application
  • Evidence of public liability insurance (a minimum of £2M)
  • Evidence of employers liability insurance (as appropriate)

If you are a BESA Member, you may already qualify for the Vent Hygiene Register as you will have deemed to satisfy through the BESA Competence Assessment Standard (CAS) Audit. Get in touch with the VHR Team on contact@venthygieneregister.com or 01768 860455 to find out if this applies to you.

The VHR Audit

As part of the VHR application approval process you will be required to complete the robust VHR audit, which provides assessment of our members' technical competence and commercial capability.

What is involved with the VHR Audit?

Business Management Review (BMR)

  • Company financials

  • Insurance policies

  • Health and Safety policies

  • Training and qualifications

Technical Audit

  • On-site technical Audit with a VHR Assessor
  • First 5 Audit - As part of onboarding, members must upload their first five post-clean reports for independent audit to confirm compliance with the reporting requirements of TR19® Grease and/or TR19® Air.

Read our top tips on how best to prepare for your on-site audit if you are chosen at random.

Qualifications and Training

To self-certify works on the VHR, the minimum qualification requirement is a Grease Hygiene Technician (GHT) for TR19® Grease activities, and an Air Hygiene Technician (AHT) for TR19® Air activities. We recognise the BESA Academy suite of Ventilation Hygiene training courses, as well as the GTOF 04 SCQF Level 5: Ventilation Hygiene Certificate (Grease).

If your staff require training, you can find a list of approved training centres on the BESA Academy website.
