Certification Scheme Cleanliness Air Treatment and Ventilation Systems.

Inleiding

The Nederlands Verbond Reinigingsspecialisten Luchtbehandelingssystemen (NVRL), together with TNO Bouw en Ondergrond, has developed a hallmark for cleaning air handling systems in utility buildings (offices, schools, etc.). The hallmark focuses on keeping air handling systems clean with the goal of reducing health risks due to contamination in these systems.

Based on the NVRL inspection, it is possible to receive the NVRL certificate. The certificate guarantees the cleanliness of the ventilation and air treatment system. The certificate can be obtained if the standards of the NVRL Inspection are met and is provided by a company affiliated with the NVRL. If the hygiene limits are met, a seal of approval is issued for the duration of 1 year.

This certification scheme deals with grease contamination. The regulation applies to kitchen exhaust systems in catering establishments, hospitals, nursing homes and offices, and exhaust ducts in the (food) industry, such as bakeries.
