HTM Maintenance FAQs

What HTM standards apply to ventilation maintenance?

The primary standard is HTM 03-01, which covers specialised ventilation in healthcare premises. This is complemented by HTM 00, HTM 01-05 for dental facilities, and specific guidance for operating theatres, isolation rooms, and pharmacy areas. Our maintenance programmes comply with all relevant standards.

How often should healthcare ventilation systems be maintained?

HTM 03-01 recommends quarterly inspection and maintenance of critical ventilation systems, with annual verification testing. Operating theatres and isolation rooms typically require more frequent verification of pressure regimes and HEPA filter integrity, depending on usage patterns.

What verification testing do you provide?

Our verification testing includes airflow measurement, particle counting, pressure cascade verification, filter integrity testing using dispersed oil particulate (DOP) methods, and microbial sampling where required. All testing is performed using calibrated equipment with traceable certification.

How do you minimise disruption to clinical services?

We schedule maintenance and testing during planned downtime where possible. For critical areas, we develop phased testing approaches in consultation with clinical staff. Our experienced technicians work efficiently to minimise system downtime while ensuring thorough verification.

What documentation do you provide?

We provide comprehensive documentation including verification certificates, test results for each system component, comparison with commissioning data, identification of non-compliances, and recommendations for remedial actions. All documentation meets HTM requirements for auditing and regulatory inspection.
