The workplace (Health, Safety & Welfare) Regulations 1992 came into force in 1996.

These regulations were accompanied by an Approved Code of Practice and Guidance (L24).

Paragraph 22 of the ACOP states that equipment, including ventilation systems, require a system of maintenance involving regular inspection and cleaning, if necessary, carried out at regular intervals, and that a suitable record is kept.

• Periodic internal inspection of plant and ductwork,

By adopting low cost preventative measures now, expensive remedial works can be avoided in the future.
