What affects the quote in Adversane
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
- The condition we find in the survey
- The times the site is available
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels

AHU cleaning in Adversane
All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, with the unit switched off and made safe first. The work covers internal panels, heating and cooling coils and filter sections, and the jobs we see most are odours coming through the supply air and dirty filters cutting the airflow.
In a village or hamlet like Adversane, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before any work starts, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Adversane.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- We take before photos of each section of the unit.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- We take after photos and issue the certificate and report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

What do you need from me for a quote?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few photos and any previous report.
When something else is needed
We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Heating and cooling coils
- Drain trays
- Internal panels
- Supply and extract fans
- Dampers and louvres
- Filter sections
What happens if it’s left?
A light clean now is simpler than a heavy one later. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, especially where there’s been moisture. A fault that closes a site in a village like Adversane affects everyone who depends on it.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

How the job changes from site to site
Internal casing and panels
We open each section through its doors and close them securely when we are done before the unit is handed back.
Filters
Every AHU relies on its filters to catch dust before it reaches the coils. We check them, and clean or change them as agreed in the quote, and clean the filter housing.
Do you need AHU cleaning in Adversane?
Filters catch most of the dust, but not all of it. What gets through settles on coils, fans and the inside of the casing, a little more each month.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
In Adversane, we look inside the system before deciding what needs cleaning.
What to look for in a quote
- What records you will receive afterwards
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- Proof of insurance
- Whether they recommend a next date
