About our AHU cleaning in Albury
Our AHU cleaning covers sites in Albury and the rest of Surrey, in buildings such as offices, schools, healthcare sites and shops. Units are cleaned when the site can spare them, often evenings, overnight or weekends. Typical jobs include debris and leaves in the fresh air intake and plant that has been serviced but not cleaned, across internal panels, drain trays and supply and extract fans.
Work in a small place like Albury starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How it works
The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Albury before we set off.
- We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Move anything stored near the system

St. Luke’s Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 3 miles north-west of Albury. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that’s as true in a care home as in a hospital.

Is there a report after cleaning?

Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
What does AHU cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Can you clean the AHU out of hours?
Yes. We time the work to fit the building’s hours. Healthcare and care settings are planned with staff.
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- A single visit or a regular plan
- What state the system is in
- Any permits to work or inductions
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll normally have a quote within one working day.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

Leave it or put it right?
A light clean now is simpler than a heavy one later. Years of build-up make the job longer and harder, particularly where damp has made it stick. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Albury is calmer for everyone.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

Part by part
Rooftop and plant room units
Rooftop units take the weather, and intakes can collect leaves and debris. The intake section gets particular attention.
Filters
What’s on the filters is a good clue to what’s further in. They’re photographed before and after for your records.
Aftercare tips
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Don’t store bins or materials near the intake
- Book the next check in line with the report
If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. Cleaning the unit and ducts together gives the best result, and we can quote for both.
Change or clean filters on time. Overloaded filters let more dirt through to the coils and fan.
