AHU cleaning across Aldwick

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Aldwick and across West Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

AHU cleaning in Aldwick, done properly

Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. We clean coils with methods suited to their condition, taking care not to damage the fins. If you have dirty fans and fan housings and units that have only ever had filter changes, we can help, from heating and cooling coils, internal panels and drain trays onwards.

Smaller buildings around Aldwick often keep their ventilation units in a roof void or plant cupboard, out of sight and easy to overlook. Filters, coils and drain trays need attention whatever the size of the unit.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Aldwick

We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:

  • The times the site is available
  • What state the system is in
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Any permits to work or inductions

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

Helping us quote

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Any previous report or certificate

Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

AHU cleaning in Aldwick: local notes

There are about 15 schools, colleges and universities, about 29 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 5 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of central Aldwick. Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. About 56 miles out from central London, Aldwick is part of the South East area we work across. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 1.5 miles north-east of Aldwick. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that’s as true in a care home as in a hospital.

Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital (about 1.5 miles north-east) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. If you manage a school such as Nyewood CofE Junior School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

What happens if it’s left?

Dirty coils and fans make the unit strain to move the same air. The result is extra wear and a building that does not feel as comfortable, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. When a site near Aldwick shuts unexpectedly, the people who rely on it notice at once.

You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

What happens on the day

At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. In a place like Aldwick, we fit the visit around your hours.

  1. First the unit is surveyed, from pictures or a visit, and the scope agreed.
  2. We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
  3. We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
  4. Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
  5. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.

Advice

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Aldwick

Do you work overnight in Aldwick?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Aldwick does not have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Can you clean school ventilation in Aldwick during the holidays?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. There are about 15 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Aldwick. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will fit the work in.

Do you work in Aldwick?

Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, Aldwick included.

Can you quote from pictures?

In many cases, yes. With good pictures, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.

What’s TR19?

A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.

Will we get paperwork for the AHU clean?

Yes. You receive a certificate and a report showing each section before and after, including anything we think needs attention.

Which accreditations do you hold?

CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.

What AHU cleaning cannot fix

We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
  • Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
  • Ventilation that was badly designed in the first place

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.

Where we work

  • Heating and cooling coils
  • Drain trays
  • Internal panels
  • Dampers and louvres
  • Supply and extract fans
  • Filter sections

Between visits

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:

  • Stick to the filter change plan
  • Report stiff or damaged access doors
  • Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
  • Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant

Photos in the report cover the filters, coils, drain tray, fan and casing, and note any part we couldn’t get to. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.

Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. If a section is hard to get into, it tends not to get checked.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
