- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
Common problems we fix in Allbrook
No filter stops everything. What gets through settles on coils, fans and the inside of the casing, a little more each month.
What we are most often called out for:
- Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
- Condensate trays that will not empty
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Allbrook, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Moorgreen Hospital (about 4.5 miles south).

AHU cleaning in Allbrook
An AHU clean is a thorough examination and treatment of the unit. We look inside each section, clean what we find and record it with pictures, so the report shows exactly what was done. If you have stale or musty smells from the ventilation and drain trays holding standing water, we can put it right.
In a smaller place like Allbrook, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Even a small system collects dust in its ducts and filters.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

FAQs for Allbrook
Do you clean school ventilation in Allbrook in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 12 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Allbrook. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we’ll fit the work in.
Can you get to a site in Allbrook?
Yes, Allbrook is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Can you clean the AHU out of hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and weekends, so offices, schools and shops can carry on.
How long does an AHU clean take?
Typically the clean takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. The shutdown is planned to fit, including evenings or weekends.
How often should an air handling unit be cleaned?
Inspection under TR19® Air decides it. A hard-working unit, or one serving a hospital or care home, may need cleaning more often.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can survey both on the same visit.
The process
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts, and we clear up before we go. In a smaller place like Allbrook, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Getting a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Looking after it afterwards
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
- Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records
- Report musty smells from the vents right away
If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can survey both.
Keep the unit’s doors and panels in working order. If a section is hard to get into, it tends not to get checked.
Leave it or put it right?
Facilities teams are often asked for evidence that the ventilation is looked after. Our certificate and photo report give you clear evidence, for audits, tenants or your own peace of mind. A quieter site near Allbrook still needs its system looked after.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll talk you through it.

Ventilation in Allbrook buildings
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 12 schools, colleges and universities, about 32 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 3 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses with registered kitchens or food service within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Allbrook. Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. Moorgreen Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 4.5 miles south of Allbrook. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too.
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Scantabout Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

What affects the quote in Allbrook
You’ll get a fixed price before any work starts. It takes into account:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The condition of the system
- How big the system is
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
What to send for a quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
