AHU cleaning in Amport
A cooling coil drips condensate into a tray that should drain away. When the drain blocks, water sits there and the tray turns slimy, in the airstream that feeds the building. Clearing and cleaning the tray is central to every AHU clean. Typical jobs include dirty coils holding back the airflow and debris and leaves in the fresh air intake, on drain trays, filter sections and heating and cooling coils.
Work in a small place like Amport starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The size of the system
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Honest limits
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what AHU cleaning will not do:
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
- A system that’s undersized for the building
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Internal panels
- Dampers and louvres
- Supply and extract fans
- Drain trays
- Heating and cooling coils
- Filter sections
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Questions from Amport
Do you work in villages like Amport?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Amport included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you work overnight in Amport?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Amport doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What accreditations do you have?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.
What happens to the waste?
We contain it and take it with us. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Do you repair air handling units?
The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with pictures where it helps.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes, both a certificate and a report with photos. It includes a recommended date for the next check.
How the job changes from site to site
Fans and fan sections
The fan section is cleaned with the unit switched off and isolated with your site team.
Rooftop and plant room units
Units on roofs and in plant rooms can be awkward to reach. We plan safe access as part of the survey, before we quote.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Amport
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Amport and across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
What we’re called out for in Amport
Filters catch most of the dust, but not all of it. The fine dust that passes the filters lands on the coils, the fan and the internal panels, a little more each month.
What we are most often called out for:
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Dust built up on fan impellers
Hospitals such as Andover War Memorial Hospital (about 3.7 miles east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Amport are no different.
Questions to ask before booking
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether they recommend a next date
- What hours they’ll be on site
- What insurance they carry
How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Amport and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after pictures.
How to prepare
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
