About our AHU cleaning in Appledore Heath
If the units serving a building in Appledore Heath have only had filter changes for years, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. The work covers supply and extract fans, filter sections and drain trays, and people most often call us about dust-coated heating and cooling coils and air handling units never cleaned inside.
Somewhere as small as Appledore Heath, ducted ventilation is typically limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Why deal with it now?
Dirt left in an air handling unit does not stay in the unit. It moves on into the ductwork and out into the rooms, which is why the unit and the ducts are best cleaned together. A fault that closes a site in a village like Appledore Heath affects everyone who depends on it.

How it works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the AHU cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Appledore Heath.
- First the unit is surveyed, from pictures or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
Getting a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
