AHU Cleaning across Hampshire

About AHU cleaning in Hampshire

Our AHU cleaning covers sites across Hampshire, in buildings such as offices, schools, healthcare sites and shops. The work is timed around when the system can be switched off, including evenings, nights and weekends. The work covers heating and cooling coils, internal panels and filter sections, and the jobs we see most are dirty fans and fan housings and drain trays holding standing water.

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 photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased.

  1. We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
  2. The area is protected and the unit made safe.
  3. Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.

AHU cleaning across Hampshire: local notes

Across Hampshire, from Basingstoke, Winchester and Gosport outwards, ventilation systems serve offices, schools, surgeries, hotels and care homes. The work starts with an inspection, and cleaning follows where it’s needed.

Hampshire is within the area we cover, which takes in London and the South East. Every job is surveyed first and quoted at a fixed price. Along the coast in Hampshire, many hotels, pubs and cafés are at their busiest in the summer, so it pays to book work around the busy season.

Basingstoke: Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital (about 1.1 miles north) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. Workplaces around Basingstoke station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts.

Part by part

Internal casing and panels

We open each section through its doors and close them securely when we’re done before the unit is handed back.

Fans and fan sections

Every bit of air passes the fan, so a dirty fan sends dirt downstream. The impeller, its housing and the fan chamber are cleaned.

Common problems we fix in Hampshire

An overdue filter loads up with dirt, which cuts the airflow and can let air slip round the filter. Then the rest of the unit takes the load.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • Filters that are clogged or overdue
  • Dust built up on fan impellers
  • Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
  • Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays

What affects the quote in Hampshire

There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:

  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Travel, parking and unloading

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 to send for a quote

What to send for a quote:

  • A few general shots of the system
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

To get a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos 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 will normally have a quote within one working day.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

When it’s something else

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what AHU cleaning will not do:

  • Building management system faults
  • Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
  • Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing

Questions from Hampshire

How much does AHU cleaning cost in Hampshire?

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.

Will you repair the fan or motor?

The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with the details in the report.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.

How far ahead should we book?

Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

Do you clean the ductwork as well?

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.

What does TR19 mean?

It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
