About our AHU cleaning in Ascott-under-Wychwood

A cooling coil drips condensate into a tray that should drain away. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, in the airstream that feeds the building. Clearing and cleaning the tray is central to every AHU clean. We’re often asked to deal with filters that are clogged or overdue and dirty coils holding back the airflow, across drain trays, internal panels and heating and cooling coils.

In a village or hamlet like Ascott-under-Wychwood, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Honest limits

We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:

  • A system that is undersized for the building
  • Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
  • The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately

If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

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

How it works

Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the AHU cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Ascott-under-Wychwood.

  1. The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
  2. We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
  3. Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

How the job changes from site to site

Filters

What’s on the filters is a good clue to what’s further in. They’re photographed before and after for your records.

Rooftop and plant room units

Rooftop units take the weather, and intakes can collect leaves and debris. The intake section gets particular attention.

Why act early in Ascott-under-Wychwood

When the unit is clean, less dirt reaches the ducts, so the ducts and grilles stay cleaner between cleans. That makes the next inspection of a building in Ascott-under-Wychwood simpler. With notice, the visit to Ascott-under-Wychwood can be fitted around your bookings and events.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

Aftercare tips

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Report musty smells from the vents right away
  • Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
  • Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
  • Clear leaves and litter away from the intake

If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. Cleaning the unit and ducts together gives the best result, and we can quote for both.

Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air, rather than waiting for a problem.
