How we handle AHU cleaning in Bagshot
Our AHU cleans for sites in Bagshot cover the parts that collect dirt: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. The work covers drain trays, internal panels and dampers and louvres, and common reasons people get in touch are air handling units with blocked filters and condensate trays that won’t empty.
Smaller buildings around Bagshot often keep their ventilation units in a roof void or plant cupboard, out of sight and easy to overlook. Filters, coils and drain trays need attention whatever the size of the unit.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What the work involves, part by part
Drain trays
Standing water in a tray sits right where the air passes. We clean it and note if the slope or the drain needs attention.
Fans and fan sections
Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe with your site team.
What AHU cleaning cannot fix
Not every problem is solved by AHU cleaning, and we will tell you before any work starts. It does not solve:
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think.
Where we work
- Filter sections
- Heating and cooling coils
- Internal panels
- Supply and extract fans
- Dampers and louvres
- Drain trays
Why deal with it now?
A light clean now is simpler than a heavy one later. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, particularly where damp has made it stick. Light use slows the build-up but does not stop it.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Bagshot
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Questions from Bagshot
Do you clean school ventilation in Bagshot in the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Bagshot, the Food Standards Agency lists about 14 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can you come to Bagshot after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or email us, mention when the site is quiet.
What do you clean inside the unit?
Filters, coils, drain trays, the fan and the internal surfaces are all covered. Filters are cleaned or changed as agreed in the quote.
Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?
Yes, for the time we’re working on it. Out-of-hours work is available so the building isn’t left without ventilation when it’s busy.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Do you give a certificate after the clean?
Yes. A TR19® certificate and photo report are sent after the clean, including anything we think needs attention.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Bagshot buildings and their air
Food Standards Agency records list about 14 schools, colleges and universities and about 7 care, childcare and hospital premises registered as food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Bagshot. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. About 3.5 miles south-west of Bagshot is Frimley Park Hospital, the nearest hospital. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients. Bagshot is about 27 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.
