Questions from Beltinge

Do you offer AHU cleaning in Beltinge?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Beltinge is part of that. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with a few photos of the system.

Do you work at weekends in Beltinge?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Beltinge keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

How far ahead should we book?

The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes normally come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.

Do you clean the ductwork as well?

Yes, supply and extract ducts, grilles and diffusers. We’ll tell you after the survey whether the ducts need it.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from photos and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

How do you protect the area?

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before we start, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.

Can you price the work without visiting?

Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.

AHU cleaning in Beltinge

An air handling unit is the heart of a building’s ventilation: air is pulled in, filtered, conditioned and sent out through the ducts. Anything that collects inside the unit can end up in the rooms it serves, so cleaning the unit matters as much as cleaning the ducts. If you are dealing with coils clogged with dust and debris and rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs, we can help, from drain trays, heating and cooling coils and internal panels onwards.

Visits to a place like Beltinge are fitted around opening hours. The method does not change: inspect first, clean, then record what was done.

We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

What staff can safely do

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

What a clean will not put right

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
  • Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
  • Controls and BMS settings that run the unit

Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where we work

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

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Beltinge

The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:

  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • The size of the system
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.

Aftercare tips

Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • Keep filter changes on time and recorded
  • Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records
  • Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
  • Do not ignore odours coming through the grilles

You receive a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. They belong in the plant or maintenance log.

Change or clean filters on time. Overloaded filters let more dirt through to the coils and fan.

What we do, step by step

The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Beltinge, so let us know how to reach it.

  1. We survey the unit from photos or on site and agree what’s included.
  2. With your site team, the unit is switched off and isolated, then the area around it protected.
  3. Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
  4. We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
  5. A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.

Preparing for the visit

  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Find the previous report, if there is one

Ask for a quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.

  • Air handling units due a clean after building work
  • Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
