AHU cleaning in Booker
All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dirt on the impeller and housing gets spread around. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. If you’re dealing with coils clogged with dust and debris and dirty fans and fan housings, we can help, from dampers and louvres, drain trays and heating and cooling coils onwards.
In a smaller place like Booker, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Smaller systems still gather dust and need inspecting.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How we price AHU cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The condition of the system
- How easy every part is to reach
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Any previous report or certificate
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.
Why deal with it now?
Facilities teams are often asked for evidence that the ventilation is looked after. Our certificate and photo report give you clear evidence, for audits, tenants or your own peace of mind. When a site near Booker shuts unexpectedly, the people who rely on it notice at once.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Common questions in Booker
Can a school’s ventilation in Booker be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. There are about 12 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Booker. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Can you work in Booker outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Booker can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Do you clean the ductwork as well?
Yes, the ductwork, grilles and diffusers the unit serves. We will tell you after the survey whether the ducts need it.
Do you work in Booker?
Yes. Our technicians work in Booker, within the South East and London area we cover.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How far ahead should we book?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
How the visit works
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. For a site near Booker, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- With your site team, the unit is switched off and isolated, then the area around it protected.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Clear loose items from the work area

Different parts, different methods
Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
Rooftop and plant room units
Units on roofs and in plant rooms can be awkward to reach. Access is planned during the survey, before we quote.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
