About our AHU cleaning in Bouldnor

Our AHU cleaning covers sites in Bouldnor and the rest of the Isle of Wight, 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. If you’re dealing with blocked condensate drains and slimy trays and air handling units never cleaned inside, we can put it right, from heating and cooling coils, internal panels and filter sections onwards.

Somewhere as small as Bouldnor, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.

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 are fully insured.

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Bouldnor run smoothly.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Clear the space around the work

Related advice

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

FAQs for Bouldnor

Can the work in Bouldnor be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.

Do you cover smaller places like Bouldnor?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

What information do you need?

Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

What do you do to protect the area?

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
  • Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
  • Book the next check in line with the report
  • File each AHU report in the maintenance log

Keep filter changes on schedule between cleans, because good filters protect everything downstream. Record each change in the maintenance log.

Keep the unit’s doors and panels in working order. Sections that are awkward to open are the ones that get skipped.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Bouldnor

An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and the finer material travels on.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Dirty coils holding back the airflow
  • Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
  • Units that have only ever had filter changes
  • Filters that are clogged or overdue

Lymington New Forest Hospital, about 5.2 miles north-west, is the nearest hospital to Bouldnor, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean.

Why deal with it now?

Dirt left in an air handling unit does not stay in the unit. It moves on into the ductwork and out into the rooms, so cleaning the ducts without the unit only goes so far. It’s simpler to plan the work at Bouldnor now than to arrange it in a hurry later.

Different parts, different methods

Fans and fan sections

Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. A clean fan runs more smoothly.

Drain trays

Standing water in a tray sits right where the air passes. We clean it and report anything about the tray or drain that needs fixing.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning

The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:

  • The scale of the work
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • The number of sites or systems
  • Travel, parking and unloading
