Surrey · Air handling unit cleaning
Air handling unit cleaning in Bramley, Surrey
AHU cleaning across Bramley and nearby, timed so the site keeps working and signed off in writing with pictures.
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
How it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Visits to a place like Bramley are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after pictures.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Advice
About our AHU cleaning in Bramley
Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, from a small ceiling-mounted unit to a large rooftop plant. We look at the unit first, from pictures or a site visit, and give you a fixed quote before any cleaning starts. We are often asked to deal with coils clogged with dust and debris and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris, on drain trays, internal panels and heating and cooling coils.
For a building near Bramley, the visit is planned around how it’s used, and the journey is planned ahead. The method doesn’t change: inspect first, clean, then record what was done.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Bramley: your questions answered
Do you work in villages like Bramley?
Yes, Bramley is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you work overnight in Bramley?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Bramley keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Can you fix a faulty AHU?
Motors, belts, controls and coils that need repair are a job for your maintenance contractor. We will flag anything we notice during the clean.
Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?
Yes. Ventilation ductwork cleaning to TR19® Air is part of what we do. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can quote for both.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
Typically the clean takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. The shutdown is planned to fit, out of hours if needed.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. They’re worth keeping with the plant records.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.

How we price AHU cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will typically have a quote within one working day.
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.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
Signs you need AHU cleaning in Bramley
An overdue filter loads up with dirt, which cuts the airflow and can let air slip round the filter. After that, the coils and fan collect what the filter should have caught.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
School buildings such as St Catherine's School are typically done in the holidays, so classrooms are not disturbed.
What to look for in a quote
- Proof of insurance
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether the quote shows VAT
What a clean will not put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what AHU cleaning will not do:
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on in Bramley

Part by part
Fans and fan sections
Dust on a fan impeller adds weight and wear. A clean fan runs more smoothly.
Internal casing and panels
Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards, and check every one is shut.
What staff can safely do
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. That’s our job.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
