AHU cleaning in Brentford, done properly
Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. Every job starts with a survey, from pictures or on site, followed by a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. If you have plant that needs cleaning after a refit and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris, we can help, from internal panels, supply and extract fans and heating and cooling coils onwards.
London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. For a building in Brentford, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. West Middlesex University Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 1.4 miles south-west of Brentford.

Brentford questions
Does London parking affect a job in Brentford?
Parking and loading in London need planning, so tell us about bays, permits and building rules when you book. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
Do you work overnight in Brentford?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Brentford needn’t be disturbed. Just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we will survey first.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
The work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Bigger units can be phased, and you can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email to plan it.
Which parts of an air handling unit do you clean?
Every section that collects dirt: filters, coils, tray, fan and panels. We confirm the scope after looking at the unit.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
We clean the unit and flag faults rather than repair them, with the details in the report.
Will we get paperwork for the AHU clean?
Yes. A TR19® certificate and photo report are sent after the clean, with any faults we noticed.
What affects the quote in Brentford
Your quote is based on your site. We consider:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Travel, parking and unloading
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.
What we need to know
We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
How the job changes from site to site
Rooftop and plant room units
Units outside are exposed to weather and windblown debris. We clean the intake and first stage of filters along with the rest.
Fans and fan sections
Every bit of air passes the fan, so a dirty fan sends dirt downstream. We clean the impeller, housing and surrounding section.
What we are called out for in Brentford
It matters for two reasons: air quality, since the unit feeds occupied rooms, and performance, since dirt makes it strain. For anyone working, learning or staying in a building in Brentford, that is air they breathe for hours at a time.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Drain trays holding standing water
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
For schools like St Paul's CofE Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
Before booking anyone
- What records you will receive afterwards
- What insurance they carry
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- Whether VAT is included
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
Once the clean is done, we send a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after photos. Keep both with the building’s maintenance records.
Keep the area around the intake clear. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.
