About our AHU cleaning in Broad Green
We clean air handling units for buildings in Broad Green and across Greater London, working to TR19® Air, in offices, schools, hospitals, care homes and retail. Units are cleaned when the site can spare them, often evenings, overnight or weekends. Typical jobs include dust-coated heating and cooling coils and condensate trays that won’t empty, on filter sections, drain trays and heating and cooling coils.
In London, plant rooms are often in basements or on roofs reached through occupied floors, so ventilation cleaning in Broad Green is typically planned out of hours. Parking and loading are agreed with the building in advance.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Do not store bins or materials near the intake
When we have closed the unit up, it can be restarted with your site team. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to make sure it stays clear.
Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. Sections that are awkward to open are the ones that get skipped.
How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, 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 one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Loading bays, visitor permits and roof access are the first things we ask about for a site in Broad Green.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- We take after pictures and issue the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Do you need AHU cleaning in Broad Green?
It matters for two reasons: air quality, since the unit feeds occupied rooms, and performance, since dirt makes it strain. For the people using the building every day, that is the air they breathe for hours on end.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Plant that needs cleaning after a refit
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Drain trays holding standing water
- Plant that has been serviced but not cleaned
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Croydon University Hospital (about within half a mile north-west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.
Before you book anyone
- Proof of insurance
- Whether they recommend a next date
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
How we price AHU cleaning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The size of the system
- The times the site is available
- The condition of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The postcode and the type of business
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Broad Green questions
Can you clean school ventilation in Broad Green during the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 35 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Broad Green. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will fit the work in.
How do you handle parking and loading in Broad Green?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Broad Green makes the visit easier to plan. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit normally gets round them.
How much does AHU cleaning cost in Broad Green?
Size, condition, access and working hours all affect the cost. Call for a fixed quote, typically ready within one working day.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What do you do to 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.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we’ll say so.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Why act early in Broad Green
A slimy drain tray only gets worse. Left alone, it can overflow, leak into the plant area or ceiling below and spread smells through the system. Dealing with it early keeps the clean straightforward. For a site in Broad Green, fitting the work in overnight now is far easier than closing at short notice later.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

- Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
- Full insurance on every job

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Ventilation in Broad Green buildings
There are about 35 schools, colleges and universities, about 142 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 18 hotels and guest houses on the FSA’s food hygiene register in Broad Green and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. London plant rooms are often on roofs or in basements reached through occupied floors. About less than half a mile north-west of Broad Green is Croydon University Hospital, the nearest hospital. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too.
If you manage a school such as Elmwood Infant School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays. Workplaces around West Croydon station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts.
