AHU cleaning across Bromley Common

AHU cleaning in Bromley Common, done properly

Heating and cooling coils trap dust that gets past the filters. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. Coils are cleaned carefully, with methods chosen so the fins are not flattened. If you have dust-coated heating and cooling coils and fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years, we can help, from drain trays, filter sections and dampers and louvres onwards.

London buildings tend to keep their plant on the roof or below ground, so ventilation cleaning in Bromley Common is usually planned out of hours. Parking and loading are agreed with the building in advance.

For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Bromley Common

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • What state the system is in
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule

What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Asking for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Food Standards Agency records list about 10 schools, colleges and universities, about 28 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises and about 3 hotels and B&Bs registered as food businesses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Bromley Common. Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. Many London buildings have had their ductwork altered through several fit-outs, so an inspection comes first.

If you manage a school such as Trinity Church of England Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Why deal with it now?

Tenants, auditors and owners may want proof that the air handling plant is kept clean. Our certificate and photo report give you clear evidence, for audits, tenants or your own peace of mind. It’s better booked as a planned job in Bromley Common than handled as an emergency.

What staff can safely do

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.

When it’s something else

AHU cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It will not put right:

  • Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
  • The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
  • Controls and BMS settings that run the unit

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Drain trays
  • Heating and cooling coils
  • Supply and extract fans
  • Internal panels
  • Filter sections
  • Dampers and louvres

Looking after it afterwards

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:

  • File each AHU report in the maintenance log
  • Make sure condensate is draining away
  • Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
  • Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear

Photos in the report cover the filters, coils, drain tray, fan and casing, along with anything we couldn’t reach. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.

Change or clean filters on time. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Bromley Common

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
