What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
AHU cleaning in Brookstreet
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: filters, coils, drain trays, fans and the internal panels. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and before and after photos in a report. Common call-outs are for air handling units with blocked filters and condensate trays that won’t empty, on heating and cooling coils, filter sections and dampers and louvres.
For a building in or near Brookstreet, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Brookstreet questions
Can you get to a site in Brookstreet?
Yes. Brookstreet is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can ventilation in schools around Brookstreet be cleaned out of term?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Brookstreet. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.
Do you give a certificate after the clean?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate plus before and after photos. They’re worth keeping with the plant records.
How much does AHU cleaning cost?
Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
Do you clean the ductwork as well?
Yes. Ventilation ductwork cleaning to TR19® Air is part of what we do. It’s often worth doing both at once, and we can quote for both.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Part by part
Filters
What’s on the filters is a good clue to what’s further in. We photograph them for the report.
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. They’re cleaned using methods that will not bend or flatten the fins.
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- The condition we find in the survey
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Parking and loading at the site
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Helping us quote
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The postcode and the type of business
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.

Getting a quote

For landlords and multi-site operators
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
