AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Broughton
A cooling coil drips condensate into a tray that should drain away. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, in the airstream that feeds the building. Clearing and cleaning the tray is central to every AHU clean. If you have odours coming through the supply air and plant that needs cleaning after a refit, we can put it right, from heating and cooling coils, filter sections and internal panels onwards.
Smaller buildings around Broughton often keep their ventilation units in a roof void or plant cupboard, out of sight and easy to overlook. Filters, coils and drain trays need attention whatever the size of the unit.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Broughton: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Broughton?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Broughton is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can ventilation in schools around Broughton be cleaned out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. There are about 10 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Broughton. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How often do AHUs need cleaning?
That’s set by inspection, in line with TR19® Air. Units in heavy use or in sensitive buildings may need attention more often.
How much does AHU cleaning cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before any work starts.
Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?
Yes, supply and extract ducts, grilles and diffusers. We will tell you after the survey whether the ducts need it.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Typically, yes. Send a few wide pictures plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we normally come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.

What else we do in Broughton
How we price AHU cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
What happens if it’s left?
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. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

How the job changes from site to site
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. We note any we find in the report.
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. The filter section is cleaned so new or cleaned filters sit properly.
Multi-site and managed buildings
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.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
What happens on the day
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Evenings, weekends or a closed day all work for a site in a place like Broughton.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Clear the space around the work
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
Getting a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Broughton
No filter stops everything. The fine dust that passes the filters lands on the coils, the fan and the internal panels, a little more each month.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Plant that has been serviced but not cleaned
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Plant that needs cleaning after a refit
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Tindal Centre (about 1.4 miles west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.
