AHU cleaning in Broughton
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: filters, coils, drain trays, fans and the internal panels. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. Typical jobs include plant that needs cleaning after a refit and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris, on heating and cooling coils, filter sections and drain trays.
For a building in or near Broughton, 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.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Broughton: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Broughton?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Broughton included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you clean school ventilation in Broughton during the holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Around Broughton, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
How long will the unit be out of action?
Typically the clean takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. We plan the shutdown around that, out of hours if needed.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. It’s often worth doing both at once, and we can survey both on the same visit.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, then a fixed quote.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
How we price AHU cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How big the system is
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Common problems we fix in Broughton
Whatever surrounds a building in Broughton, the air drawn into its AHU carries dust, pollen and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and the finer material travels on.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
- Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
Healthcare buildings such as Horton General Hospital, about 2.2 miles east, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Broughton, yours matters too.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether they recommend a next date
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
- Do not store bins or materials near the intake
If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. Cleaning the unit and ducts together gives the best result, and we can quote for both.
Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. If a section is hard to get into, it tends not to get checked.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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 records stay tidy.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
What a clean will not put right
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
- A system that is undersized for the building
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Where we work
- Internal panels
- Heating and cooling coils
- Dampers and louvres
- Supply and extract fans
- Drain trays
- Filter sections
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
What else we do in Broughton
Ventilation in Broughton buildings
Going by the FSA’s register, there are about 3 schools, colleges and universities serving food within about 1.5 miles of central Broughton. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. The nearest hospital to Broughton is Horton General Hospital, about 2.2 miles east. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Bishop Carpenter Church of England Aided Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Broughton.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- We take after pictures and issue the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before any work starts.
