AHU cleaning near Burchett's Green

AHU cleaning in Burchett's Green, done properly

If the units serving a building in Burchett's Green have only had filter changes for years, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full clean deals with all of it. We’re often asked to deal with debris and leaves in the fresh air intake and plant that needs cleaning after a refit, across dampers and louvres, filter sections and heating and cooling coils.

Work in a small place like Burchett's Green starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What affects the quote in Burchett's Green

Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:

  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • How big the system is
  • What state the system is in

One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before any work starts.

What we need to know

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Your last certificate, test record or report

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Honest limits

We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:

  • Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
  • Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
  • Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

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

Multi-site and managed buildings

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Burchett's Green and across Windsor and Maidenhead. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

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.

What happens on the day

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the AHU cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report.

  1. We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
  2. We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
  3. We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
  4. The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
  5. After photos are taken and the certificate issued.

Advice

Burchett's Green: your questions answered

Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Burchett's Green in the summer holidays?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Food Standards Agency records list about 4 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Burchett's Green. You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.

Do you cover smaller places like Burchett's Green?

Yes, Burchett's Green is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Do you work evenings or weekends?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and weekends, so offices, schools and shops can carry on.

How often should an air handling unit be cleaned?

Under TR19® Air, cleaning is led by inspection and risk rather than a set calendar. Each report suggests when the unit should next be looked at.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.

What does AHU cleaning cost?

The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote, usually ready within one working day.

Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?

Yes. The fan must be stopped and the unit isolated, and we time the work to suit the site.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:

  • Report water on the plant room floor
  • Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
  • Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
  • File each AHU report in the maintenance log

The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can quote for both.

Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

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.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

Do you need AHU cleaning in Burchett's Green?

Filters that are not changed or cleaned on time clog up, cutting airflow and sometimes letting dirty air bypass them altogether. After that, the coils and fan collect what the filter should have caught.

Common reasons sites call us are:

  • Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
  • Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
  • Air handling units with blocked filters
  • Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover

Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like St Mark's Hospital (about 2 miles east) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.
