AHU cleaning across Burkham

AHU cleaning in Burkham

An AHU clean is a thorough examination and treatment of the unit. Every section is opened, cleaned and photographed, so the report shows exactly what was done. Common call-outs are for plant that needs cleaning after a refit and leaves and litter drawn into the unit, on supply and extract fans, dampers and louvres and drain trays.

In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.

It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What a clean won’t put right

AHU cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:

  • Ventilation that was badly designed in the first place
  • Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
  • Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean

If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Where we work

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

What your team can do, and what needs us

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, next to our reports.

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 don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

How the job changes from site to site

Heating and cooling coils

Heating and cooling coils have tightly packed fins that trap fine dust. We clean them with care so the fins aren’t damaged.

Drain trays

Condensate from the coil drips into a tray beneath it. We clear standing water, clean out slime and check the outlet is draining.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Burkham

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.

Common reasons sites call us are:

  • Condensate trays that will not empty
  • Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
  • Dirty filters cutting the airflow
  • Dust-coated heating and cooling coils

For buildings in and around Burkham, TR19® Air cleaning starts with an inspection.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the figure could change on the day
  • What hours they’ll be on site
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify

Our hiring checklist

Burkham questions

Can the work in Burkham be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Do you cover smaller places like Burkham?

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

What accreditations do you have?

Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.

Is a quote from pictures possible?

Yes, if we can see what we need. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.

Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?

Yes. Ventilation ductwork cleaning to TR19® Air is part of what we do. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can survey both on the same visit.

What should I send you?

Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. If we need more, we will ask.

How much does AHU cleaning cost in Burkham?

Every site is different, so each gets its own fixed quote. For a quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, opening hours and a few photos.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.

How we price AHU cleaning

The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:

  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • The condition of the system

We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll talk you through it.

What we need to know

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Any previous report or certificate

Need a price for AHU cleaning? Please call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with a few details about the site. We will talk you through the work and send you a fixed quote before you commit to anything.

The process

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Burkham.

  1. The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
  2. The area is protected and the unit made safe.
  3. Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.

Before we arrive

  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Getting a quote

Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Advice

What happens if it’s left?

A light clean now is simpler than a heavy one later. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, particularly where damp has made it stick. Planning a trip to Burkham ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

What you get with us

  • Every job surveyed first
  • CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
  • We are fully insured
  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
