AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Burlings
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and before and after pictures in a report. If you have dust-coated heating and cooling coils and filters that are clogged or overdue, we can put it right, from drain trays, supply and extract fans and dampers and louvres onwards.
Somewhere as small as Burlings, ducted ventilation is usually limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Part by part
Rooftop and plant room units
Smaller units in ceiling voids are part of the work as well. The space underneath is protected with sheeting first.
Internal casing and panels
Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards, and check every one is shut.
What affects the quote in Burlings
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition we find in the survey
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.

Do you work overnight in Burlings?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Burlings needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Which accreditations do you hold?

What happens to the waste?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
AHU cleaning is what we offer here, not mechanical repairs. Any faults we notice are recorded so your maintenance contractor can deal with it.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
What a clean will not put right
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what AHU cleaning won’t do:
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on in Burlings
- Supply and extract fans

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Burlings
Most units live out of sight on roofs, in plant rooms or in ceiling voids and are rarely seen by anyone but maintenance staff. It’s easy for a long time to go by without anyone opening the panels.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
For schools like Charles Darwin School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Burlings can be planned properly.
- First the unit is surveyed, from photos or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after photos.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
