AHU cleaning in Burwash, done properly
Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. We clean coils with methods suited to their condition, taking care not to damage the fins. Common call-outs are for air handling units due a clean after building work and dust built up on fan impellers, on supply and extract fans, heating and cooling coils and internal panels.
Somewhere as small as Burwash, ducted ventilation is normally 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.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
For landlords and multi-site operators
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

Burwash questions
Is Burwash within the area you cover?
Yes. Burwash is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Is Burwash in your area for AHU cleaning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Burwash is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we’ll arrange a survey.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
What should I send you?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and a fixed quote typically follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We typically quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Can you clean without disrupting the building?
Yes, wherever it helps the building. We plan the shutdown window with you.
Why deal with it now?
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Burwash can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The condition of the system
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- A single visit or a regular plan
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The site address and the type of premises
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will normally have a quote within one working day.
How the visit works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the AHU cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. The timing of a visit to Burwash is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- We take after pictures and issue the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
How to get a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
Photos in the report cover the filters, coils, drain tray, fan and casing, along with anything we couldn’t reach. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.
Make the drain tray part of every maintenance visit. A drain that’s cleared early never gets to the slime stage.

Hospitals such as Ticehurst House Hospital (about 3.5 miles north) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Burwash are no different. Wherever a school like Burwash CofE School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.

What the work involves, part by part
Internal casing and panels
Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards before the unit is handed back.
Heating and cooling coils
Because cooling coils run wet, the dirt on them tends to cling. The coil and its drain tray are cleaned as one job.
