About our AHU cleaning in Causeway End
Heating and cooling coils trap dust that gets past the filters. Dirt on the fins holds back air and makes the unit work harder to do the same job. Coils are cleaned carefully, with methods chosen so the fins are not flattened. If you have air handling units with blocked filters and rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs, we can help.
Work in a small place like Causeway End starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Causeway End.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Related advice
Different parts, different methods
Internal casing and panels
Dust settles on every internal surface of the unit. We clean each section from intake to discharge.
Heating and cooling coils
Cooling coils stay damp in use, so dirt on them can turn sticky. The coil and its drain tray are cleaned as one job.
Signs you need AHU cleaning in Causeway End
Whatever surrounds a building in Causeway End, 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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Odours coming through the supply air
- Dirty coils holding back the airflow
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Dust built up on fan impellers
School buildings such as Felsted Primary School are usually done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether they’re fully insured
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The size of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- The postcode and the type of business
- A few general shots of the system
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Why it’s worth doing now in Causeway End
Cleaning a unit while it only has light dust is quick. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, particularly where damp has made it stick. In a small place like Causeway End, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.
