AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Clapper Hill
A cooling coil drips condensate into a tray that should drain away. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, in the airstream that feeds the building. Clearing and cleaning the tray is central to every AHU clean. If you have dust-coated heating and cooling coils and filters that are clogged or overdue, we can help.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
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 and sits alongside the report.

What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. For a village or hamlet like Clapper Hill, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Clear the space around the work
Get a fixed quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
Do you need AHU cleaning in Clapper Hill?
An overdue filter loads up with dirt, which cuts the airflow and can let air slip round the filter. Then the rest of the unit takes the load.
Look out for any of the following:
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Air handling units with blocked filters
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Benenden Hospital (about 1.1 miles south-west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Clapper Hill
Is AHU cleaning available in Clapper Hill?
Yes, Clapper Hill is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with a few details of the site.
Can you get to a site in Clapper Hill?
Yes, Clapper Hill is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
What’s 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 isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
What affects the quote in Clapper Hill
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- What state the system is in
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
How the job changes from site to site
Fans and fan sections
Every bit of air passes the fan, so a dirty fan sends dirt downstream. We clean the impeller, housing and surrounding section.
Heating and cooling coils
A dirty coil holds back the air and makes heating and cooling less effective. A clean gets air moving through the coil properly again.
