We clean air handling units for buildings in Cow Roast and across Hertfordshire, working to TR19® Air, in offices, schools, hospitals, care homes and retail. The work is timed around when the system can be switched off, including evenings, nights and weekends. If you are dealing with drain trays holding standing water and units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover, we can put it right, from dampers and louvres, heating and cooling coils and drain trays onwards.
For a building in or near Cow Roast, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Cow Roast
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Parking and loading at the site
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- How big the system is
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The site address and the type of premises
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Cow Roast
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
How the job changes from site to site
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. The filter section is cleaned so new or cleaned filters sit properly.
Heating and cooling coils
Cooling coils stay damp in use, so dirt on them can turn sticky. We clean the coil and the tray beneath it together.
Why act early in Cow Roast
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. With notice, the visit to Cow Roast can be fitted around your bookings and events.
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Cow Roast run smoothly.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
