AHU cleaning in Cufaude, done properly
Drain trays under cooling coils are meant to empty. 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 are dealing with air handling units with blocked filters and condensate trays that won’t empty, we can help.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Cufaude
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, 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.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Part by part
Drain trays
The drain tray collects water from the cooling coil. Standing water and slime are removed and the outlet is checked.
Filters
Filters are the first line of defence in the unit. We check them, and clean or change them as agreed in the quote, and the housing around them is cleaned too.

Leave it or put it right?
Facilities teams are often asked for evidence that the ventilation is looked after. A TR19® certificate and photo report give you that, for audits, tenants or your own peace of mind. In a small place like Cufaude, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Why us?
- Fixed quotes from a survey or photos
- Every job surveyed first
- Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
- One number for every site across the South East and London
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Make sure condensate is draining away
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Don’t store bins or materials near the intake
The report shows each section of the unit before and after, along with anything we couldn’t reach. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.
Do not let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.

The process
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Cufaude.
- We survey the unit from photos or on site and agree what’s included.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- 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
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Getting a quote

When to call us in Cufaude
Filters that aren’t changed or cleaned on time clog up, cutting airflow and sometimes letting dirty air bypass them altogether. After that, the coils and fan collect what the filter should have caught.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Air handling units with blocked filters
Hospitals such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital (about 2.9 miles south-west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Cufaude are no different.
