AHU cleaning in Daniel's Water
All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, with the unit switched off and made safe first. Typical jobs include air handling units due a clean after building work and dirty coils holding back the airflow, across internal panels, drain trays and supply and extract fans.
Work in a small place like Daniel's Water starts with agreeing access and timings.
A written report with photos follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What affects the quote in Daniel's Water
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The condition of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Any permits to work or inductions
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any previous report or certificate
- Problems your staff have spotted
- A few general shots of the system

How the visit works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and the area around the work is covered and protected. On site, it takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Daniel's Water run smoothly.
- First the unit is surveyed, from pictures or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after pictures.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
How to get a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. Cleaning the unit and ducts together gives the best result, and we can quote for both.
Change or clean filters on time. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.

What else we do in Daniel's Water
What the work involves, part by part
Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
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.
Common problems we fix in Daniel's Water
An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and the finer material travels on.
Look out for any of the following:
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
- Drain trays holding standing water
Healthcare buildings such as William Harvey Hospital, about 4.9 miles east, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Daniel's Water, yours matters too.
