AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Duddleswell
We clean air handling units for buildings in Duddleswell and across East Sussex, 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. The work covers filter sections, supply and extract fans and dampers and louvres, and common reasons people get in touch are blocked condensate drains and slimy trays and air handling units with blocked filters.
Somewhere as small as Duddleswell, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
Once the clean is done, we send a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after photos. Keep both with the building’s maintenance records.
Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air instead of leaving it to guesswork.
What AHU cleaning cannot fix
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
- Building management system faults
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What the work covers
- Internal panels
- Drain trays
- Dampers and louvres
- Heating and cooling coils
- Supply and extract fans
- Filter sections
Why deal with it now?
When the unit is clean, less dirt reaches the ducts, so the whole system stays cleaner for longer. That makes the next inspection of a building in Duddleswell simpler. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Duddleswell rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will talk you through it.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Duddleswell
Cooling coils create condensation, and that water has to go somewhere. If the drain tray outlet blocks or the tray doesn’t fall properly, water stands in it, and slime and smells soon follow.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Dirty coils holding back the airflow
- Drain trays holding standing water
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
Ventilation work in and around Duddleswell is risk-based: inspect, then clean what needs it.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
