AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in East Clandon

Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. We look at the unit first, from photos or a site visit, and give you a fixed quote before any cleaning starts. If you have dirty coils holding back the airflow and air handling units due a clean after building work, we can put it right, from filter sections, heating and cooling coils and dampers and louvres onwards.

In a village or hamlet like East Clandon, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and 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.

When to call us in East Clandon

Air handling units are usually tucked away on roofs, in plant rooms or above ceilings, so they’re easy to forget about. It’s easy for a long time to go by without anyone opening the panels.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Drain trays holding standing water
  • Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
  • Dirty filters cutting the airflow
  • Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs

Classrooms and halls at schools such as Clandon CofE Aided Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
  • What records you’ll receive afterwards
  • Whether the quote shows VAT
  • Whether they’re fully insured

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

What the work involves, part by part

Fans and fan sections

Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. A clean fan runs more smoothly.

Rooftop and plant room units

Rooftop units take the weather, and intakes can collect leaves and debris. We clean the intake and first stage of filters along with the rest.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

What we do, step by step

At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Visits to a village like East Clandon are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  1. The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
  2. We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
  3. Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
  4. We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
  5. We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Ask for a quote

Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Questions from East Clandon

Do you do school ventilation cleaning in East Clandon in the summer holidays?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 2 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of East Clandon. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.

Can you get to a site in East Clandon?

Yes, East Clandon is part of our area, however small the site. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

Is there a report after cleaning?

Yes. You receive a certificate and a report showing each section before and after, including anything we think needs attention.

Can you price the work without visiting?

Yes, where the photos show enough. If not, a site survey comes first, and the quote follows that.

How much does AHU cleaning cost?

It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us about the site and its opening hours.

Are you insured?

Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.

Which accreditations do you hold?

We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Book the next check in line with the report
  • Make sure condensate is draining away
  • Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
  • File each AHU report in the maintenance log

Restart the unit with your site team or maintenance contractor once we’ve finished. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to confirm water is draining away.

Make the drain tray part of every maintenance visit. A drain that’s cleared early never gets to the slime stage.
