AHU cleaning for sites in Ellen's Green

Honest limits

We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
  • Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
  • A system that is undersized for the building

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on in Ellen's Green

  • Heating and cooling coils
  • Internal panels
  • Dampers and louvres
  • Filter sections
  • Supply and extract fans
  • Drain trays

How we handle AHU cleaning in Ellen's Green

If the units serving a building in Ellen's Green have only had filter changes for years, the coils, fan and casing can be carrying far more dirt than anyone has seen. A full clean deals with all of it. The work covers internal panels, supply and extract fans and dampers and louvres, and common reasons people get in touch are drain trays holding standing water and air handling units due a clean after building work.

For a building in or near Ellen's Green, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning

The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • Travel, parking and unloading
  • 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, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

To speed up the quote, send us:

  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What happens on the day

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Ellen's Green knowing what to expect.

  1. First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
  2. Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
  3. Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
  4. We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
  5. After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Related advice

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

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.

What the work involves, part by part

Internal casing and panels

Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards, and check every one is shut.

Fans and fan sections

The fan section is cleaned with the unit switched off and isolated with your site team.

Between visits

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
  • File each AHU report in the maintenance log
  • Don’t store bins or materials near the intake
  • Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air

We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, based on what we found. TR19® Air is risk-based, so the interval depends on the unit and how the building is used.

Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Ellen's Green

Is Ellen's Green within the area you cover?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Ellen's Green is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Is Ellen's Green in your area for AHU cleaning?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Ellen's Green is part of that. A fixed quote usually follows within one working day of the survey details.

Is there a report after cleaning?

Yes, both a certificate and a report with photos. The report also suggests when the unit should next be inspected.

What is TR19?

It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.

What about areas you cannot get to?

Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

Do you work evenings or weekends?

Yes. We time the work to fit the building’s hours. Healthcare and care settings are planned with staff.

How much notice should we give?

Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

Are you accredited?

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.

What happens if it’s left?

Dirty coils and fans make the unit strain to move the same air. The result is extra wear and a building that does not feel as comfortable, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. In a place like Ellen's Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.
