AHU cleaning in Eyhorne Street
No two plant rooms are the same, from a small ceiling-mounted unit to a large rooftop plant. We look at the unit first, from photos or a site visit, and give you a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. The work covers dampers and louvres, drain trays and internal panels, and the jobs we see most are air handling units with blocked filters and drain trays holding standing water.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Different parts, different methods
Internal casing and panels
Dust settles on every internal surface of the unit. Each section is cleaned from the intake through to the outlet.
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. We clean them with care so the fins aren’t damaged.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The scale of the work
- The number of sites or systems
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
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 are not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Asking for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Questions from Eyhorne Street
Can you clean school ventilation in Eyhorne Street during the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Eyhorne Street. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Can the work in Eyhorne Street be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Eyhorne Street does not have to lose a day’s trading. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
What do you clean inside the unit?
Every section that collects dirt: filters, coils, tray, fan and panels. The survey confirms what’s in your unit before we quote.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.
How do you protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate plus before and after photos. Keep them in the maintenance log.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How it works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. In a small place like Eyhorne Street, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Clear the space around the work
- Find the previous report, if there is one
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
When it’s something else
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
- Faulty motors, drives or bearings
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on in Eyhorne Street
- Supply and extract fans
- Heating and cooling coils
- Drain trays
- Dampers and louvres
- Internal panels
- Filter sections
What happens if it’s left?
Dirt left in an air handling unit does not stay in the unit. It’s carried through the ductwork and out of the grilles, which is why the unit and the ducts are best cleaned together. It’s simpler to plan the work at Eyhorne Street now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.

What staff can safely do
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, which is where we come in.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Do you need AHU cleaning in Eyhorne Street?
Dirt in an AHU matters in two ways: air quality, since the unit feeds occupied rooms, and performance, since dirt makes it strain. For anyone working, learning or staying in a building in Eyhorne Street, that is air they breathe for hours at a time.
Clients usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
