What AHU cleaning can’t fix

  • Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
  • A system that is undersized for the building
  • Controls and BMS settings that run the unit

Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What the work covers

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

About our AHU cleaning in Flexford

All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dirt on the impeller and housing gets spread around. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, with the unit switched off and made safe first. If you are dealing with leaves and litter drawn into the unit and drain trays holding standing water, we can help, from dampers and louvres, drain trays and internal panels onwards.

Somewhere as small as Flexford, ducted ventilation is typically limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

How we price AHU cleaning

The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:

  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • The scale of the work
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

What to send for a quote

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks

What AHU cleaning looks like in Flexford

Food Standards Agency records list about 3 hospitals, care homes and childcare premises registered as food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Flexford. Classrooms, bedrooms and care spaces are often served by ducted air, and that ductwork collects dust over time. Flexford is about 31 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. For Flexford, the closest hospital is Guildford Hospital, roughly 2.6 miles east. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.

Guildford Hospital, about 2.6 miles east, is the nearest hospital to Flexford, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean. Workplaces around Wanborough station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts.

Flexford: your questions answered

Do you work in villages like Flexford?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you do AHU cleaning in Flexford?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Flexford is part of that. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with a few photos of the system.

Is a quote from photos possible?

Typically, yes. Send wide shots, close-ups of any access panels and anything that worries you, and we usually come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.

What does TR19 mean?

TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

How much notice should we give?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

What do you do to protect the area?

We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.

Can you clean without disrupting the building?

Yes, wherever it helps the building. Tell us when the unit can go off and we will work to that.

What the work involves, part by part

Fans and fan sections

Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe in agreement with the site.

Internal casing and panels

Damaged internal linings or loose panels can shed material into the air. We note any we find in the report.

Why deal with it now?

A slimy drain tray only gets worse. Left alone, it can overflow, leak into the plant area or ceiling below and spread smells through the system. Clearing it now is a much smaller job. If the system at a site near Flexford fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.

Why us?

  • A written report with photos after each visit
  • A fixed price before any work starts
  • Survey first, then a fixed quote
  • Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover

For landlords and multi-site operators

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

Whether it’s one building or many, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.

When to call us in Flexford

Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. If the drain tray outlet blocks or the tray doesn’t fall properly, water stands in it, and slime and smells soon follow.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
  • Dirty coils holding back the airflow
  • Dirty fans and fan housings
  • Drain trays holding standing water

For schools like Wyke Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

What your quote should include

  • Whether VAT is included
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • Proof of insurance

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

How the visit works

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. In a small place like Flexford, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.

  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. Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Let us know about parking and loading
