Windsor and Maidenhead · Air handling unit cleaning
Furze Platt AHU cleaning
We cover Furze Platt for air handling unit cleaning. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures as standard.
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Air handling units with blocked filters
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
AHU cleaning in Furze Platt, done properly
An air handling unit is the heart of a building’s ventilation: it draws air in, filters it, heats or cools it and pushes it round the ductwork. Whatever builds up inside it travels with that air, so cleaning the unit matters as much as cleaning the ducts. We’re often asked to deal with plant that has been serviced but not cleaned and condensate trays that won’t empty, across filter sections, supply and extract fans and drain trays.
In a smaller place like Furze Platt, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Smaller systems still gather dust and need inspecting.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

FAQs for Furze Platt
Will you come out to Furze Platt?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Furze Platt included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you come to Furze Platt after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Furze Platt keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can quote for both.
What information do you need?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. Then call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes, a TR19® certificate and a photo report. The report also suggests when the unit should next be inspected.
How the job changes from site to site
Internal casing and panels
Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards, and check every one is shut.
Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. The filter section is cleaned so new or cleaned filters sit properly.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before booking.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

What happens on the day
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the AHU cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. For a place like Furze Platt, we load the van from the survey notes so the work can be done in one visit where possible.
- We start with a survey of the unit and a fixed quote for the work.
- With your site team, the unit is switched off and isolated, then the area around it protected.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
How to get a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Common problems we fix in Furze Platt
Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and slime and smells soon follow.
Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Odours coming through the supply air
- Condensate trays that won’t empty
Wherever a school like Furze Platt Senior School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
What your quote should include
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
Keeping the system healthy
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Do not ignore odours coming through the grilles
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
The report suggests a date for the next inspection or clean, based on what we found. TR19® Air is risk-based, so the interval depends on the unit and how the building is used.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.
