AHU cleaning in Grange Park
Every supply and extract system relies on the air handling unit at its centre: it draws air in, filters it, heats or cools it and pushes it round the ductwork. Anything that collects inside the unit can end up in the rooms it serves, which is why we clean the unit itself, not just the ducts. The work covers drain trays, heating and cooling coils and filter sections, and common reasons people get in touch are condensate trays that won’t empty and air handling units never cleaned inside.
London offices and flats often have ductwork added through successive refits, leaving sections that are hard to reach and seldom cleaned. In Grange Park, as elsewhere, cleaning starts with an inspection of what’s there.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the visit works
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the AHU cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Grange Park.
- First the unit is surveyed, from photos or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
Advice
Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
Restart the unit with your site team or maintenance contractor once we have finished. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to make sure it stays clear.
Check drain trays and condensate drains during routine maintenance. A drain that is cleared early never gets to the slime stage.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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 they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. For Grange Park, the closest hospital is St Michaels Hospital, roughly 1.2 miles north-east.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Grange Park
Cooling coils create condensation, and that water has to go somewhere. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and that’s where slime and odours start.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Dirty coils holding back the airflow
