How we handle AHU cleaning in Harringay
Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, from a small ceiling-mounted unit to a large rooftop plant. Every job starts with a survey, from photos or on site, followed by a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. If you have coils clogged with dust and debris and dirty filters cutting the airflow, we can put it right, from internal panels, supply and extract fans and drain trays onwards.
London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. In a building in Harringay, dust and debris build up in the units and ductwork over time, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Why act early in Harringay
When the unit is clean, less dirt reaches the ducts, so the whole system stays cleaner for longer. It also means the next inspection has less to find. Planning ahead in Harringay lets you pick a quiet night rather than lose a busy one.

The process
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Harringay.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Harringay buildings and their air
Food Standards Agency data includes about 40 schools, colleges and universities, about 53 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 3 hotels and guest houses within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Harringay. Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. City of London Maternity Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 1.3 miles south-west of Harringay. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes. Many London buildings have had their ductwork altered through several fit-outs, so an inspection comes first.
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Harringay, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like City of London Maternity Hospital (about 1.3 miles south-west). If you manage shops or offices close to Harringay Green Lanes station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning.

What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Common problems we fix in Harringay
Dirt in an AHU matters in two ways: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For the people using the building every day, that’s the air they breathe for hours on end.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
- Plant that has been serviced but not cleaned
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
- Dust built up on fan impellers
If you manage a school such as South Harringay Infant School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.
What to look for in a quote
- What hours they’ll be on site
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the quote shows VAT
Multi-site and managed buildings
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
Common questions in Harringay
Do you work overnight in Harringay?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.
Is parking a problem for work in Harringay?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Working overnight, as we often do in London, usually makes it simpler.
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 if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
What’s included in an AHU clean?
Filters, coils, drain trays, the fan and the internal surfaces are all covered. Filters are cleaned or changed as agreed in the quote.
What happens to the waste?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
