FAQs for Headley
Do you work at weekends in Headley?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Is Headley in your area for AHU cleaning?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Headley is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
What information do you need?
Where the site is, what it is and when it’s open, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
What do you do with what you remove?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
AHU cleaning in Headley
We clean air handling units for buildings in Headley and across Hampshire, working to TR19® Air, in offices, schools, hospitals, care homes and retail. Units are cleaned when the site can spare them, often evenings, overnight or weekends. The work covers heating and cooling coils, filter sections and supply and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are units that have only ever had filter changes and leaves and litter drawn into the unit.
Work in a small place like Headley starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. 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.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

Headley buildings and their air
The FSA’s food hygiene register lists about 5 care, childcare and hospital premises with registered kitchens or food service across Headley and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. About 41 miles out from central London, Headley is part of the South East area we work across. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included. For Headley, the closest hospital is Chase Community Hospital, roughly 1.9 miles south-west. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.
If you manage a school such as The Holme Church of England Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Other landmarks nearby include Chase Community Hospital (1.9 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include Deadwater Valley and Wheeler's Down.
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
- Report water on the plant room floor
The report shows each section of the unit before and after, and note any part we couldn’t get to. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.
Keep the area around the intake clear. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.
What happens if it’s left?
Facilities teams are often asked for evidence that the ventilation is looked after. A TR19® certificate and photo report give you that, ready to show anyone who asks. In a place like Headley, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Parking and loading at the site
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
What to send for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any previous report or certificate
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
The process
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them, and we clear up before we go. In a small place like Headley, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We start with a survey of the unit and a fixed quote for the work.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Headley
An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and some travels further into the unit.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Headley, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Chase Community Hospital (about 1.9 miles south-west).
