AHU cleaning for sites in Hell Corner

AHU cleaning in Hell Corner

No two plant rooms are the same, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. Every job starts with a survey, from pictures or on site, followed by a fixed quote before any cleaning starts. The work covers internal panels, dampers and louvres and drain trays, and people most often call us about condensate trays that won’t empty and rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs.

Work in a small place like Hell Corner 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’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

How it works

Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Somewhere as small as Hell Corner, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
  2. We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
  3. We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
  4. We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
  5. After photos are taken and the certificate issued.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Clear the space around the work
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Get a fixed quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

FAQs for Hell Corner

Is Hell Corner in your area for AHU cleaning?

Yes, Hell Corner is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Get in touch with the details and we’ll arrange a survey.

Can you come to Hell Corner after we close?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Hell Corner needn’t be disturbed. When you call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.

What do you do with what you remove?

It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.

Are you accredited?

CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

Do you give a certificate after the clean?

Yes. A TR19® certificate and photo report are sent after the clean, with any faults we noticed.

Will you repair the fan or motor?

Motors, belts, controls and coils that need repair are a job for your maintenance contractor. We clean the unit and report anything we see that needs attention.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.

What a clean will not put right

We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what AHU cleaning will not do:

  • Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
  • Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
  • Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing

If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

What the work covers

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

How we price AHU cleaning

Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • What state the system is in
  • The size of the system
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing

Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Helping us quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hell Corner

A clogged coil or dirty fan makes the unit work harder for the same airflow. The result is extra wear and a building that does not feel as comfortable, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

Every site is different, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

Why us?

  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
  • Every job surveyed first
  • Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
  • Ventilation hygiene specialists since 2009

Between visits

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
  • Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records
  • Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
  • Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order

The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can survey both.

Do not let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.

For landlords and multi-site operators

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Hell Corner and across West Berkshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
