About our AHU cleaning in Hertingfordbury
Our AHU cleans for sites in Hertingfordbury cover the parts that collect dirt: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. Common call-outs are for debris and leaves in the fresh air intake and coils clogged with dust and debris, across dampers and louvres, drain trays and filter sections.
Work in a small place like Hertingfordbury starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Common problems we fix in Hertingfordbury
Mechanical servicing keeps a unit running, but it does not always include cleaning the inside. That means a unit can tick every service box and still be carrying years of dirt.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
Hospitals such as Hertford County Hospital (about 0.8 miles north-east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Hertingfordbury are no different.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
How we price AHU cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- The condition of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The size of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Any previous report or certificate
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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.
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.
Hertingfordbury: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Hertingfordbury?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Hertingfordbury can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you cover smaller places like Hertingfordbury?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
When should our AHU next be cleaned?
Inspection under TR19® Air decides it. Units in heavy use or in sensitive buildings may need attention more often.
Which parts of an air handling unit do you clean?
Everything inside the unit that air passes over, from the intake and filters through the coils and fan to the outlet. The photo report shows each section before and after.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
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.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
AHU cleaning is what we offer here, not mechanical repairs. If we spot a fault, we note it in the report so your maintenance contractor can deal with it.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. Ductwork is cleaned through access panels, and any sections we cannot reach are noted in the report, and new panels can be fitted.
What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. The timing of a visit to Hertingfordbury is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- 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 are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

What the work involves, part by part
Heating and cooling coils
Heating and cooling coils have tightly packed fins that trap fine dust. We clean them with care so the fins aren’t damaged.
Rooftop and plant room units
Units on roofs and in plant rooms can be awkward to reach. We plan safe access as part of the survey so the quote reflects it.
Why act early in Hertingfordbury
Leave an AHU uncleaned and the dirt doesn’t stay put. It moves on into the ductwork and out into the rooms, so cleaning the ducts without the unit only goes so far. In a place like Hertingfordbury, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
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 book with us
- One contact for all your sites in London and the South East
- Survey first, then a fixed quote
- A written report with photos after every visit
- Fully insured

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t 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.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
