Hever AHU cleaning
AHU cleaning for Hever, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
How we handle AHU cleaning in Hever
No two plant rooms are the same, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. We look at the unit first, from photos or a site visit, and give you a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. The work covers dampers and louvres, filter sections and heating and cooling coils, and common reasons people get in touch are odours coming through the supply air and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris.
Work in a small place like Hever starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Hever: your questions answered
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Hever in the summer holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Hever. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Do you work overnight in Hever?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Hever can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we have been trading since 2009.
What do you need from me for a quote?
A short description and a few pictures, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes, the ductwork, grilles and diffusers the unit serves. We will tell you after the survey whether the ducts need it.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
How often do AHUs need cleaning?
That’s set by inspection, in line with TR19® Air. Units in heavy use or in sensitive buildings may need attention more often.
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
- Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air
- Report water on the plant room floor
We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, based on what we found. TR19® Air is risk-based, so the interval depends on the unit and how the building is used.
Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.
Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Hever
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- How big the system is
- The times the site is available
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Travel, parking and unloading
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
For AHU cleaning in Hever, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hever
When the unit is clean, less dirt reaches the ducts, so the ducts and grilles stay cleaner between cleans. It also means the next inspection has less to find. With notice, the visit to Hever can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What staff can safely do
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Hever.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Move anything stored near the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Ventilation in Hever buildings

About 5.7 miles south-west of Hever is Queen Victoria Hospital, the nearest hospital. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.
Healthcare buildings such as Queen Victoria Hospital, about 5.7 miles south-west, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Hever, yours matters too. If you manage a school such as Hever Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays. Workplaces around Hever station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts.
