AHU cleaning in High Park Corner, done properly
Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, 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. If you’re dealing with blocked condensate drains and slimy trays and dust-coated heating and cooling coils, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like High Park Corner, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

When it’s something else
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

- Heating and cooling coils
- Dampers and louvres
- Drain trays

Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
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.
Questions from High Park Corner
Do you work overnight in High Park Corner?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in High Park Corner can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you cover High Park Corner for AHU cleaning?
Yes, High Park Corner is within the area we cover across London and the South East. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with a few pictures of the system.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
How much notice should we give?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
Do you clean the ductwork as well?
Yes. Ductwork is cleaned through access panels, and any sections we cannot reach are noted in the report, with new panels fitted where needed.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
As a guide, it takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. We plan the shutdown around that, out of hours if needed.
How often do AHUs need cleaning?
There’s no single answer; it comes down to the building and the unit. Inspection tells you when cleaning is needed, and the report recommends a next date.
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
When we’ve closed the unit up, it can be restarted with your site team. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to make sure it stays clear.
Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.
