About our AHU cleaning in Hinton Waldrist

Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. Dirt on the fins holds back air and makes the unit work harder to do the same job. Coils are cleaned carefully, with methods chosen so the fins are not flattened. The work covers drain trays, internal panels and supply and extract fans, and common reasons people get in touch are intake sections clogged with outdoor debris and dirty filters cutting the airflow.

In a village or hamlet like Hinton Waldrist, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

What we do, step by step

We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. The timing of a visit to Hinton Waldrist is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
  2. We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
  3. Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Aftercare tips

So the system stays in good health:

  • Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
  • Make sure condensate is draining away
  • Book the next check in line with the report
  • Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records

Stick to the filter change schedule, as that does more than anything to keep the unit clean. Record each change in the maintenance log.

Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. Sections that are awkward to open are the ones that get skipped.

What the work involves, part by part

Fans and fan sections

Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. A clean fan runs more smoothly.

Rooftop and plant room units

Rooftop units take the weather, and intakes can collect leaves and debris. The intake section gets particular attention.

Common questions in Hinton Waldrist

Can you do AHU cleaning in Hinton Waldrist?

Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Hinton Waldrist is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.

Do you work in villages like Hinton Waldrist?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Hinton Waldrist is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

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.

Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?

Yes. The fan must be stopped and the unit isolated, so we plan it for a time that suits the building.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.

How much notice do you need?

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 for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

What does TR19 mean?

It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.

Where does the waste go?

Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.

What your team can do, and what needs us

For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning

A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:

  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • The scale of the work

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

What to send for a quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to have:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Your last certificate, test record or report

Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before work begins.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

What a clean won’t put right

We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:

  • Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
  • The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
  • Faulty motors, drives or bearings

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
