AHU cleaning in Hollington, done properly
Drain trays under cooling coils are meant to empty. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, right in the path of the air going into the building. Cleaning and clearing it is a key part of the job. If you’re dealing with dust built up on fan impellers and odours coming through the supply air, we can help.
For a building in or near Hollington, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Common questions in Hollington
Can you get to a site in Hollington?
Yes, Hollington is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you work in Hollington outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Hollington keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
What’s included in an AHU clean?
All the internal parts the air touches, from intake to discharge, including coils, fan and drain trays. You get a photo report showing each part before and after.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
Will the ventilation be off while you clean?
Yes. We can’t clean a running unit, so it’s switched off and made safe first. The shutdown is planned with whoever runs the building.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
What do you do with what you remove?
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.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What AHU cleaning looks like in Hollington
There are about 6 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hollington. Many buildings of this kind have supply and extract ductwork that gathers dust and needs inspecting. We cover Hollington, about 57 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.

Why deal with it now?
When the unit is clean, less dirt reaches the ducts, so the whole system stays cleaner for longer. It also means the next inspection has less to find. A planned visit to Hollington is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

What affects the quote in Hollington
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How easy every part is to reach
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The site address and the type of premises
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Hollington can be planned properly.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us where we can park and unload

When it’s something else
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
- A system that’s undersized for the building
- Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What the work covers
- Internal panels
- Dampers and louvres
- Drain trays
- Supply and extract fans
- Heating and cooling coils
- Filter sections
What the work involves, part by part
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. The filter section is cleaned so new or cleaned filters sit properly.
Fans and fan sections
Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe in agreement with the site.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you need AHU cleaning in Hollington?
Dirt in an AHU matters in two ways: air quality, since the unit feeds occupied rooms, and performance, since dirt makes it strain. For the people using the building every day, that is the air they breathe for hours on end.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
- Drain trays holding standing water
For schools like St Thomas' Church of England Infant School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
What your quote should include
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- What insurance they carry
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- How VAT is shown on the quote
