AHU cleaning in Holt Pound

Think of an AHU clean as a full check-up for the ventilation. We look inside each section, clean what we find and record it with pictures, so you can see the unit’s condition for yourself. Common call-outs are for air handling units never cleaned inside and units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover, on dampers and louvres, filter sections and heating and cooling coils.

Work in a small place like Holt Pound starts with agreeing access and timings, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

What happens on the day

There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Holt Pound can be planned properly.

  1. First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
  2. Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
  3. Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
  4. The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
  5. We take after pictures and issue the certificate and report.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.

What’s included in an AHU clean?

The main parts are the filters, coils, drain tray, fan and inside of the casing. The survey confirms what’s in your unit before we quote.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.

What does TR19 mean?

It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

What we’re called out for in Holt Pound

Mechanical servicing keeps a unit running, but it doesn’t always include cleaning the inside. That means a unit can tick every service box and still be carrying years of dirt.

Look out for these warning signs:

  • Air handling units due a clean after building work
  • Drain trays holding standing water
  • Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
  • Coils clogged with dust and debris

Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Chase Community Hospital (about 5.6 miles south) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • How they set the interval to the next visit
  • How areas they can’t reach will be recorded

Questions to ask before you book

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning

The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • How big the system is
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle

We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will explain what it covers.

What to send for a quote

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Want a quote for AHU cleaning? Please call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with a few details about the site. We will explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before you commit to anything.

Why it’s worth doing now in Holt Pound

A clogged coil or dirty fan makes the unit work harder for the same airflow. The result is extra wear and a building that doesn’t feel as comfortable, and a planned clean is far less disruptive than a breakdown. In a small place like Holt Pound, a system that fails can take a site out of use.

What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before any work starts.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Different parts, different methods

Heating and cooling coils

Dirt on a coil slows the air and makes it harder for the coil to heat or cool. Cleaning restores the open path through the fins.

Filters

Filter condition tells you a lot about the rest of the unit. They’re photographed before and after for your records.
