AHU cleaning in Horsleys Green, done properly
A cooling coil drips condensate into a tray that should drain away. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, in the airstream that feeds the building. Cleaning and clearing it is a key part of the job. We are often asked to deal with debris and leaves in the fresh air intake and plant that needs cleaning after a refit, on drain trays, supply and extract fans and dampers and louvres.
Somewhere as small as Horsleys Green, ducted ventilation is typically limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning 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. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How it works
Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. The timing of a visit to Horsleys Green is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Different parts, different methods
Rooftop and plant room units
Units outside are exposed to weather and windblown debris. We clean the intake and first stage of filters along with the rest.
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. They’re cleaned using methods that will not bend or flatten the fins.

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. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
Restart the unit with your site team or maintenance contractor once we’ve finished. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to make sure it stays clear.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.
FAQs for Horsleys Green
Can the work in Horsleys Green be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Horsleys Green can fit around your hours. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can a school’s ventilation in Horsleys Green be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. There are about 2 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Horsleys Green. You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the dates the site is empty.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. After that, simply call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?
Yes. Ventilation ductwork cleaning to TR19® Air is part of what we do. It’s often worth doing both at once, and we can quote for both.
Which accreditations do you hold?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We’ve been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?
Yes. The unit has to be shut down and isolated before it’s opened. We agree the timing with your site team.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
What affects the quote in Horsleys Green
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How big the system is
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.
Asking for a quote
We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:
- A few general shots of the system
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The postcode and the type of business
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
To get a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by AHU cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
- A system that is undersized for the building
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
