AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Jarvis Brook
The fan pushes every bit of air in the system, so dirt on the impeller and housing gets spread around. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, with the unit switched off and made safe first. The work covers supply and extract fans, filter sections and dampers and louvres, and common reasons people get in touch are rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs and condensate trays that won’t empty.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

How the job changes from site to site
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. Anything like that is recorded with photos.
Filters
What’s on the filters is a good clue to what’s further in. They’re photographed before and after for your records.
Why act early in Jarvis Brook
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. In a small place like Jarvis Brook, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

Do you need AHU cleaning in Jarvis Brook?
An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and some travels further into the unit.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Dirty coils holding back the airflow
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
If you manage shops or offices close to Crowborough station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning.
Questions to ask before you book
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the price is fixed
Multi-site and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Jarvis Brook
Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
- Report musty smells from the vents right away
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can survey both.
Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. Sections that are awkward to open are the ones that get skipped.
The process
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Somewhere as small as Jarvis Brook, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We survey the unit from photos or on site and agree what’s included.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
How to get a quote
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, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
