Jury's Gap AHU cleaning
AHU cleaning across Jury's Gap and nearby, timed so the site keeps working and signed off in writing with pictures.
- Condensate trays that will not empty
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
Restart the unit with your site team or maintenance contractor once we have finished. Keep an eye on the condensate drain over the next few days to confirm water is draining away.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.
About our AHU cleaning in Jury's Gap
Where a building in Jury's Gap has had little more than filter changes, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full clean deals with all of it. Common call-outs are for units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover and rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs, on supply and extract fans, dampers and louvres and internal panels.
Somewhere as small as Jury's Gap, ducted ventilation is usually limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Jury's Gap and across East Sussex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
What AHU cleaning cannot fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what AHU cleaning won’t do:
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Ventilation that was badly designed in the first place
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Jury's Gap
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The condition we find in the survey
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Any permits to work or inductions
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
What we do, step by step
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. For a village or hamlet like Jury's Gap, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before photos of each section of the unit.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- We take after photos and issue the certificate and report.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Advice
Do you need AHU cleaning in Jury's Gap?
Mechanical servicing keeps a unit running, but it does not always include cleaning the inside. So a unit can be well maintained and still dirty.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Dirty coils holding back the airflow
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Dust built up on fan impellers
Around Jury's Gap, as anywhere, ventilation cleaning begins with an inspection.
Questions to ask before you book
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
Jury's Gap: your questions answered
Can you work in Jury's Gap outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Can you get to a site in Jury's Gap?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Jury's Gap is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.
What is TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
How long does an AHU clean take?
Typically the clean takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. The shutdown is planned to fit, out of hours if needed.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
What do you clean inside the unit?
Every section that collects dirt: filters, coils, tray, fan and panels. We confirm the scope after looking at the unit.
How often should an air handling unit be cleaned?
That’s set by inspection, in line with TR19® Air. A hard-working unit, or one serving a hospital or care home, may need cleaning more often.
Different parts, different methods
Fans and fan sections
The fan section is cleaned with the unit switched off and isolated in agreement with the site.
Drain trays
The drain tray collects water from the cooling coil. We clear standing water, clean out slime and check the outlet is draining.
