About our AHU cleaning in Kingston Bagpuize

If the units serving a building in Kingston Bagpuize have only had filter changes for years, 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 odours coming through the supply air and dust-coated heating and cooling coils, across internal panels, filter sections and heating and cooling coils.

In a place like Kingston Bagpuize, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, out of sight and easy to overlook. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.

We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

How the visit works

There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Everything the job in Kingston Bagpuize needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.

  1. The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
  2. We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
  3. Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Ask for a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
  • Make sure condensate is draining away
  • Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
  • Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order

The report shows each section of the unit before and after, along with anything we couldn’t reach. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.

Keep the area around the intake clear. Anything around the intake is likely to be drawn in.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Different parts, different methods

Heating and cooling coils

Because cooling coils run wet, the dirt on them tends to cling. The coil and its drain tray are cleaned as one job.

Filters

Filters are the first line of defence in the unit. We check them, and clean or change them as agreed in the quote, and the housing around them is cleaned too.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Kingston Bagpuize

Most units live out of sight on roofs, in plant rooms or in ceiling voids and are rarely seen by anyone but maintenance staff. It’s easy for a long time to go by without anyone opening the panels.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • Units that have only ever had filter changes
  • Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
  • Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
  • Odours coming through the supply air

Classrooms and halls at schools such as John Blandy Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

What to look for in a quote

  • How VAT is shown on the quote
  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • How they set the interval to the next visit
  • What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed

Our hiring checklist

When something else is needed

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
  • Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
  • Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on in Kingston Bagpuize

  • Filter sections
  • Heating and cooling coils
  • Drain trays
  • Internal panels
  • Dampers and louvres
  • Supply and extract fans

What staff can safely do

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
