About our AHU cleaning in Kintbury
No two plant rooms are the same, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. Every job starts with a survey, from photos or on site, followed by a fixed quote before any cleaning starts. Typical jobs include fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years and leaves and litter drawn into the unit, on filter sections, internal panels and drain trays.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Kintbury
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How big the system is
- How easy every part is to reach
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we’ll explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- The postcode and the type of business
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Part by part
Rooftop and plant room units
Smaller units in ceiling voids are part of the work as well. The space underneath is protected with sheeting first.
Drain trays
The drain tray collects water from the cooling coil. We clear standing water, clean out slime and check the outlet is draining.
When something else is needed
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Ventilation that was badly designed in the first place
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.
Where we work
- Heating and cooling coils
- Drain trays
- Dampers and louvres
- Supply and extract fans
- Filter sections
- Internal panels
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. In a small place like Kintbury, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- With your site team, the unit is switched off and isolated, then the area around it protected.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
How to get a quote
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You’ll usually have a quote within one working day.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Kintbury
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. A fault that closes a site in a village like Kintbury affects everyone who depends on it.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. A TR19® certificate and photo report are sent after the clean, with any faults we noticed.

They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
How long does an AHU clean take?
Cleaning takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Large plant can be split over several shifts, and you can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form to plan it.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote usually follows within one working day. If photos aren’t enough, we’ll survey first.
Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?
Yes, the ductwork, grilles and diffusers the unit serves. The survey shows whether the ducts need cleaning now.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.

What staff can safely do
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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, which is where we come in.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
