Leckford: your questions answered
Can you do AHU cleaning in Leckford?
Yes, Leckford is covered. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us what needs doing.
Is Leckford within the area you cover?
Yes, Leckford is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. It’s often worth doing both at once, and we can survey both on the same visit.
How do you protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
What is TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
AHU cleaning in Leckford, done properly
The fan pushes every bit of air in the system, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. We are often asked to deal with air handling units with blocked filters and coils clogged with dust and debris, on supply and extract fans, dampers and louvres and heating and cooling coils.
In a village or hamlet like Leckford, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Leckford.
- 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.
- After photos are taken and the certificate issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Do you need AHU cleaning in Leckford?
Planned maintenance often covers belts, motors and filters but not cleaning. That means a unit can tick every service box and still be carrying years of dirt.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
Wherever a school like Test Valley School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
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, and that is where we come in.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Honest limits
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Faulty motors, drives or bearings
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- What state the system is in
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The scale of the work
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will talk you through it.

What else we do in Leckford
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Book the next check in line with the report
- Make sure condensate is draining away
- Report water on the plant room floor
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
Keep filter changes on schedule between cleans, as that does more than anything to keep the unit clean. Log every change so it’s easy to see when the next is due.
Do not let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. Anything around the intake is likely to be drawn in.
