About our AHU cleaning in Lingfield Common
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. If you have filters that are clogged or overdue and air handling units due a clean after building work, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Lingfield Common, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s 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.

Questions from Lingfield Common
Can ventilation in schools around Lingfield Common be cleaned out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Around Lingfield Common, the Food Standards Agency lists about 2 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Can you work in Lingfield Common outside opening hours?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Lingfield Common keeps running as normal. Just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
What do you do to protect the area?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?
Yes. The fan must be stopped and the unit isolated, so we plan it for a time that suits the building.
How far ahead should we book?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.

Leave it or put it right?
Leave an AHU uncleaned and the dirt does not stay put. It’s carried through the ductwork and out of the grilles, which is why the unit and the ducts are best cleaned together. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.

Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Make sure condensate is draining away
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Don’t store bins or materials near the intake
The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can quote for both.
Make the drain tray part of every maintenance visit. Catching a slow drain early stops standing water building up.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Lingfield Common buildings and their air
Going by the FSA’s register, there are about 5 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) serving food across Lingfield Common and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. About 3.5 miles south of Lingfield Common is Queen Victoria Hospital, the nearest hospital. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that’s as true in a care home as in a hospital. We cover Lingfield Common, about 22 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you.
For schools like Lingfield Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation. Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Queen Victoria Hospital (about 3.5 miles south) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. Workplaces around Lingfield station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts.

What the work involves, part by part
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
Rooftop and plant room units
Units outside are exposed to weather and windblown debris. We clean the intake and first stage of filters along with the rest.
