AHU cleaning in Litlington
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and before and after photos in a report. Common call-outs are for plant that has been serviced but not cleaned and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris, across supply and extract fans, filter sections and heating and cooling coils.
Somewhere as small as Litlington, ducted ventilation is usually limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
What AHU cleaning looks like in Litlington
The nearest hospital to Litlington is Chailey Heritage Marine Hospital, about 4.1 miles west. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale. We cover Litlington, about 50 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.
Hospitals such as Chailey Heritage Marine Hospital (about 4.1 miles west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Litlington are no different. If you manage a school such as Alfriston School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Litlington
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How big the system is
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How easy every part is to reach
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Do not store bins or materials near the intake
- Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
Once the clean is done, we send a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after photos. Keep both with the building’s maintenance records.
Make the drain tray part of every maintenance visit. A drain that is cleared early never gets to the slime stage.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts, and we clear up before we go. The timing of a visit to Litlington is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
Before we arrive
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Clear loose items from the work area
Getting a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Multi-site and managed buildings
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Litlington and across East Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Your questions about AHU cleaning in Litlington
Can you come to Litlington after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Litlington keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can you get to a site in Litlington?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
What about areas you cannot get to?
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.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Can you fix a faulty AHU?
Mechanical repairs to the unit are for your HVAC maintenance contractor. We clean the unit and report anything we see that needs attention.
Are you accredited?
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.
What the work involves, part by part
Drain trays
Standing water in a tray sits right where the air passes. We clean it and report anything about the tray or drain that needs fixing.
Rooftop and plant room units
Units on roofs and in plant rooms can be awkward to reach. Access is planned during the survey so the quote reflects it.
