AHU cleaning in Lovedean
Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. Dirt on the fins holds back air and makes the unit work harder to do the same job. Coils are cleaned carefully, with methods chosen so the fins aren’t flattened. If you are dealing with units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover and dirty filters cutting the airflow, we can put it right, from drain trays, heating and cooling coils and filter sections onwards.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Lovedean
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Parking and loading at the site
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The scale of the work
A single site or a whole portfolio, 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
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The site address and the type of premises
- Any previous report or certificate
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will usually have a quote within one working day.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Do not ignore odours coming through the grilles
- Make sure condensate is draining away
Stick to the filter change schedule, 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.
Make the drain tray part of every maintenance visit. Catching a slow drain early stops standing water building up.
When it’s something else
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
- Faulty motors, drives or bearings
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Lovedean
Will you come out to Lovedean?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you come to Lovedean after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Lovedean keeps running as normal. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Will we get paperwork for the AHU clean?
Yes, a TR19® certificate and a photo report. The report also suggests when the unit should next be inspected.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Do you clean the ductwork as well?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can survey both on the same visit.
What’s included in an AHU clean?
Every section that collects dirt: filters, coils, tray, fan and panels. The survey confirms what’s in your unit before we quote.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Leave it or put it right?
Cleaning a unit while it only has light dust is quick. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, especially where there’s been moisture. With notice, the visit to Lovedean can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line

What else we do in Lovedean
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: 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’s where we come in.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Different parts, different methods
Fans and fan sections
Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe with your site team.
Rooftop and plant room units
Units outside are exposed to weather and windblown debris. The intake section gets particular attention.
What happens on the day
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report.

- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
