How we handle AHU cleaning in Ludgershall

Think of an AHU clean as a full check-up for the ventilation. Every section is opened, cleaned and photographed, so the report shows exactly what was done. Typical jobs include condensate trays that won’t empty and stale or musty smells from the ventilation, on drain trays, filter sections and heating and cooling coils.

In a smaller place like Ludgershall, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Even a small system collects dust in its ducts and filters.

Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, 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.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

Aftercare tips

To keep the system working properly between visits:

  • Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
  • Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
  • Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
  • Change filters on schedule and log each change

The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can survey both.

Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Overloaded filters let more dirt through to the coils and fan.

Different parts, different methods

Heating and cooling coils

Heating and cooling coils have tightly packed fins that trap fine dust. They’re cleaned using methods that won’t bend or flatten the fins.

Drain trays

Drain trays can rust and leak over time. We record their condition with photos so repairs can be planned.

Why it’s worth doing now in Ludgershall

A clogged coil or dirty fan makes the unit work harder for the same airflow. That means more wear on the motor and rooms that feel less fresh, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. A planned visit to Ludgershall fits your hours; an emergency does not.

Do you need AHU cleaning in Ludgershall?

Dirt in an AHU matters in two ways: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For the people using the building every day, that’s the air they breathe for hours on end.

The symptoms we are asked about most include:

  • Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
  • Dust built up on fan impellers
  • Air handling units never cleaned inside
  • Plant that needs cleaning after a refit

For buildings in and around Ludgershall, TR19® Air cleaning starts with an inspection.

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

Multi-site and managed buildings

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

Common questions in Ludgershall

Can you come to Ludgershall after we close?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Ludgershall needn’t be disturbed. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Is Ludgershall in your area for AHU cleaning?

Yes, Ludgershall is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Get in touch with the details and we will arrange a survey.

What do you do to protect the area?

By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.

Will you repair the fan or motor?

We clean the unit and flag faults rather than repair them, with the details in the report.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.

Will we get paperwork for the AHU clean?

Yes. You receive a certificate and a report showing each section before and after, with any faults we noticed.

How it works

We turn up at the time agreed with you, often in the evening, overnight or at the weekend so the site keeps working. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool before we start, and the area around the work is covered and protected. The work itself takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. Because the survey comes first, a visit to Ludgershall can usually be finished without a second trip.

  1. We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
  2. The area is protected and the unit made safe.
  3. Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.

How to prepare

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
