AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Marley
The fan pushes every bit of air in the system, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, with the unit switched off and made safe first. Common call-outs are for leaves and litter drawn into the unit and dirty fans and fan housings, on internal panels, heating and cooling coils and supply and extract fans.
Work in a small place like Marley starts with agreeing access and timings.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after each visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How we price AHU cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Parking and loading at the site
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The size of the system
- What state the system is in
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we will explain what it covers.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Problems your staff have spotted
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Part by part
Heating and cooling coils
Because cooling coils run wet, the dirt on them tends to cling. The coil and its drain tray are cleaned as one job.
Fans and fan sections
Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe with your site team.
Do you need AHU cleaning in Marley?
Filters that are not changed or cleaned on time clog up, which cuts the airflow and can let air slip round the filter. After that, the coils and fan collect what the filter should have caught.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Plant that has been serviced but not cleaned
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
If you manage a school such as Harrietsham Church of England Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Proof of insurance
- Whether they recommend a next date
Why deal with it now?
If people in a building in Marley complain about stuffy or smelly air, the AHU is worth looking at. A clean tackles the source instead of masking it. Planning a trip to Marley ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

What we do, step by step
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too.

- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- 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.
- We take after photos and issue the certificate and report.
