FAQs for Marsh Green

Is Marsh Green within the area you cover?

Yes, Marsh Green is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.

Can the work in Marsh Green be done at night or at weekends?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Marsh Green keeps running as normal. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.

How much notice do you need?

For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

Are you accredited?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we are fully insured.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

Is there a report after cleaning?

Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. They’re worth keeping with the plant records.

Do you clean the ductwork as well?

Yes, the ductwork, grilles and diffusers the unit serves. We’ll tell you after the survey whether the ducts need it.

AHU cleaning in Marsh Green, done properly

Drain trays under cooling coils are meant to empty. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, in the airstream that feeds the building. Cleaning and clearing it is a key part of the job. The work covers heating and cooling coils, dampers and louvres and drain trays, and common reasons people get in touch are rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs and dust built up on fan impellers.

For a building in or near Marsh Green, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.

Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

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.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across the Isle of Wight. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

Why it’s worth doing now in Marsh Green

Dirt left in an air handling unit does not stay in the unit. It moves on into the ductwork and out into the rooms, which is why the unit and the ducts are best cleaned together. A fault that closes a site in a village like Marsh Green affects everyone who depends on it.

A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

Why us?

  • One number for every site across the South East and London
  • BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
  • CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001
  • Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover

Common problems we fix in Marsh Green

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.

Look out for these warning signs:

  • Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
  • Dirty fans and fan housings
  • Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
  • Dust-coated heating and cooling coils

For schools like Brighstone Church of England Aided Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What insurance they carry
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate

Questions to ask before booking

Keeping the system healthy

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Report musty smells from the vents right away
  • Report stiff or damaged access doors
  • Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
  • Clear leaves and litter away from 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.

Keep the unit’s doors and panels in working order. If a section is hard to get into, it tends not to get checked.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:

  • The scale of the work
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Where the site is and how we reach it

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

What we need to know

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

What happens on the day

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. The timing of a visit to Marsh Green is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.

  1. We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
  2. We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
  3. Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.

Before we arrive

  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
