- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
The process
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Mayfield.
- We start with a survey of the unit and a fixed quote for the work.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after pictures.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Ask for a quote
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before work begins.
Advice
AHU cleaning in Mayfield, 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. If you’re dealing with air handling units never cleaned inside and air handling units with blocked filters, we can put it right.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Ventilation in Mayfield buildings
At about 37 miles from central London, Mayfield sits well inside the area we cover. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. About 5 miles north-west of Mayfield is Crowborough War Memorial Hospital, the nearest hospital. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that’s as true in a care home as in a hospital.
Wherever a school like Mayfield Church of England Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
Mayfield is about 5 miles south-east of Crowborough, in East Sussex. For AHU cleaning in and around Mayfield, it’s easy to get a fixed quote: please phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
When to call us in Mayfield
Filters that aren’t 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:
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
Hospitals such as Crowborough War Memorial Hospital (about 5 miles north-west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Mayfield are no different.

Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air
- Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records
- Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
The report shows each section of the unit before and after, along with anything we couldn’t reach. Any defects we noticed, like a leaking tray or damaged lining, are listed.
Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.
Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
- Ventilation that was badly designed in the first place
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
If you’re not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Mayfield
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
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 pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
