AHU cleaning for sites in Midgham Green

About our AHU cleaning in Midgham Green

All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dirt on the impeller and housing gets spread around. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. Common call-outs are for air handling units with blocked filters and debris and leaves in the fresh air intake, on drain trays, internal panels and supply and extract fans.

Work in a small place like Midgham Green starts with agreeing access and timings.

We have been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Midgham Green buildings and their air

We cover Midgham Green, about 48 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Midgham Green’s nearest hospital, West Berkshire Community Hospital, is about 4.5 miles west. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.

Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like West Berkshire Community Hospital (about 4.5 miles west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. For workplaces around Midgham station with mechanical ventilation, cleaning can be done in the evening or at weekends.

Midgham Green is about 3 miles east of Thatcham, in West Berkshire. Across the RG7 area, we can take on AHU cleaning. Across West Berkshire, we cover 155 places, Midgham Green among them. Reading is in our area too, about 10 miles from Midgham Green.

AHU cleaning in RG7 is surveyed, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. You’ll find streets such as New Road Hill and Carbinswood Lane, and we cover them all for AHU cleaning. We also cover Upper Woolhampton (1 mile east), Chapel Row (1 mile north-east), Beenham (2 miles east), Beenham Stocks (2 miles east) and Aldermaston Wharf (2 miles east). Within a short drive, we also cover Newbury (6 miles west), Thatcham (3 miles west), Burghfield Common (5 miles east), Speenhamland (6 miles west), Hungerford (14 miles west) and Spencers Wood (9 miles east).

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Midgham Green

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 any of the following:

  • Dirty coils holding back the airflow
  • Air handling units due a clean after building work
  • Air handling units never cleaned inside
  • Stale or musty smells from the ventilation

Wherever a school like Woolhampton C.E. Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

When it’s something else

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Ventilation that was badly designed in the first place
  • Building management system faults
  • The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately

Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on in Midgham Green

  • Dampers and louvres
  • Supply and extract fans
  • Drain trays
  • Heating and cooling coils
  • Internal panels
  • Filter sections

What happens on the day

There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Midgham Green before we set off.

  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. We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
  5. The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

Ask for a quote

For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form 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 normally have a quote within one working day.

Advice

What happens if it’s left?

Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Midgham Green can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Midgham Green

Do you cover smaller places like Midgham Green?

Yes. Midgham Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.

Do you cover Midgham Green for AHU cleaning?

Yes, we work in Midgham Green and the places around it. Just call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with a few details of the site.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.

Where does the waste go?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.

How long will the unit be out of action?

The work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Large plant can be split over several shifts, so ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email to talk it through.

What happens if you cannot reach some of it?

We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.

Is there a report after cleaning?

Yes. You get a TR19® certificate plus before and after pictures. Keep them in the maintenance log.

Which kinds of sites do you work on?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.

Between visits

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Do not store bins or materials near the intake
  • Report stiff or damaged access doors
  • File each AHU report in the maintenance log
  • Diary the inspection date recommended in the report

We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, taking into account how dirty it was. TR19® Air is risk-based, so the interval depends on the unit and how the building is used.

Check drain trays and condensate drains during routine maintenance. A drain that’s cleared early never gets to the slime stage.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
