- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.

AHU cleaning in Mowshurst
An air handling unit is the heart of a building’s ventilation: it draws air in, filters it, heats or cools it and pushes it round the ductwork. Anything that collects inside the unit can end up in the rooms it serves, which is why we clean the unit itself, not just the ducts. If you have air handling units due a clean after building work and air handling units never cleaned inside, we can help.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What a clean won’t put right
AHU cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
- A system that’s undersized for the building
If you are not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Filter sections
- Dampers and louvres
- Heating and cooling coils
- Drain trays
- Supply and extract fans
- Internal panels
How the job changes from site to site
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. Anything like that is recorded with pictures.
Fans and fan sections
Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. Cleaning keeps it running as intended.
FAQs for Mowshurst
Do you work at weekends in Mowshurst?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Mowshurst needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can a school’s ventilation in Mowshurst be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Around Mowshurst, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the dates the site is empty.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You’ll know exactly which parts weren’t 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.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What happens to the waste?
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?
Typically the clean takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. The shutdown is planned to fit, out of hours if needed.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Book the next check in line with the report
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Report musty smells from the vents right away
The report shows each section of the unit before and after, along with anything we couldn’t reach. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.
Don’t let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. Anything around the intake is likely to be drawn in.
Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Mowshurst
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We consider:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How big the system is
- The condition we find in the survey
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.

When to call us in Mowshurst
It matters for two reasons: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For the people using the building every day, that is the air they breathe for hours on end.
Clients normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
- Air handling units with blocked filters
If you run an office near Edenbridge station, its supply ductwork can gather dust for years before anyone looks inside.

Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
