Need AHU cleaning in Mundy Bois?

What happens if it’s left?

Dirty coils and fans make the unit strain to move the same air. The result is extra wear and a building that doesn’t feel as comfortable, and a planned clean is far less disruptive than a breakdown. In a small place like Mundy Bois, a system that fails can take a site out of use.

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before work begins.

  • Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout

AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Mundy Bois

Heating and cooling coils trap dust that gets past the filters. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. Coils are cleaned carefully, with methods chosen so the fins aren’t flattened. The work covers dampers and louvres, internal panels and supply and extract fans, and people most often call us about plant that needs cleaning after a refit and air handling units with blocked filters.

Somewhere as small as Mundy Bois, ducted ventilation is usually limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.

The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Common problems we fix in Mundy Bois

Air handling units are usually tucked away on roofs, in plant rooms or above ceilings and are rarely seen by anyone but maintenance staff. Months can pass without anyone looking inside.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
  • Air handling units never cleaned inside
  • Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
  • Air handling units with blocked filters

If you manage a school such as Egerton Church of England Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • If they look at the system before pricing

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

What a clean won’t put right

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work can’t put right:

  • Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
  • Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
  • Controls and BMS settings that run the unit

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

Parts of the system we cover

  • Filter sections
  • Supply and extract fans
  • Heating and cooling coils

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.

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.

What types of premises do you cover?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.

How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?

As a guide, it takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. We plan the shutdown around that, including evenings or weekends.

What do you do to protect the area?

We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

The process

A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Visits to a village like Mundy Bois are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Clear loose items from the work area

Advice

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Different parts, different methods

Rooftop and plant room units

Units on roofs and in plant rooms can be awkward to reach. We plan safe access as part of the survey, before we quote.

Fans and fan sections

Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. Cleaning keeps it running as intended.
