How the job changes from site to site
Drain trays
Older trays can corrode and start leaking. We record their condition with pictures so you can decide on any repairs.
Heating and cooling coils
Cooling coils stay damp in use, so dirt on them can turn sticky. We clean the coil and the tray beneath it together.
AHU cleaning in Mystole, done properly
No two plant rooms are the same, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. Every job starts with a survey, from pictures or on site, followed by a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. The work covers dampers and louvres, supply and extract fans and internal panels, and the jobs we see most are filters that are clogged or overdue and units that have only ever had filter changes.
In a village or hamlet like Mystole, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Mystole questions
Do you work at weekends in Mystole?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you cover smaller places like Mystole?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Mystole is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
How long does an AHU clean take?
Expect it to take half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. The unit’s size and condition make the biggest difference, and the quote will give you a clear idea.
How often should an air handling unit be cleaned?
TR19® Air takes a risk-based approach, so it depends on inspection rather than a fixed interval. We recommend a next date in each report.
Which sectors do you work in?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What do you do with what you remove?
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.
What should I send you?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. We will ask for anything else we need.
How much does AHU cleaning cost in Mystole?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before any work starts.

What else we do in Mystole
Why deal with it now?
A slimy drain tray only gets worse. Leave it and you risk overflows, leaks into the space below and odours carried round the building. Dealing with it early keeps the clean straightforward. Somewhere as small as Mystole, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

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. From there, it takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. In a small place like Mystole, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Mystole
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- How many systems or sites are involved
- The condition of the system
- How easy every part is to reach
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Asking for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
Keep filter changes on schedule between cleans, because good filters protect everything downstream. Log every change so it’s easy to see when the next is due.
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.
What a clean will not put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
