What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Parking and loading at the site
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The site address and the type of premises
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
How we handle AHU cleaning in Neithrop
Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. We clean coils with methods suited to their condition, taking care not to damage the fins. If you have coils clogged with dust and debris and air handling units due a clean after building work, we can help.
In a place like Neithrop, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, out of sight and easy to overlook. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Don’t ignore odours coming through the grilles
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
The report suggests a date for the next inspection or clean, 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.
Change or clean filters on time. Overloaded filters let more dirt through to the coils and fan.
Neithrop buildings and their air
Food Standards Agency data includes about 9 schools, colleges and universities, about 18 care, childcare and hospital premises and about 9 hotels and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Neithrop. Classrooms, bedrooms and care spaces are often served by ducted air, and that ductwork collects dust over time. Horton General Hospital is the nearest hospital, about 1.2 miles east of Neithrop. Healthcare ventilation is a good example of why supply ducts need inspecting: the air goes straight to patients.
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Horton General Hospital (about 1.2 miles east) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.

Neithrop: your questions answered
Can ventilation in schools around Neithrop be cleaned out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. There are about 9 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Neithrop. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can you get to a site in Neithrop?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus pictures of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate plus before and after pictures. They’re worth keeping with the plant records.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
When should our AHU next 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.

- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit

Why act early in Neithrop
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Neithrop can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. A planned visit to Neithrop fits your hours; an emergency doesn’t.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Tell us when your site near Neithrop is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
Before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Clear loose items from the work area
