About our AHU cleaning in Newchapel
Where a building in Newchapel has had little more than filter changes, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. The work covers supply and extract fans, internal panels and filter sections, and common reasons people get in touch are coils clogged with dust and debris and fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Different parts, different methods
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
Internal casing and panels
Damaged internal linings or loose panels can shed material into the air. Anything like that is recorded with pictures.
Common problems we fix in Newchapel
Air handling units are normally tucked away on roofs, in plant rooms or above ceilings and are rarely seen by anyone but maintenance staff. It’s easy for a long time to go by without anyone opening the panels.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Condensate trays that will not empty
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
For schools like Imberhorne School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- What insurance they carry
- Whether a written report and photos are included

Do you work at weekends in Newchapel?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Newchapel can fit around your hours. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
What information do you need?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. We’ll ask for anything else we need.
Will the ventilation be off while you clean?
Yes. Cleaning needs the unit off and isolated, so we plan it for a time that suits the building.

Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Will we get paperwork for the AHU clean?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate plus before and after photos. Keep them in the maintenance log.
What’s included in an AHU clean?
Filters, coils, drain trays, the fan and the internal surfaces are all covered. What happens to the filters is agreed when we quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Newchapel
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

Between visits
So the system stays in good health:
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Do not store bins or materials near the intake
- Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
Stick to the filter change schedule, as that does more than anything to keep the unit clean. Record each change in the maintenance log.
Keep the unit’s doors and panels in working order. If a section is hard to get into, it tends not to get checked.

What we do, step by step

From there, it takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Newchapel.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
