How we handle AHU cleaning in Newpound Common

All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, with the unit switched off and made safe first. If you’re dealing with filters that are clogged or overdue and plant that has been serviced but not cleaned, 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.

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

What the work involves, part by part

Rooftop and plant room units

Many AHUs sit on roofs or in plant rooms with limited access. We plan safe access as part of the survey, before we quote.

Internal casing and panels

Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards, and check every one is shut.

How the visit works

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. After that, the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Newpound Common.

  1. We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
  2. Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
  3. We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
  4. We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
  5. After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

How to get a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Newpound Common

Can you come to Newpound Common after we close?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Newpound Common can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.

Is Newpound Common within the area you cover?

Yes. Newpound Common is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, if we can see what we need. If not, a site survey comes first, and the quote follows that.

Do you need to switch the unit off?

Yes. The unit has to be shut down and isolated before it’s opened. The shutdown is planned with whoever runs the building.

What do you do with what you remove?

It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.

What do you need from me for a quote?

Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and any previous paperwork make it quicker. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Which sectors do you work in?

Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.

Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?

Yes, the ductwork, grilles and diffusers the unit serves. The survey shows whether the ducts need cleaning now.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

Why it’s worth doing now in Newpound Common

Tenants, auditors and owners may want proof that the air handling plant is kept clean. Our certificate and photo report give you clear evidence, for audits, tenants or your own peace of mind. Somewhere as small as Newpound Common, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.

You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll talk you through it.

How we price AHU cleaning

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • The condition we find in the survey
  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • How big the system is

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.

What we need to know

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

What we are called out for in Newpound Common

Air handling units are usually 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.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Filters that are clogged or overdue
  • Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
  • Units that have only ever had filter changes
  • Leaves and litter drawn into the unit

For buildings in and around Newpound Common, TR19® Air cleaning starts with an inspection.
