AHU cleaning in Newton Longville
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. The work covers supply and extract fans, internal panels and dampers and louvres, and common reasons people get in touch are dust-coated heating and cooling coils and filters that are clogged or overdue.
For a building in or near Newton Longville, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.

All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

Under TR19® Air, cleaning is led by inspection and risk rather than a set calendar. Each report suggests when the unit should next be looked at.

What we do, step by step
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Newton Longville and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Clear the space around the work
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Newton Longville
It matters for two reasons: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For the people using the building every day, that’s the air they breathe for hours on end.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Odours coming through the supply air
If you manage a school such as Newton Longville Church of England Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Part by part
Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
Drain trays
Drain trays can rust and leak over time. Their condition goes into the report with photos so repairs can be planned.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
Keep filter changes on schedule between cleans, because good filters protect everything downstream. Record each change in the maintenance log.
Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. Sections that are awkward to open are the ones that get skipped.
