AHU cleaning in Odiham
Think of an AHU clean as a full check-up for the ventilation. We look inside each section, clean what we find and record it with photos, so you can see the unit’s condition for yourself. The work covers drain trays, heating and cooling coils and filter sections, and the jobs we see most are air handling units never cleaned inside and dust built up on fan impellers.
Visits to a place like Odiham are fitted around opening hours. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Signs you need AHU cleaning in Odiham
It matters for two reasons: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For anyone working, learning or staying in a building in Odiham, that is air they breathe for hours at a time.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Plant that needs cleaning after a refit
- Dirty fans and fan housings
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Mayhill Junior School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.

Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Odiham
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The scale of the work
- The times the site is available
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Helping us quote
What to send for a quote:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Any previous report or certificate
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
Common questions in Odiham
Do you work overnight in Odiham?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Odiham can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Will you come out to Odiham?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Odiham included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
How often do AHUs need cleaning?
Inspection under TR19® Air decides it. A hard-working unit, or one serving a hospital or care home, may need cleaning more often.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.

What the work involves, part by part
Heating and cooling coils
Heating and cooling coils have tightly packed fins that trap fine dust. They’re cleaned using methods that will not bend or flatten the fins.
Fans and fan sections
Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe in agreement with the site.
How it works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. Your opening hours decide when we come to Odiham, not ours.
- We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Clear the space around the work

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.
Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Dirty coils and fans make the unit strain to move the same air. The result is extra wear and a building that doesn’t feel as comfortable, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. Even a site near Odiham that is only busy part of the week needs its system checked on a schedule.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
