How we handle AHU cleaning in Peckham Bush

An AHU clean is a thorough examination and treatment of the unit. Every section is opened, cleaned and photographed, so the report shows exactly what was done. If you have dust built up on fan impellers and odours coming through the supply air, 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.

Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

For landlords and multi-site operators

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. 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.

Different parts, different methods

Fans and fan sections

Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. Cleaning keeps it running as intended.

Filters

Filters are the first line of defence in the unit. We check them, and clean or change them as agreed in the quote, and clean the filter housing.

Peckham Bush questions

Can you do AHU cleaning in Peckham Bush?

Yes, Peckham Bush is covered. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day of the survey details.

Can the work in Peckham Bush be done at night or at weekends?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Peckham Bush does not have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.

Do you repair air handling units?

The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with the details in the report.

Do you give a certificate after the clean?

Yes, a TR19® certificate and a photo report. It includes a recommended date for the next check.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.

How long will the unit be out of action?

As a guide, it takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. We plan the shutdown around that, out of hours if needed.

Do you need to switch the unit off?

Yes. We cannot clean a running unit, so it’s switched off and made safe first. We agree the timing with your site team.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

How we price AHU cleaning

Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:

  • The number of sites or systems
  • Site rules, permits and inductions
  • The scale of the work
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

Asking for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:

  • Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Any previous report or certificate

Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Looking after it afterwards

Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:

  • Change filters on schedule and log each change
  • Do not store bins or materials near the intake
  • Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
  • Keep the certificate and photo report with the plant records

Keep filter changes on schedule between cleans, because good filters protect everything downstream. Log every change so it’s easy to see when the next is due.

Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. Sections that are awkward to open are the ones that get skipped.

What a clean won’t put right

Some problems need a different service or another trade:

  • Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
  • Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
  • Faulty motors, drives or bearings

If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on in Peckham Bush

  • Heating and cooling coils
  • Internal panels
  • Supply and extract fans
  • Filter sections

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Peckham Bush, let us know and we will plan around it.

  1. First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
  2. We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
  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 photos are taken and the certificate issued.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Ask for a quote

We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
