Different parts, different methods
Filters
What’s on the filters is a good clue to what’s further in. They’re photographed before and after for your records.
Heating and cooling coils
Dirt on a coil slows the air and makes it harder for the coil to heat or cool. A clean gets air moving through the coil properly again.
AHU cleaning in Plaitford Green
The fan pushes every bit of air in the system, so dirt on the impeller and housing gets spread around. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, with the unit switched off and made safe first. If you have fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years and debris and leaves in the fresh air intake, we can help.
Work in a small place like Plaitford Green starts with agreeing access and timings.
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.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
What affects the quote in Plaitford Green
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- How easy every part is to reach
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The condition we find in the survey
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Do you need AHU cleaning in Plaitford Green?
No filter stops everything. What gets through settles on coils, fans and the inside of the casing, building up layer by layer.
Clients usually contact us after spotting one of these:
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Air handling units with blocked filters
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Plaitford Green, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Romsey Community Hospital (about 4.9 miles east).
