Pyecombe AHU cleaning
One call covers air handling unit cleaning in Pyecombe: survey, fixed quote, work and sign-off. Fully insured, with CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001.
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
About our AHU cleaning in Pyecombe
We clean air handling units for buildings in Pyecombe and across West Sussex, working to TR19® Air, in offices, schools, hospitals, care homes and retail. Units are cleaned when the site can spare them, often evenings, overnight or weekends. Typical jobs include plant that needs cleaning after a refit and air handling units with blocked filters, across drain trays, filter sections and dampers and louvres.
In a village or hamlet like Pyecombe, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and 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 have been trading since 2009.

Pyecombe questions
Do you cover Pyecombe for AHU cleaning?
Yes, Pyecombe is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with a few details of the site.
Is Pyecombe within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How much notice should we give?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
How much does AHU cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before we start.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
Typically the clean takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. We plan the shutdown around that, including evenings or weekends.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. You get a TR19® certificate plus before and after pictures. They’re worth keeping with the plant records.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
Motors, belts, controls and coils that need repair are a job for your maintenance contractor. We will flag anything we notice during the clean.

Leave it or put it right?
If people in a building in Pyecombe complain about stuffy or smelly air, the AHU is worth looking at. A clean tackles the source instead of masking it. A fault that closes a site in a village like Pyecombe affects everyone who depends on it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What you get with us

What AHU cleaning looks like in Pyecombe
The nearest hospital to Pyecombe is The Dene Hospital, about 4.6 miles north. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that is as true in a care home as in a hospital. We cover Pyecombe, about 42 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like The Dene Hospital (about 4.6 miles north) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts. Classrooms and halls at schools such as Downlands Community School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.
Pyecombe is about 4 miles south of Burgess Hill, in West Sussex. Whether your site is in the middle of Pyecombe or further out, we cover AHU cleaning for every kind of premises, from small sites to large estates. Our area takes in 371 places across West Sussex, large and small.
Here we cover the BN45 postcode area for AHU cleaning. Whether your site is on London Road, School Lane and Church Hill or a nearby road, our technicians can take on the work. Other places close to Pyecombe include Saddlescombe (1 mile south-west), Waterhall (2 miles south), Patcham (3 miles south), Westdene (3 miles south) and Hollingbury (3 miles south-east). Within a short drive, we also cover Crawley (15 miles north), Horsham (13 miles north-west), Worthing (12 miles south-west), Haywards Heath (7 miles north-east), Burgess Hill (4 miles north) and Shoreham-by-Sea (6 miles south-west).
Local landmarks in Pyecombe
For rail, the closest station is Hassocks station, about 1.9 miles north-east. Nearby you’ll also find Clayton Castle (1 mile north-east) and The Budding Foundation Museum of Gardening (1.7 miles north). Not far away are Wolstonbury Hill and Ladies Mile.
Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can quote for both.
Make the drain tray part of every maintenance visit. A drain that is cleared early never gets to the slime stage.
How we price AHU cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Any permits to work or inductions
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Asking for a quote
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Any previous report or certificate
For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few photos and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
What the work involves, part by part
Rooftop and plant room units
Units outside are exposed to weather and windblown debris. The intake section gets particular attention.
Drain trays
The drain tray collects water from the cooling coil. We clear standing water, clean out slime and check the outlet is draining.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Pyecombe.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after photos.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
