Common questions in Quelm Park
Can a school’s ventilation in Quelm Park be done out of term time?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Quelm Park, the Food Standards Agency lists about 10 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the dates the site is empty.
Can you get to a site in Quelm Park?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What’s included in an AHU clean?
Everything inside the unit that air passes over, from the intake and filters through the coils and fan to the outlet. The photo report shows each section before and after.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How much does AHU cleaning cost?
We don’t publish prices, because the cost 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 work begins.
How we handle AHU cleaning in Quelm Park
Every supply and extract system relies on the air handling unit at its centre: air is pulled in, filtered, conditioned and sent out through the ducts. Anything that collects inside the unit can end up in the rooms it serves, which is why we clean the unit itself, not just the ducts. The work covers internal panels, dampers and louvres and drain trays, and common reasons people get in touch are dirty coils holding back the airflow and air handling units due a clean after building work.
For a building near Quelm Park, the visit is planned around how it’s used, and the journey is planned ahead. The work is the same as in any town: inspect, clean, record.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How we price AHU cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The times the site is available
- Parking and loading at the site
- The condition we find in the survey
- How big the system is
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.
What to send for a quote
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
How it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Visits to a place like Quelm Park are planned ahead, so we arrive with what the survey says the job needs.
- We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Related advice
What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Do you need AHU cleaning in Quelm Park?
An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and some travels further into the unit.
The symptoms we’re asked about most are:
- Units that have only ever had filter changes
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like Heatherwood Hospital (about 3 miles south-east) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
