How we handle AHU cleaning in Roe Green
Heating and cooling coils trap dust that gets past the filters. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. Coils are cleaned carefully, with methods chosen so the fins aren’t flattened. If you’re dealing with dirty coils holding back the airflow and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Roe Green, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

How the job changes from site to site
Fans and fan sections
The fan moves all of the unit’s air, so dirt on it gets spread around. The impeller, its housing and the fan chamber are cleaned.
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. We clean them with care so the fins aren’t damaged.

What happens if it’s left?
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Roe Green can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
You won’t find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in Roe Green
Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. If the drain tray outlet blocks or the tray doesn’t fall properly, water stands in it, and that’s where slime and odours start.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Condensate trays that won’t empty
- Dust built up on fan impellers
School buildings such as Sandon Junior Mixed and Infant School are usually done in the holidays, so classrooms aren’t disturbed.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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. Leave those to us.
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.
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Report musty smells from the vents straight away
When we’ve closed the unit up, it can be restarted with your site team. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to confirm water is draining away.
Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.
