AHU cleaning in Salters Heath
The fan pushes every bit of air in the system, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, with the unit switched off and made safe first. The work covers supply and extract fans, drain trays and filter sections, and people most often call us about debris and leaves in the fresh air intake and rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Salters Heath: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Salters Heath?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Salters Heath is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Salters Heath in the summer holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. There are about 2 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Salters Heath. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Some pictures and a quick description of the system plus the address and your hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
What about areas you cannot get to?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
Motors, belts, controls and coils that need repair are a job for your maintenance contractor. We clean the unit and report anything we see that needs attention.
What’s TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the AHU cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Salters Heath.
- 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.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Report water on the plant room floor
Restart the unit with your site team or maintenance contractor once we’ve finished. Keep an eye on the condensate drain over the next few days to make sure it stays clear.
Keep the area around the intake clear. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.
Why it’s worth doing now in Salters Heath
When the unit is clean, less dirt reaches the ducts, so the ducts and grilles stay cleaner between cleans. It also means the next inspection has less to find. A fault that closes a site in a village like Salters Heath affects everyone who depends on it.

What we’re called out for in Salters Heath
Dirt in an AHU matters in two ways: the unit supplies the air people breathe, and a dirty unit has to work harder. For anyone working, learning or staying in a building in Salters Heath, that’s air they breathe for hours at a time.
Clients normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Dust built up on fan impellers
Hospitals such as Park Prewett Hospital (about 2.5 miles south) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Salters Heath are no different.

What staff can safely do
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
