When the unit is clean, less dirt reaches the ducts, so the whole system stays cleaner for longer. It also means the next inspection has less to find. Choosing the date yourself beats having a fault choose it for you.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before work begins.

AHU cleaning in Seven Sisters
Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, from a small ceiling-mounted unit to a large rooftop plant. Every job starts with a survey, from pictures or on site, followed by a fixed quote, so you know where you stand. Typical jobs include air handling units with blocked filters and blocked condensate drains and slimy trays, across filter sections, dampers and louvres and drain trays.
London buildings tend to keep their plant on the roof or below ground, so ventilation cleaning in Seven Sisters is usually planned out of hours. Parking and loading are agreed with the building in advance.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Security desks and permits-to-work are routine in London, so let us know what your building in Seven Sisters needs from us.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
How to prepare
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know about parking and loading

Different parts, different methods
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.
Filters
Filters are the first line of defence in the unit. As part of the clean, filters are checked and cleaned or replaced as agreed, and the housing around them is cleaned too.
Ventilation in Seven Sisters buildings

Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. Seven Sisters’s nearest hospital, North Middlesex University Hospital, is about 2.1 miles north. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes.

Do you need AHU cleaning in Seven Sisters?
Cooling coils create condensation, and that water has to go somewhere. If the drain tray outlet blocks or the tray does not fall properly, water stands in it, and slime and smells soon follow.
What we are most often called out for:
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Dust built up on fan impellers
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
If you manage shops or offices close to Seven Sisters station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning.
