Sherington AHU cleaning
AHU cleaning for Sherington, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Out-of-hours visits and 24/7 emergency callout.

- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
How we price AHU cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Where the site is and how we reach it
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The site address and the type of premises
- Problems your staff have spotted
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
AHU cleaning in Sherington, done properly
All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, with the unit switched off and made safe first. The work covers dampers and louvres, heating and cooling coils and filter sections, and the jobs we see most are leaves and litter drawn into the unit and plant that needs cleaning after a refit.
In a village or hamlet like Sherington, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What happens on the day
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, 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 Sherington.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- Before cleaning, each section is photographed.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Clear the space around the work
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Managing agents and facilities teams in Sherington
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

What we’re called out for in Sherington
No filter stops everything. The fine dust that passes the filters lands on the coils, the fan and the internal panels, a little more each month.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Drain trays holding standing water
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
- Dirty fans and fan housings
Wherever a school like Sherington Church of England School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.

Can you price the work without visiting?

Can you fix a faulty AHU?
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.

Will the ventilation be off while you clean?
Yes. The unit has to be shut down and isolated before it’s opened. The shutdown is planned with whoever runs the building.
Can we book visits on a schedule?

Part by part
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. We note any we find in the report.
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. We clean them with care so the fins are not damaged.
When something else is needed
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
- Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.

Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
Restart the unit with your site team or maintenance contractor once we have finished. Check the drain tray is emptying over the first few days to make sure it stays clear.
Do not let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. Anything around the intake is likely to be drawn in.
