AHU cleaning in Shover's Green
A cooling coil drips condensate into a tray that should drain away. When the drain blocks, water sits there and the tray turns slimy, in the airstream that feeds the building. Clearing and cleaning the tray is central to every AHU clean. If you have filters that are clogged or overdue and blocked condensate drains and slimy trays, we can help.
For a building in or near Shover's Green, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Part by part
Filters
Every AHU relies on its filters to catch dust before it reaches the coils. As part of the clean, filters are checked and cleaned or replaced as agreed, and the housing around them is cleaned too.
Rooftop and plant room units
Smaller units in ceiling voids are part of the work as well. The space underneath is protected with sheeting first.
When something else is needed
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
- Faulty motors, drives or bearings
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Shover's Green
The process
There are three stages on the day: 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, which takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Somewhere like Shover's Green, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First the unit is surveyed, from photos or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- With your site team, the unit is switched off and isolated, then the area around it protected.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Clear loose items from the work area
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before we start.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

What affects the quote in Shover's Green
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Parking and loading at the site
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The condition of the system
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Questions from Shover's Green
Do you work in villages like Shover's Green?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Shover's Green is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you work overnight in Shover's Green?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Shover's Green keeps running as normal. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
How long will the unit be out of action?
The work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Bigger units can be phased, so ring 0345 646 2711 or email us to talk it through.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
When should our AHU next be cleaned?
It depends on the unit, the filters and how the building is used. Inspection tells you when cleaning is needed, and the report recommends a next date.
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report musty smells from the vents right away
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
You receive a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. Keep both with the building’s maintenance records.
Make sure access doors and panels on the unit open easily. Sections that are awkward to open are the ones that get skipped.
What happens if it’s left?
Cleaning a unit while it only has light dust is quick. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, particularly where damp has made it stick. In a place like Shover's Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before we start.
