About our AHU cleaning in Snoll Hatch
All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dirt on the impeller and housing gets spread around. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. The work covers filter sections, drain trays and heating and cooling coils, and the jobs we see most are fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Do you need AHU cleaning in Snoll Hatch?
Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and slime and smells soon follow.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
Wherever a school like East Peckham Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
What your quote should include
- What records you’ll receive afterwards
- When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

Why act early in Snoll Hatch
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Snoll Hatch can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. A planned visit to Snoll Hatch is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will explain what it covers.

How the visit works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the AHU cleaning, clear away and hand over the paperwork.

- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.

Keeping the system healthy
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Report musty smells from the vents right away
- Report water on the plant room floor
The report suggests a date for the next inspection or clean, taking into account how dirty it was. TR19® Air is risk-based, so the interval depends on the unit and how the building is used.
Check drain trays and condensate drains during routine maintenance. Catching a slow drain early stops standing water building up.
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Where the site is and how we reach it
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

To speed up the quote, send us:
- The postcode and the type of business

- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price so you know the cost before we start.
