AHU cleaning in South Ealing, done properly
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. Typical jobs include dirty coils holding back the airflow and odours coming through the supply air, on supply and extract fans, filter sections and dampers and louvres.
London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. For a building in South Ealing, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in South Ealing
How do you handle parking and loading in South Ealing?
London parking can be tight, so details of loading bays and permits help. Night visits tend to make loading easier on London streets.
Can the work in South Ealing be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in South Ealing can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
The work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Large plant can be split over several shifts, so ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email to talk it through.
How much does AHU cleaning cost in South Ealing?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. We fix the price before work begins.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
What AHU cleaning cannot fix
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
- Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Where we work
- Drain trays
- Filter sections
- Dampers and louvres
- Supply and extract fans
- Heating and cooling coils
- Internal panels
How the job changes from site to site
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
Fans and fan sections
Dust on a fan impeller adds weight and wear. A clean fan runs more smoothly.
Why deal with it now?
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in South Ealing can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. Shared walls, risers and roofs mean a problem at one London site seldom stays put.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Why us?
- A fixed price before any work starts
- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- A written report with pictures after each visit
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001

Aftercare tips
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Make sure condensate is draining away
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
The report shows each section of the unit before and after, and note any part we couldn’t get to. Any defects we noticed, like a leaking tray or damaged lining, are listed.
Check drain trays and condensate drains during routine maintenance. Catching a slow drain early stops standing water building up.
What affects the quote in South Ealing
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.
What we need to know
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any previous report or certificate
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in South Ealing is no exception.
- First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
- We take before photos of each section of the unit.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After photos are taken and the certificate issued.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
Ask for a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, pictures of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Advice
When to call us in South Ealing
Cooling coils create condensation, and that water has to go somewhere. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and slime and smells soon follow.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Condensate trays that won’t empty
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near South Ealing, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Ealing Hospital (about 1.7 miles west).
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What paperwork you get at the end
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
AHU cleaning around South Ealing
There are about 54 schools, colleges and universities, about 80 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 13 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of central South Ealing. Classrooms, bedrooms and care spaces are often served by ducted air, and that ductwork collects dust over time. Many London buildings have had their ductwork altered through several fit-outs, so an inspection comes first. About 1.7 miles west of South Ealing is Ealing Hospital, the nearest hospital. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes.
If you manage shops or offices close to Brentford station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning. If you manage a school such as Grange Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.
