AHU cleaning across Spring Park

What AHU cleaning looks like in Spring Park

There are about 11 schools, colleges and universities and about 33 care, childcare and hospital premises on the FSA’s food hygiene register in Spring Park and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Where buildings like these have air handling units, filters, coils and drain trays need regular attention. The nearest hospital to Spring Park is National Psychosis Unit, about under half a mile north. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too. London plant rooms are often on roofs or in basements reached through occupied floors.

For schools like Forest Academy, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation. National Psychosis Unit, about under half a mile north, is the nearest hospital to Spring Park, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean. If you manage shops or offices close to West Wickham station, a TR19® Air inspection shows whether the ductwork needs cleaning.

AHU cleaning in Spring Park

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 before any cleaning starts. We are often asked to deal with fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years and drain trays holding standing water, on dampers and louvres, supply and extract fans and heating and cooling coils.

London offices and flats often have ductwork added through successive refits, leaving sections that are hard to reach and seldom cleaned. An inspection first shows where cleaning is needed in a building in Spring Park.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

What your team can do, and what needs us

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

What happens on the day

Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. If your building in Spring Park has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.

  1. The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
  2. The area is protected and the unit made safe.
  3. Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.

Before we arrive

  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Getting a quote

To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Spring Park questions

Do you work overnight in Spring Park?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Spring Park doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.

Do you do school ventilation cleaning in Spring Park in the summer holidays?

Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 11 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Spring Park, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with the dates the site is empty.

Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?

Yes. The fan must be stopped and the unit isolated, and we time the work to suit the site.

Can you fix a faulty AHU?

The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with pictures where it helps.

What does AHU cleaning cost?

There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: how big it is, what state it’s in, how we reach it and the working hours. You get a fixed price before we start.

How do you protect the area?

Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.

What happens to the waste?

Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.

Between visits

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
  • Do not store bins or materials near the intake
  • Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
  • Make sure condensate is draining away

Photos in the report cover the filters, coils, drain tray, fan and casing, and note any part we couldn’t get to. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.

Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Spring Park

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

Part by part

Drain trays

Older trays can corrode and start leaking. We record their condition with pictures so you can decide on any repairs.

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.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning

Your quote is based on your site. We consider:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • The number of sites or systems
  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle

Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Problems your staff have spotted
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

When something else is needed

Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
  • Ventilation that was badly designed in the first place
  • Dirty ducts beyond the unit itself

If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think.
