AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Steven's Crouch
Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. We clean coils with methods suited to their condition, taking care not to damage the fins. Typical jobs include units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover and air handling units with blocked filters, on dampers and louvres, internal panels and heating and cooling coils.
In a village or hamlet like Steven's Crouch, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. For Steven's Crouch, the closest hospital is Bexhill Hospital, roughly 4.4 miles south.

Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
Internal casing and panels
Access doors and panels are opened in turn and closed properly afterwards before the unit is handed back.

The process
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Steven's Crouch knowing what to expect.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Don’t ignore odours coming through the grilles
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
Stick to the filter change schedule, as that does more than anything to keep the unit clean. Log every change so it’s easy to see when the next is due.
Regular inspection under TR19® Air shows when cleaning is due, rather than waiting for a problem.
Questions from Steven's Crouch
Can you get to a site in Steven's Crouch?
Yes, Steven's Crouch is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you work in Steven's Crouch outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Steven's Crouch can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
What do you do with what you remove?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
Typically the clean takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. The shutdown is planned to fit, including evenings or weekends.
How we price AHU cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- What state the system is in
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The scale of the work
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- A few general shots of the system
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: 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.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
