AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Storrington
All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. We’re often asked to deal with plant that needs cleaning after a refit and leaves and litter drawn into the unit, on internal panels, heating and cooling coils and supply and extract fans.
In a smaller place like Storrington, buildings with ducted ventilation are more likely to be a school, a surgery, a care home or a small business unit than an office block. Smaller systems still gather dust and need inspecting.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

How the job changes from site to site
Rooftop and plant room units
Many AHUs sit on roofs or in plant rooms with limited access. Access is planned during the survey so the quote reflects it.
Heating and cooling coils
Dirt on a coil slows the air and makes it harder for the coil to heat or cool. A clean gets air moving through the coil properly again.
Common problems we fix in Storrington
Most units live out of sight on roofs, in plant rooms or in ceiling voids, so they’re easy to forget about. Months can pass without anyone looking inside.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
- Plant that needs cleaning after a refit
For schools like Storrington Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.
What your quote should include
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether they’re fully insured
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether they recommend a next date
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Storrington questions
Can the work in Storrington be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Storrington keeps running as normal. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can ventilation in schools around Storrington be cleaned out of term?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Storrington, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Do you work in Storrington?
Yes. We work in Storrington and the rest of West Sussex, within our South East and London area. To book, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
Is a quote from photos possible?
In many cases, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Where we can’t see enough, we arrange a survey.
How far ahead should we book?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
How often do AHUs need cleaning?
TR19® Air takes a risk-based approach, so it depends on inspection rather than a fixed interval. We recommend a next date in each report.
Why deal with it now?
Facilities teams are often asked for evidence that the ventilation is looked after. A TR19® certificate and photo report give you that, for audits, tenants or your own peace of mind. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to Storrington at a time that suits you.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

What affects the quote in Storrington
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How easy every part is to reach
- The times the site is available
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your last certificate, test record or report
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the AHU cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Tell us when your site near Storrington is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- With your site team, the unit is switched off and isolated, then the area around it protected.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Getting a quote
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you will usually have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
