How we handle AHU cleaning in Stubbington
If the units serving a building in Stubbington have only had filter changes for years, the coils, fan and casing can be carrying far more dirt than anyone has seen. A full clean deals with all of it. Typical jobs include plant that has been serviced but not cleaned and dirty coils holding back the airflow, on internal panels, supply and extract fans and drain trays.
In a place like Stubbington, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, where they’re easy to forget. Every unit, large or small, has filters, coils and a drain tray to keep clean.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Why act early in Stubbington
A slimy drain tray only gets worse. Left alone, it can overflow, leak into the plant area or ceiling below and spread smells through the system. Clearing it now is a much smaller job. Light use slows the build-up but doesn’t stop it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. 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 email photos for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Different parts, different methods
Drain trays
Condensate from the coil drips into a tray beneath it. Standing water and slime are removed and the outlet is checked.
Rooftop and plant room units
Smaller units in ceiling voids are part of the work as well. We protect the area below before opening them.
What affects the quote in Stubbington
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Whether several sites go on one quote
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- A few general shots of the system
- Any previous report or certificate
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The postcode and the type of business
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, taking into account how dirty it was. Under TR19® Air the timing is set by inspection and risk, not a fixed calendar.
Don’t let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.
