AHU Cleaning in Temple Ewell
Our technicians work in Temple Ewell on cleaning of air handling units, including filters, coils, drain trays, fans and internal surfaces. Out-of-hours visits, a fixed quote and a written report with pictures as standard.
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Keep filter changes on time and recorded
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
If the ductwork hasn’t been cleaned, consider it next. Cleaning the unit and ducts together gives the best result, and we can survey both.
Keep the area around the intake clear. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.
AHU cleaning in Temple Ewell, done properly
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: filters, coils, drain trays, fans and the internal panels. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. The work covers heating and cooling coils, filter sections and drain trays, and common reasons people get in touch are units that have only ever had filter changes and debris and leaves in the fresh air intake.
Somewhere as small as Temple Ewell, ducted ventilation is usually limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Multi-site and managed buildings
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: 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, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
What AHU cleaning can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
- A system that’s undersized for the building
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on in Temple Ewell

What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
How the job changes from site to site
Drain trays
Standing water in a tray sits right where the air passes. We clean it and note if the slope or the drain needs attention.
Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
