FAQs for Touchen-end
Do you work in villages like Touchen-end?
Yes. Touchen-end is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you come to Touchen-end after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Touchen-end can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Will the ventilation be off while you clean?
Yes. We can’t clean a running unit, so it’s switched off and made safe first. The shutdown is planned with whoever runs the building.
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.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

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 does not spread.
About our AHU cleaning in Touchen-end
An AHU clean is a thorough examination and treatment of the unit. Every section is opened, cleaned and photographed, so you can see the unit’s condition for yourself. Common call-outs are for dirty fans and fan housings and leaves and litter drawn into the unit, on drain trays, supply and extract fans and filter sections.
Work in a small place like Touchen-end starts with agreeing access and timings.
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 to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

There are about 4 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Touchen-end. Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. About 27 miles out from central London, Touchen-end is part of the South East area we work across. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Touchen-end’s nearest hospital, St Mark's Hospital, is about 2.9 miles north.

Different parts, different methods
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.
Drain trays
Condensate from the coil drips into a tray beneath it. Standing water and slime are removed and the outlet is checked.

When something else is needed
AHU cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover
- Heating and cooling coils
- Dampers and louvres
- Internal panels
- Drain trays
- Supply and extract fans
- Filter sections
Why deal with it now?
Cleaning a unit while it only has light dust is quick. Years of build-up make the job longer and harder, particularly where damp has made it stick. In a small place like Touchen-end, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t ignore odours coming through the grilles
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Note any water around the unit or leaks below it
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
Stick to the filter change schedule, because good filters protect everything downstream. Log every change so it’s easy to see when the next is due.
Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Overloaded filters let more dirt through to the coils and fan.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased.
