How we handle AHU cleaning in Town Row
A cooling coil drips condensate into a tray that should drain away. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, right in the path of the air going into the building. Cleaning and clearing it is a key part of the job. The work covers drain trays, dampers and louvres and internal panels, and the jobs we see most are units that have only ever had filter changes and filters that are clogged or overdue.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
What affects the quote in Town Row
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- What state the system is in
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How big the system is
What you pay depends on the size of the system, 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
We can often survey from photos. Try to include:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The site address and the type of premises
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

What we are called out for in Town Row
Air handling units are normally tucked away on roofs, in plant rooms or above ceilings, so they’re easy to forget about. Months can pass without anyone looking inside.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Dirty fans and fan housings
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
Hospitals such as Crowborough War Memorial Hospital (about 3.3 miles west) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Town Row are no different.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Town Row
Can you do AHU cleaning in Town Row?
Yes, we work in Town Row and the places around it. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with a few details of the site.
Can you get to a site in Town Row?
Yes, Town Row is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Do you do ventilation duct cleaning too?
Yes. Ventilation ductwork cleaning to TR19® Air is part of what we do. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can survey both on the same visit.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Only a few details: the address, the site type, your opening hours and how we reach the system. Photos and the last report help too. After that, simply give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Town Row can be planned properly.
- We start with a survey of the unit and a fixed quote for the work.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after photos.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Clear the space around the work
Get a fixed quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

Part by part
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. The filter section is cleaned so new or cleaned filters sit properly.
Fans and fan sections
Every bit of air passes the fan, so a dirty fan sends dirt downstream. We clean the impeller, housing and surrounding section.

Leave it or put it right?
If people in a building in Town Row complain about stuffy or smelly air, the AHU is worth looking at. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Town Row rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
