AHU cleaning across Turners Hill

What staff can safely do

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

AHU cleaning in Turners Hill, done properly

If the units serving a building in Turners Hill have only had filter changes for years, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. If you’re dealing with filters that are clogged or overdue and odours coming through the supply air, we can put it right, from supply and extract fans, internal panels and dampers and louvres onwards.

Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.

We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Different parts, different methods

Rooftop and plant room units

Rooftop units take the weather, and intakes can collect leaves and debris. The intake section gets particular attention.

Internal casing and panels

The inside walls and floor of the casing collect dust and debris. Each section is cleaned from the intake through to the outlet.

When to call us in Turners Hill

Cooling coils create condensation, and that water has to go somewhere. If the drain tray outlet blocks or the tray doesn’t fall properly, water stands in it, and slime and smells soon follow.

Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
  • Plant that has been serviced but not cleaned
  • Air handling units due a clean after building work
  • Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays

Hospitals such as Queen Victoria Hospital (about 4.3 miles north-east) show how much a building can rely on clean ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites near Turners Hill are no different.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they’re fully insured
  • Whether a written report and photos are included
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Whether a survey comes first

Questions to ask before booking

Turners Hill buildings and their air

About 4.3 miles north-east of Turners Hill is Queen Victoria Hospital, the nearest hospital. Hospitals show how much a building can rely on its ventilation, and smaller healthcare sites rely on theirs too. Turners Hill, about 27 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.

Wherever a school like Turners Hill CofE Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.

What AHU cleaning cannot fix

We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
  • Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
  • Airflow problems caused by the system’s design

If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.

Where we work

  • Filter sections
  • Supply and extract fans
  • Internal panels
  • Drain trays
  • Heating and cooling coils
  • Dampers and louvres

What happens on the day

Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Turners Hill knowing what to expect.

  1. We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
  2. The area is protected and the unit made safe.
  3. Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
  4. Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
  5. We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.

Before we arrive

  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Let us know about parking and loading

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

Cleaning a unit while it only has light dust is quick. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, particularly where damp has made it stick. A fault that closes a site in a village like Turners Hill affects everyone who depends on it.

One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning

We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • The times the site is available
  • The size of the system
  • Travel, parking and unloading

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What to send for a quote

When you call or email, it’s useful to have:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
  • Any previous report or certificate

There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Turners Hill

What is TR19?

How much does AHU cleaning cost?

The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Call for a fixed quote and we will typically reply within one working day.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.

What information do you need?

The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, plus photos of the system and your last certificate or report if you have one.

Is a quote from pictures possible?

Yes, where the photos show enough. Otherwise, we book a survey at a time that suits the site, and the quote follows that.

Will you repair the fan or motor?

The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with the details in the report.
