AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Tylerscross
Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. We clean coils with methods suited to their condition, taking care not to damage the fins. We’re often asked to deal with dirty fans and fan housings and plant that has been serviced but not cleaned, across heating and cooling coils, drain trays and filter sections.
For a building in or near Tylerscross, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Part by part
Drain trays
The drain tray collects water from the cooling coil. We clear standing water, clean out slime and check the outlet is draining.
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. They’re cleaned using methods that won’t bend or flatten the fins.
Leave it or put it right?
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Tylerscross can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. A clean tackles the source instead of masking it. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

Common questions in Tylerscross
Can a school’s ventilation in Tylerscross be done out of term time?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 9 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Tylerscross, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can you work in Tylerscross outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Tylerscross can fit around your hours. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
When should our AHU next be cleaned?
TR19® Air takes a risk-based approach, so it depends on inspection rather than a fixed interval. We recommend a next date in each report.
What’s included in an AHU clean?
Every section that collects dirt: filters, coils, tray, fan and panels. The survey confirms what’s in your unit before we quote.
What do you do to protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Can you price the work without visiting?
In many cases, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
How much notice should we give?
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 for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What AHU cleaning can’t fix
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Building management system faults
- Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
- A system that’s undersized for the building
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover

What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:
- Report musty smells from the vents right away
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
When we’ve closed the unit up, it can be restarted with your site team. Keep an eye on the condensate drain over the next few days to make sure it stays clear.
Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air instead of leaving it to guesswork.

Advice
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
