How we handle AHU cleaning in Ufton Nervet
Where a building in Ufton Nervet has had little more than filter changes, there may be dirt on the coils, fan and casing that nobody has looked at. A full AHU clean takes in the whole unit. The work covers filter sections, supply and extract fans and dampers and louvres, and the jobs we see most are dust-coated heating and cooling coils and air handling units with blocked filters.
Somewhere as small as Ufton Nervet, ducted ventilation is normally limited to a school, a care home, a surgery or a converted business building, wherever there is one, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

For landlords and multi-site operators
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
The process
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Somewhere as small as Ufton Nervet, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- The survey covers the unit, its access and how it can be shut down.
- The area is protected and the unit made safe.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- Coils and trays are cleaned and the condensate drain cleared.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
Getting ready for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Store the TR19 paperwork where auditors can find it
- Stick to the filter change plan
- Keep the area around the fresh air intake clear
- Report musty smells from the vents straight away
We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, based on what we found. TR19® Air is risk-based, so the interval depends on the unit and how the building is used.
Keep the unit’s doors and panels in working order. If a section is hard to get into, it tends not to get checked.
How we price AHU cleaning
You will get a fixed price before work begins. It takes into account:
- The condition of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site rules, permits and inductions
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- A few general shots of the system
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
What staff can safely do
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. That’s our job.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
