AHU cleaning in Well Hill, done properly
Drain trays under cooling coils are meant to empty. When the drain blocks, water sits there and the tray turns slimy, right in the path of the air going into the building. Cleaning and clearing it is a key part of the job. If you’re dealing with plant that has been serviced but not cleaned and condensate trays that won’t empty, we can help.
London offices and flats often have ductwork added through successive refits, leaving sections that are hard to reach and seldom cleaned. An inspection first shows where cleaning is needed in a building in Well Hill.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What else we do in Well Hill
The process
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the AHU cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. On site, the work takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. If your building in Well Hill has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- First the unit is surveyed, from photos or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Let us know about parking and loading

Common problems we fix in Well Hill
Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. A blocked outlet or a badly sloped tray leaves standing water, and slime and smells soon follow.
Look out for these warning signs:
- Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years
- Odours coming through the supply air
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Chelsfield Primary School are easiest to work in when pupils are away.
Before booking anyone
- What hours they’ll be on site
- How VAT is shown on the quote
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
Multi-site and managed buildings
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Leave it or put it right?
Tenants, auditors and owners may want proof that the air handling plant is kept clean. Our certificate and photo report give you clear evidence, ready to show anyone who asks. It’s better booked as a planned job in Well Hill than handled as an emergency.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Well Hill: your questions answered
Can parking be tricky for a job in Well Hill?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Well Hill makes the visit easier to plan. Night visits tend to make loading easier on London streets.
Can you work in Well Hill outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Well Hill needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
What is TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Are you accredited?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
How much does AHU cleaning cost?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before work begins.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. A fixed quote follows.
Do you need to switch the unit off?
Yes, for the time we are working on it. We can work evenings, overnight or at weekends so the building is not left without ventilation when it’s busy.
