Air handling unit cleaning in Wellhouse, West Berkshire

What the work involves, part by part

Internal casing and panels

Damaged internal linings or loose panels can shed material into the air. We note any we find in the report.

Rooftop and plant room units

Rooftop units take the weather, and intakes can collect leaves and debris. We clean the intake and first stage of filters along with the rest.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we’ll send a fixed quote.

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

What AHU cleaning looks like in Wellhouse

Going by the FSA’s register, there are about 3 schools, colleges and universities serving food in Wellhouse and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Buildings like these often rely on mechanical ventilation, which TR19® Air covers. Wellhouse’s nearest hospital, West Berkshire Community Hospital, is about 3.4 miles south-west. Healthcare buildings depend on clean supply and extract ventilation, and the same applies to surgeries, clinics and care homes. We cover Wellhouse, about 50 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.

For schools like Hermitage Primary School, the holidays are the usual time to inspect and clean ventilation.

What staff can safely do

Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
