How we handle AHU cleaning in West Langdon
All the building’s air passes through the fan, so dirt on the impeller and housing gets spread around. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. If you’re dealing with dirty coils holding back the airflow and blocked condensate drains and slimy trays, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as West Langdon, ducted ventilation is usually 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.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in West Langdon knowing what to expect.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before photos of each section of the unit.
- Filters, coils and internal surfaces are cleaned from intake to discharge.
- We finish with the fan section and the drain tray.
- We take after photos and issue the certificate and report.
Before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
How to get a quote
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. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Signs you need AHU cleaning in West Langdon
An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and the finer material travels on.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Air handling units due a clean after building work
- Stale or musty smells from the ventilation
- Dirty coils holding back the airflow
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
If you manage a school such as Langdon Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.
What your quote should include
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
West Langdon questions
Do you work in villages like West Langdon?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and West Langdon is covered. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you come to West Langdon after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Can you fix a faulty AHU?
AHU cleaning is what we offer here, not mechanical repairs. Any faults we notice are recorded for your maintenance team to follow up.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Normally, yes. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we usually come back within one working day. If pictures are not enough, we’ll survey first.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Do you give a certificate after the clean?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. Keep them in the maintenance log.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Where does the waste go?
It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
What affects the quote in West Langdon
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- What state the system is in
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Why act early in West Langdon

Multi-site and managed buildings
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
What the work involves, part by part
Heating and cooling coils
Dirt on a coil slows the air and makes it harder for the coil to heat or cool. A clean gets air moving through the coil properly again.
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. Anything like that is recorded with pictures.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
- Building management system faults
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
