About our AHU cleaning in Wigley
Drain trays under cooling coils are meant to empty. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, right in the path of the air going into the building. Cleaning and clearing it is a key part of the job. If you have leaves and litter drawn into the unit and dust built up on fan impellers, we can help, from supply and extract fans, filter sections and dampers and louvres onwards.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Wigley
Will you come out to Wigley?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Wigley included. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you work at weekends in Wigley?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
How much does AHU cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. We fix the price before any work starts.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and we usually come back within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.
What about areas you cannot get to?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we’re fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?
Yes. Ductwork is cleaned through access panels, and any sections we cannot reach are noted in the report, with new panels fitted where necessary.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes, both a certificate and a report with pictures. It includes a recommended date for the next check.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Honest limits
We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Leaking heating or cooling coils
- Problems with the unit’s controls or sensors
- Mechanical faults with motors, belts or bearings
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly.

How the job changes from site to site
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.
Fans and fan sections
Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. Cleaning keeps it running as intended.
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Report water on the plant room floor
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Keep inspection doors on the unit in good order
The report shows each section of the unit before and after, along with anything we couldn’t reach. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.
Keep the area around the intake clear. What’s near the intake ends up in the unit.
Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Wigley
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The number of sites or systems
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
There’s no standard 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, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
