About our AHU cleaning in Wimbish
We clean air handling units for buildings in Wimbish and across Essex, working to TR19® Air, in offices, schools, hospitals, care homes and retail. Units are cleaned when the site can spare them, often evenings, overnight or weekends. The work covers heating and cooling coils, supply and extract fans and internal panels, and the jobs we see most are dirty fans and fan housings and drain trays holding standing water.
In a village or hamlet like Wimbish, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- The size of the system
- The number of sites or systems
- Travel, parking and unloading
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Why deal with it now?
If people in a building in Wimbish complain about stuffy or smelly air, the AHU is worth looking at. Cleaning it deals with the cause rather than the symptom. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Why Wimbish businesses choose us
- Fully insured
- A written report with photos after every visit
- A fixed price before any work starts
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Wimbish
Is AHU cleaning available in Wimbish?
Yes, Wimbish is covered. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with a few photos of the system.
Can you come to Wimbish after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Wimbish doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Is a quote from photos possible?
In many cases, yes. With good photos, the site type and your last report, we can price many jobs. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Is there a report after cleaning?
Yes. Every clean comes with a TR19® certificate and a photo report. Keep them in the maintenance log.
How often should an air handling unit be cleaned?
There’s no single answer; it comes down to the building and the unit. Regular inspection shows when it’s due, and the report recommends a next date.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
What happens on the day
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. For a village or hamlet like Wimbish, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before photos of each section of the unit.
- We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
- The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
- After pictures are taken and the certificate issued.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Keeping the system healthy
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Report stiff or damaged access doors
- Don’t store bins or materials near the intake
- Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
You receive a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. They belong in the plant or maintenance log.
Regular filter changes are the best protection an AHU has. Once filters clog, dirt starts getting past them.
For landlords and multi-site operators
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.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
