AHU cleaning in Winchfield Hurst
Drain trays under cooling coils are meant to empty. If the outlet blocks, standing water and slime build up, in the airstream that feeds the building. Clearing and cleaning the tray is central to every AHU clean. The work covers internal panels, supply and extract fans and drain trays, and the jobs we see most are units that have only ever had filter changes and dirty fans and fan housings.
In a village or hamlet like Winchfield Hurst, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but where it’s fitted, it needs the same inspection and cleaning as anywhere.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Part by part
Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. The filter section is cleaned so new or cleaned filters sit properly.
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. They’re cleaned using methods that will not bend or flatten the fins.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Common questions in Winchfield Hurst
Do you clean school ventilation in Winchfield Hurst in the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 2 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Winchfield Hurst, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will fit the work in.
Can you work in Winchfield Hurst outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Winchfield Hurst doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which accreditations do you hold?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We’re fully insured and have been trading since 2009.
Can you price the work without visiting?
Yes, for many jobs. Send a few wide photos plus close-ups of panels, filters or grilles, and a fixed quote normally follows within one working day. Some sites still need a visit, and we will say so.
Do you give a certificate after the clean?
Yes, a TR19® certificate and a photo report. It includes a recommended date for the next check.
Do you cover Winchfield Hurst?
Yes. We work in Winchfield Hurst and the rest of Hampshire, within our South East and London area. To book, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Does the AHU have to be shut down for cleaning?
Yes. We can’t clean a running unit, so it’s switched off and made safe first. We agree the timing with your site team.
How the visit works
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes a single shift for a typical unit, longer for large or heavily soiled ones. Somewhere as small as Winchfield Hurst, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Each section is cleaned of dust, debris and slime.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- We close every panel, hand the unit back and send the report and certificate.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Related advice
What we’re called out for in Winchfield Hurst
An overdue filter loads up with dirt, which cuts the airflow and can let air slip round the filter. Then the rest of the unit takes the load.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- Condensate trays that will not empty
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Plant that needs cleaning after a refit
- Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Winchfield Hurst, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Fleet Community Hospital (about 1.7 miles east).
What your quote should include
- Whether the quote is based on a survey or pictures
- Whether VAT is included
- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- How they set the interval to the next visit
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
You will get a fixed price before we start. It takes into account:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Helping us quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
What happens if it’s left?
Stuffy rooms and stale smells in a building in Winchfield Hurst can sometimes be traced back to the AHU. A clean tackles the source instead of masking it. If the system at a site near Winchfield Hurst fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
