About our AHU cleaning in Wishanger Common
Coils are where a lot of the dirt ends up. A coated coil restricts airflow and makes the unit work harder. Coils are cleaned carefully, with methods chosen so the fins are not flattened. If you have units that have only ever had filter changes and intake sections clogged with outdoor debris, we can put it right, from filter sections, drain trays and heating and cooling coils onwards.
For a building in or near Wishanger Common, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey, and the ventilation is inspected, cleaned and recorded the same as anywhere.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What AHU cleaning looks like in Wishanger Common
About 3.6 miles south-west of Wishanger Common is Chase Community Hospital, the nearest hospital. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that’s as true in a care home as in a hospital.

- We agree a shutdown window that suits the building.
- We take before pictures 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.

Honest limits
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
- Damaged coils beyond cleaning
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What the work covers
- Dampers and louvres
- Internal panels
- Filter sections
- Supply and extract fans
- Heating and cooling coils
- Drain trays
Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Change filters on schedule and log each change
- Clear leaves and litter away from the intake
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
We recommend when the unit should next be inspected or cleaned, based on what we found. TR19® Air is risk-based, so the interval depends on the unit and how the building is used.
Don’t let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. Anything around the intake is likely to be drawn in.

Will you come out to Wishanger Common?
Yes, Wishanger Common is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Every site has its own report.
What information do you need?
A short description and a few pictures plus the address and your hours. If we need more, we will ask.
What accreditations do you have?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

How much does AHU cleaning cost?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
Do you repair air handling units?
The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with the details in the report.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wishanger Common
Cleaning a unit while it only has light dust is quick. Years of build-up make the job longer and harder, especially where there’s been moisture. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Wishanger Common rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Parking and loading at the site
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The condition of the system
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any previous report or certificate
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
To get a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We normally come back within one working day.
