AHU cleaning in Wix Green, done properly
We clean the parts of the unit where dirt and moisture gather: the filter section, heating and cooling coils, drain trays, fan and casing. You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report showing the unit before and after. The work covers internal panels, drain trays and heating and cooling coils, and people most often call us about units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover and condensate trays that won’t empty.
For a building in or near Wix Green, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How the job changes from site to site
Heating and cooling coils
A dirty coil holds back the air and makes heating and cooling less effective. A clean gets air moving through the coil properly again.
Filters
Dirty filters cut airflow and let dirt slip past their frames. We clean the frames and rails so the filters sit tight.
Questions from Wix Green
Can the work in Wix Green be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Wix Green needn’t be disturbed. When you call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you cover smaller places like Wix Green?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Wix Green included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
What should I send you?
A short description and a few photos, with the address and opening hours. If we need more, we’ll ask.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
The clean includes noting faults, but repairs sit with your maintenance contractor, with the details in the report.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
How much does AHU cleaning cost in Wix Green?
We do not publish prices, because the cost depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before any work starts.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, either from pictures and details you send or on a site visit. Then you get a fixed quote.

The process
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the AHU cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. A few photos of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Wix Green.
- We survey the unit from pictures or on site and agree what’s included.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- Filters are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- We clean out the drain tray and make sure it drains.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Getting 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 we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Check the drain tray is emptying during routine visits
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away
- Report musty smells from the vents straight away
The ducts served by the unit may need attention too. A clean unit feeding dirty ducts only solves half the problem, and we can quote for both.
Do not let leaves, litter or stored materials build up near the fresh air intake. Anything around the intake is likely to be drawn in.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Fixed quotes for AHU cleaning in Wix Green
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- How big the system is
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Any permits to work or inductions
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before work begins.

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it

Leave it or put it right?
A clogged coil or dirty fan makes the unit work harder for the same airflow. That means more wear on the motor and rooms that feel less fresh, and a clean on your terms beats a breakdown on nobody’s. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Wix Green is calmer for everyone.
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
