West Berkshire · Air handling unit cleaning
Wokefield AHU cleaning
Cleaning of air handling units, including filters, coils, drain trays, fans and internal surfaces in Wokefield, surveyed first and signed off with a written report and photos. Call for a fixed quote.
- Air handling units never cleaned inside
- Drain trays holding standing water
- Dust built up on fan impellers
How it 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. After that, the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Somewhere like Wokefield, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We start with a survey of the unit and a fixed quote for the work.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Advice
AHU cleaning in Wokefield, done properly
The fan pushes every bit of air in the system, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. Fan, housing and the surrounding panels are cleaned as part of the job, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. If you’re dealing with drain trays holding standing water and dirty coils holding back the airflow, we can help.
In a village or hamlet like Wokefield, few buildings have mechanical ventilation, but those that do need it inspected and cleaned like any other.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
When to call us in Wokefield
Air handling units are normally tucked away on roofs, in plant rooms or above ceilings and are rarely seen by anyone but maintenance staff. Months can pass without anyone looking inside.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Dirty filters cutting the airflow
- Condensate trays that won’t empty
- Debris and leaves in the fresh air intake
If you run a surgery, dental practice or care home near Wokefield, clean ventilation matters as much to you as to a hospital like Battle Hospital (about 4.6 miles north).
Questions to ask before booking

Part by part
Internal casing and panels
Damaged internal linings or loose panels can shed material into the air. We note any we find in the report.
Fans and fan sections
Before the fan is touched, the unit is shut down and made safe with your site team.
What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- The number of sites or systems
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Any permits to work or inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:

- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.

Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Diary the inspection date recommended in the report
- Make sure condensate is draining away
- Make sure the unit’s access doors open easily
- Do not ignore odours coming through the grilles
You receive a TR19® certificate and a photo report after the clean. They belong in the plant or maintenance log.
Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air, rather than waiting for a problem.
