About our AHU cleaning in Woldingham Garden Village

An AHU clean is a thorough examination and treatment of the unit. Every section is opened, cleaned and photographed, so the report shows exactly what was done. If you are dealing with units that have only ever had filter changes and air handling units with blocked filters, we can put it right, from supply and extract fans, heating and cooling coils and dampers and louvres onwards.

For a building in or near Woldingham Garden Village, 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.

Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What happens if it’s left?

Dirt left in an air handling unit doesn’t stay in the unit. It moves on into the ductwork and out into the rooms, so cleaning the ducts without the unit only goes so far. A planned visit to Woldingham Garden Village is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

When to call us in Woldingham Garden Village

Mechanical servicing keeps a unit running, but it doesn’t always include cleaning the inside. So a unit can be well maintained and still dirty.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs
  • Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
  • Condensate trays that will not empty
  • Fan sections that haven’t been cleaned in years

If you run an office near Woldingham station, its supply ductwork can gather dust for years before anyone looks inside.

  • If they look at the system before pricing
  • When they can work, and whether that is outside your opening hours

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

Different parts, different methods

Drain trays

Standing water in a tray sits right where the air passes. We clean it and note if the slope or the drain needs attention.

Fans and fan sections

Build-up on fan blades can upset the balance and add wear. Cleaning keeps it running as intended.

Woldingham Garden Village questions

Can you work in Woldingham Garden Village outside opening hours?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. Your customers, staff or residents in Woldingham Garden Village needn’t be disturbed. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.

Can ventilation in schools around Woldingham Garden Village be cleaned out of term?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Around Woldingham Garden Village, the Food Standards Agency lists about 4 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.

Do you cover Woldingham Garden Village?

Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, Woldingham Garden Village included.

What should I send you?

Just the basics: where it is, what kind of site, when it’s open and the access. Photos and the last report help too. Then call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Which sectors do you work in?

All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.

How long will the unit be out of action?

The work takes one overnight shift for many single units, with bigger plant phased. Large plant can be split over several shifts, and you can call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line to plan it.

Do you repair air handling units?

Our AHU work is cleaning rather than mechanical repair. If we spot a fault, we note it in the report so your maintenance contractor can deal with it.

What do you do with what you remove?

We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.

What your team can do, and what needs us

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

Keeping the system healthy

Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air
  • Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
  • Change filters on schedule and log each change
  • Plan the next inspection before the last report gets filed away

The report shows each section of the unit before and after, and note any part we couldn’t get to. It also notes faults we spotted, such as damaged panels or a blocked drain.

Have the unit inspected regularly, in line with the risk-based approach of TR19® Air, rather than waiting for a problem.

How the visit works

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Woldingham Garden Village, let us know and we will plan around it.

  1. First we agree when the unit can be switched off, including evenings or weekends.
  2. We take before pictures of each section of the unit.
  3. We work through the unit from the intake to the outlet.
  4. The fan and drain tray are cleaned and the drain checked.
  5. We take after photos and issue the certificate and report.

How to prepare

  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
