AHU cleaning in Wood's Corner, done properly
Every supply and extract system relies on the air handling unit at its centre: it draws air in, filters it, heats or cools it and pushes it round the ductwork. Whatever builds up inside it travels with that air, which is why we clean the unit itself, not just the ducts. We are often asked to deal with rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs and dust built up on fan impellers, across drain trays, heating and cooling coils and dampers and louvres.
In rural areas, ventilation units are often in roof voids or outbuildings, where filters and drain trays get forgotten.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by AHU cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- The supply and extract ducts, quoted separately
- Controls and BMS settings that run the unit
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

AHU cleaning in Wood's Corner: local notes
Wood's Corner, about 43 miles from central London, is within our usual area. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. Wood's Corner’s nearest hospital, Hellingly Hospital, is about 6 miles south-west. If you run a surgery, clinic or care home, your ventilation deserves the same care as a hospital’s, on a smaller scale.
Healthcare buildings such as Hellingly Hospital, about 6 miles south-west, depend on their ventilation; if you manage a surgery, clinic or care home near Wood's Corner, yours matters too. Wherever a school like Dallington Church of England Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.

Leave it or put it right?
A light clean now is simpler than a heavy one later. Leave it for years and dirt bakes onto coils and casings, particularly where damp has made it stick. In a place like Wood's Corner, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before we start.

Part by part
Heating and cooling coils
Because cooling coils run wet, the dirt on them tends to cling. We clean the coil and the tray beneath it together.
Internal casing and panels
Loose or damaged linings inside a unit can break up into the airstream. Anything like that is recorded with photos.
What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right 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.
For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The size of the system
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
What to send for a quote:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. On site, it takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Wood's Corner before we set off.
- We look at the unit and the plant area during the survey.
- We sheet the area and the unit is isolated.
- Dirt and debris are removed from each section.
- We clean the coils and clear the tray and drain.
- The unit is closed up and handed back, with a report to follow.
Getting ready for the visit
