AHU cleaning in Woodmancote, done properly
We clean air handling units for buildings in Woodmancote and across West Sussex, working to TR19® Air, in offices, schools, hospitals, care homes and retail. The work is timed around when the system can be switched off, including evenings, nights and weekends. If you are dealing with blocked condensate drains and slimy trays and coils clogged with dust and debris, we can help.
Rural buildings with mechanical ventilation, such as care homes and country hotels, often keep their units in roof spaces or outbuildings, which makes them easy to overlook.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

When something else is needed
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
- Ductwork downstream of the unit, which is a separate clean
- A system that is undersized for the building
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Where we work
- Dampers and louvres
- Drain trays
- Heating and cooling coils
- Internal panels
- Filter sections
- Supply and extract fans
Why act early in Woodmancote
A clean unit feeds cleaner air into the ductwork, so the ducts and grilles stay cleaner between cleans. It also means the next inspection has less to find. A fault that closes a site in a village like Woodmancote affects everyone who depends on it.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Why book with us
- We’re fully insured
- Member of BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease

- Trading since 2009
The process
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Woodmancote and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First the unit is surveyed, from photos or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- We arrange the shutdown with your staff and sheet the area.
- Filters, coils, fan section and casing are cleaned in turn.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- We close up the unit and send the certificate and before and after photos.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Tell us where we can park and unload
Ask for a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.

When to call us in Woodmancote
Wherever there’s a cooling coil, there’s condensate. If the drain tray outlet blocks or the tray doesn’t fall properly, water stands in it, and that is where slime and odours start.
Clients typically contact us when they notice something like this:
- Coils clogged with dust and debris
- Filters that are clogged or overdue
- Blocked condensate drains and slimy trays
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
If you run an office near Southbourne station, its supply ductwork can gather dust for years before anyone looks inside.
What to look for in a quote
- What paperwork you get at the end
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed

Your questions about AHU cleaning in Woodmancote
Can you get to a site in Woodmancote?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Woodmancote is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can the work in Woodmancote be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Woodmancote needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
How long does it take to clean an air handling unit?
Cleaning takes anything from half a day for one small unit to several shifts for a plant room full of them. Bigger units can be phased, so phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos to talk it through.
What about areas you cannot get to?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
What does AHU cleaning cost?
The cost depends on the size of the system, its condition, access and timing. Ask us for a fixed quote, normally ready within one working day.
Do you need to switch the unit off?
Yes. We cannot clean a running unit, so it’s switched off and made safe first. We agree the timing with your site team.
Is a quote from photos possible?
Often, yes. Photos of the system and the access, plus your opening hours and last report, are often enough. Larger or hidden systems need a survey on site first.
When should our AHU next be cleaned?
Under TR19® Air, cleaning is led by inspection and risk rather than a set calendar. Each report suggests when the unit should next be looked at.

What affects the cost of AHU cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- How easy every part is to reach
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The postcode and the type of business
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

What the work involves, part by part
Heating and cooling coils
Coil fins are close together and catch the dust the filters miss. They’re cleaned using methods that won’t bend or flatten the fins.
Rooftop and plant room units
Units on roofs and in plant rooms can be awkward to reach. Access is planned during the survey so the quote reflects it.
