AHU cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Woollensbrook
The fan pushes every bit of air in the system, so dust on its blades and housing ends up in the airstream. We clean the fan section along with the rest of the unit, once the unit has been shut down and isolated. The work covers internal panels, supply and extract fans and dampers and louvres, and common reasons people get in touch are air handling units due a clean after building work and dirty coils holding back the airflow.
For a building in or near Woollensbrook, access is agreed in advance and the visit is planned around the journey.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What your team can do, and what needs us
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

Different parts, different methods
Filters
What’s on the filters is a good clue to what’s further in. They’re photographed before and after for your records.
Fans and fan sections
Dust on a fan impeller adds weight and wear. Cleaning keeps it running as intended.

Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off.

When to call us in Woollensbrook
An AHU’s intake draws in outdoor air and everything in it: dust, pollen, leaves and debris. The intake section and first filters take the brunt, and some travels further into the unit.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Dust-coated heating and cooling coils
- Condensate trays that will not empty
- Air handling units with blocked filters
- Intake sections clogged with outdoor debris
Wherever a school like Westfield Community Primary School has ducted ventilation, a half-term visit keeps the work out of lesson time.
