AHU cleaning in Woolstone
Think of an AHU clean as a full check-up for the ventilation. Every section is opened, cleaned and photographed, so you can see the unit’s condition for yourself. If you’re dealing with dust built up on fan impellers and air handling units due a clean after building work, we can put it right, from internal panels, supply and extract fans and heating and cooling coils onwards.
In a place like Woolstone, air handling units are often tucked into roof spaces or small plant rooms, where they’re easy to forget. Filters, coils and drain trays need attention whatever the size of the unit.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How we price AHU cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Parking and loading at the site
- How many systems or sites are involved
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How big the system is
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- A few general shots of the system
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
What a clean won’t put right
We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Coils that are corroded or leaking and need replacing
- Airflow problems caused by the system’s design
- Breakdowns that need a mechanical engineer
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on in Woolstone
- Heating and cooling coils
- Internal panels
- Drain trays
- Supply and extract fans
- Dampers and louvres
- Filter sections
How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes half a day to a full day per unit, with large plant planned over several shifts. Tell us when your site near Woolstone is quiet and the visit will be booked for then.
- 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 are dealt with as agreed, and the coils, fan and casing cleaned.
- Drain trays are cleared and cleaned and the outlet checked.
- You get a TR19® certificate and a photo report.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
How to get a quote

Related advice
Do you need AHU cleaning in Woolstone?
Most units live out of sight on roofs, in plant rooms or in ceiling voids and are rarely seen by anyone but maintenance staff. It’s easy for a long time to go by without anyone opening the panels.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Units needing a clean before a new tenant or handover
- Dirty coils holding back the airflow
- Leaves and litter drawn into the unit
- Odours coming through the supply air
Classrooms and halls at schools such as Shepherdswell Academy are easiest to work in when pupils are away.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether a written report and pictures are included
What happens if it’s left?
Dirt left in an air handling unit does not stay in the unit. It’s carried through the ductwork and out of the grilles, which is why the unit and the ducts are best cleaned together. A visit arranged in advance is far less disruptive than a callout on a busy day.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from pictures or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Woolstone questions
Can you get to a site in Woolstone?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you work overnight in Woolstone?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Woolstone doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.
How much does AHU cleaning cost in Woolstone?
It depends on the site, so we quote each one individually. For a quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and tell us about the site and its opening hours.
What do you clean inside the unit?
Everything inside the unit that air passes over, from intake to discharge, including coils, fan and drain trays. The photo report shows each section before and after.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can you clean the ducts connected to the AHU?
Yes. We clean supply and extract ductwork to TR19® Air as well. Cleaning the unit and ducts together often makes sense, and we can survey both on the same visit.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Will you repair the fan or motor?
Motors, belts, controls and coils that need repair are a job for your maintenance contractor. We clean the unit and report anything we see that needs attention.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.
