About our AHU cleaning in Wye
Units vary a lot in size, age and layout, whether it’s a compact unit in a ceiling void or a big unit on the roof. We look at the unit first, from pictures or a site visit, and give you a fixed quote before any cleaning starts. If you are dealing with rooms that smell stuffy when the system runs and dirty fans and fan housings, we can put it right, from internal panels, supply and extract fans and filter sections onwards.
For a building in or near Wye, 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.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we do, step by step
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, carry out the AHU cleaning, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes from a few hours for a compact unit to a day or more for a large one. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Wye.
- First the unit is surveyed, from photos or a visit, and the scope agreed.
- The unit is shut down with your site team and the area protected.
- We clean or change the filters as agreed, then clean the coils, fan and internal panels.
- Standing water and slime come out of the tray and the drain is checked.
- A TR19® certificate and photo report follow the clean.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Move anything stored near the system

What your team can do, and what needs us
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: 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, and that is where we come in.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

William Harvey Hospital, about 3.1 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Wye, and healthcare sites of every size need their supply air kept clean.

What else we do in Wye
Different parts, different methods
Drain trays
Condensate from the coil drips into a tray beneath it. We clear standing water, clean out slime and check the outlet is draining.
Filters
Clogged filters reduce airflow, and dirt can get round the edges. The filter section is cleaned so new or cleaned filters sit properly.
Wye: your questions answered
Can you clean school ventilation in Wye during the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Around Wye, the Food Standards Agency lists about 2 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Do you work in villages like Wye?
Yes. Wye is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you give a certificate after the clean?
Yes. You receive a certificate and a report showing each section before and after, with any faults we noticed.
What does AHU cleaning cost?
There’s no set price, as it depends on the job: the size of the system, its condition, access and when we can work. You get a fixed price before work begins.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
How we price AHU cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- The scale of the work
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The number of sites or systems
- A single visit or a regular plan
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You will have a fixed price before work begins.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The postcode and the type of business
To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.
Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Look at the condensate drain whenever the unit is serviced
- Flag stale or damp smells in the supply air
- File each AHU report in the maintenance log
- Watch for drips or damp patches near the plant
Once the clean is done, we send a TR19® certificate and a report with before and after pictures. Keep both with the building’s maintenance records.
Keep the area around the intake clear. Anything around the intake is likely to be drawn in.
