Ventilation duct cleaning in Temple

Ventilation duct cleaning in Temple, done properly

We cover Temple and the rest of Greater London for ventilation duct cleaning, in offices, schools, healthcare buildings and retail. Each building gets a survey first and a fixed quote. Common call-outs are for supply ducts with years of dust inside and duct runs that can’t be reached for cleaning, across supply ductwork, general extract ductwork and hospitals and care homes.

London buildings often depend on air handling units in plant rooms or on the roof to supply fresh air. For a building in Temple, dust settles in the units and ducts year after year, which is what TR19® Air cleaning deals with.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Ventilation duct cleaning around Temple

Going by the FSA’s register, there are about 75 schools, colleges and universities, about 50 caring premises (care homes, nurseries and hospitals) and about 185 hotels and B&Bs serving food within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Temple. Busy, occupied buildings like these are where clean supply air matters most. In London, ventilation plant is often on the roof or below ground, so the work is typically done out of hours. Temple’s nearest hospital, St Philip's Hospital, is about less than half a mile north-west. Clean air matters most where people are unwell, and that’s as true in a care home as in a hospital.

Workplaces around London Blackfriars station with an air handling unit need the filters, coils and drain tray looked at, as well as the ducts. If you manage a school such as St Clement Danes CofE Primary School, ventilation cleaning is best booked for the holidays.

Temple is about 1 mile south of St Pancras, in Greater London. Sites in Temple get the same service as everywhere we cover: a survey first, a fixed quote, work timed around your hours and a report with photos. 764 places in Greater London are on our list, large and small.

When it’s something else

We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it won’t cover:

  • Problems with how the system is controlled
  • A system that isn’t designed to move enough air
  • Kitchen extract ductwork, which needs a TR19® Grease clean

Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Where we work

  • Grilles and diffusers
  • Offices and schools
  • General extract ductwork
  • Supply ductwork
  • Toilet extract systems
  • Hospitals and care homes

The process

Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a day or less for a small system and a series of visits for a large one. Expect the work in Temple to happen after your last customer leaves, not during trading.

  1. First we plan when the work can happen, often out of hours.
  2. Access panels are opened along each run.
  3. Before pictures are taken and the ducts cleaned section by section.
  4. We clean the grilles and diffusers and put them back.
  5. We take after photos and send the certificate and report.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Tell us where we can park and unload

Get a fixed quote

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

What affects the cost of ventilation duct cleaning

The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:

  • The scale of the work
  • The number of sites or systems
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Asking for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings

If you need ventilation duct cleaning in Temple, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus pictures or the previous report if they’re to hand. We typically send a fixed quote within one working day.

What the work involves, part by part

Grilles and diffusers

Every duct ends at a grille or diffuser in the room. They’re cleaned along with the ductwork, so dust on them isn’t blown back in.

Extract ductwork

Washroom extracts handle damp air, which makes dirt stick. They’re cleaned and their condition recorded.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.

Between visits

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Include grilles in the cleaning rota
  • Don’t block grilles with furniture or storage
  • Do not run the ventilation while builders are sanding or cutting
  • Keep filters changed on time

Keep up with filter changes to protect the ducts. Overdue filters let dust straight back in.

Good filter maintenance protects the ductwork. Overloaded or poorly seated filters let dust straight through.

Questions from Temple

Can you come to Temple after we close?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Temple can fit around your hours. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.

Do you clean school ventilation in Temple in the holidays?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. There are about 75 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Temple. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.

How much notice should we give?

The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.

What does TR19 Air cover?

It covers ventilation hygiene for supply and extract systems in offices, schools, hospitals and other buildings. Kitchen extract systems fall under TR19® Grease instead.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, with visits on a regular schedule.

Can we book visits on a schedule?

Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

When to call us in Temple

Many systems run for long hours, day after day, and every hour of running brings more dust with it. The busier the building, the faster it builds up.

It’s time to book a visit if you see:

  • Odours carried round the building by the ducts
  • Systems missing access panels
  • Supply ducts with years of dust inside
  • Dust marks around grilles and ceiling diffusers

Healthcare ventilation, from large hospitals like St Philip's Hospital (about under half a mile north-west) to small clinics, depends on clean filters, coils and ducts.
