Periodic inspection, cleaning and disinfection of Air Handling Units (AHU) is an essential part of maintaining HVAC hygiene within our indoor environments.
Air handling unit components and air distribution chambers harbouring organic debris, dust particles, carbon and rust deposits, active bacteria and mould growth can contribute to air flow deficiencies and trigger unforeseen building occupant health-related issues.
Typically our cleaning operations incorporate HEPA vacuuming and disinfection control wash down processes to achieve cleanliness and hygiene standards.
Components that need to be considered as part of the remediation process may include: filtration banks, heating and cooling coils, condensate pans, condensate drains, humidification systems, fans, fan compartments, insulation, volume control dampers and door gaskets.
Air handling units servicing sterile, theatre or clean room environments should be placed on a more regular cleaning regime.
