Biomass flue cleaning for healthcare

Hospitals, care homes and clinical sites can’t be without heat for long. We plan every clean around that.

Heat back on as fast as possible

On a healthcare site the boiler is rarely just a boiler — it’s heating wards, hot water and sometimes sterile services. So the clean is planned with your estates team before we arrive: when the boiler can come off, what’s covering the load, and when it needs to be back.

Cleans that run over more than one day are booked on consecutive working days and never across a weekend, so the plant isn’t sitting off while nobody’s working on it.

We provide site-specific RAMS ahead of the visit and work within your permit and isolation procedures.

Site-specific risk assessments and method statements supplied in advance.

Isolation

Your procedures

We work within your isolation and permit-to-work arrangements.

Records

Audit-ready reports

Condition-scored, photographed reports and a certificate for every boiler.

Every visit is written up

Each flue gets a condition score out of 100 across five areas — soot, obstruction, liner, structural integrity and defects — with photographs from inside the flue. Each boiler gets its own certificate, and a sticker on the boiler shows when it was last cleaned and when it’s next due.

Because the scoring is the same every visit, you can see a flue getting worse over a year or two and plan the repair, rather than finding out when it fails.

See an example report — it’s for a made-up site, so you can see exactly what you’d get without anyone else’s details on show.

What’s not included. We clean flues and check them for obstructions. We don’t service boilers and we don’t clean particulate filters — we work alongside whoever does. Where a flue needs a MEWP or scaffold to reach, we’ll tell you at the survey and price the access separately.

Common questions

Things people ask us

Can you work out of hours?

Yes. We plan around your shutdown windows, including out of hours, to keep disruption to clinical areas down.

Do you provide RAMS?

Yes. Site-specific RAMS are prepared before the visit and can be submitted through your estates or contractor-control process.

Tell us what you’re running and roughly where. We’ll come and look before quoting anything.

We only need the first half of the site postcode at this stage. Nothing you send here is shared or published.
