Professional DPF Inspection and Cleaning

How Our DPF Cleaning Process Works

At DPF Clean Team, we specialise in HGV DPF Cleaning and restoring truck DPF systems to optimal performance. After a garage has diagnosed any issues, we efficiently clean, repair, or replace the DPF filter, removing all soot and ash build-up. Our advanced cleaning process ensures that your DPF system meets emissions standards and performs reliably. Following the cleaning, comprehensive testing is conducted to guarantee long-term compliance for your vehicle.

DPF Cleaning Methods

  • Heat Treatment
    The DPF is placed in a high-temperature oven, reaching 1100-1130°F, which effectively burns off carbon deposits and soot buildup. This process is ideal for filters with stubborn blockages, ensuring deep cleaning without damaging the structure.
  • Enzyme Additives
    Special water-based enzyme additives are introduced into the DPF filter via our cleaning system. These enzymes help dissolve residual soot and carbon particles, cleaning the filter, reducing downtime and improving emissions performance.
  • Ultrasonics Treatment
    The DPF is submerged in an ultrasonic tank. High-frequency sound waves generate micro-bubbles that detach accumulated soot and particulate matter from the filter walls, thoroughly cleaning even the most clogged filters.
  • Flash Cleaner Machine
    The DPF is connected to the Flash Cleaner Machine, which uses a combination of pressurised water and controlled air flow to remove ash, soot, and other contaminants. This method provides a powerful yet gentle cleaning, leaving the filter spotless and ready for optimal performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

At DPF Clean Team, we use advanced hydro-cleaning, thermal regeneration and high-pressure airflow techniques to remove soot and ash buildup from diesel particulate filters. These methods ensure a thorough and effective clean without damaging the filter, restoring full functionality and improving exhaust flow. Unlike manual cleaning, our process eliminates both carbon deposits and non-combustible ash, which cannot be cleared through standard regeneration.

No, professional DPF cleaning does not void a vehicle’s warranty when carried out correctly. Our cleaning process follows manufacturer-approved procedures, ensuring that the filter is fully restored without modifications or damage. By maintaining your DPF in optimal condition, our service helps prevent costly repairs and ensures ongoing compliance with warranty terms.

Yes. Manual cleaning methods, such as chemical treatments or pressure washing, can cause permanent damage to the DPF, leading to costly replacements. Passive and active regeneration only burn off soot but do not remove built-up ash, which reduces the DPF’s efficiency over time. Our specialist DPF cleaning service provides a complete and effective solution, preventing unnecessary wear and prolonging the life of the filter.

Yes, a blocked DPF increases emissions and can cause MOT failures, legal penalties or operational downtime. Regular DPF cleaning ensures that commercial vehicles meet strict Euro 6 emissions standards, keeping them road-legal and environmentally compliant. By restoring the filter’s capacity to trap harmful particulates, our service helps businesses reduce their environmental impact and maintain compliance.

Our DPF cleaning services cover a wide range of commercial and industrial vehicles, including:

  • HGVs, buses and coaches
  • Construction machinery such as diggers and loaders
  • Agricultural vehicles, including tractors and harvesters
  • Plant and industrial machinery
  • Stationary engines and industrial generators

 

Regular maintenance is essential for these vehicles, as extended idling, high mileage and harsh working conditions can lead to rapid DPF blockages.

Yes, we offer customised DPF maintenance schedules to help fleet operators, logistics providers and industrial clients minimise downtime and prevent costly repairs. Scheduled DPF cleaning ensures that filters remain clear, improving fuel efficiency and preventing unexpected failures. By working with DPF Clean Team, businesses can maintain optimal performance, emissions compliance and long-term cost savings.
