Why is professional AC cleaning important in Dubai homes and offices?

Dubai’s climate creates constant high humidity inside AC systems, which encourages microbial growth. Without proper cleaning, AC units can circulate contaminants throughout indoor spaces.

How is Saniservice different from standard AC cleaning companies in the UAE?

Most AC cleaners focus on visible dust. Saniservice follows a scientific indoor environmental remediation process that targets microbial sources, moisture behavior, and airflow contamination.

Is AC mould common in Dubai buildings?

Yes. Due to year-round AC use, high humidity, and sealed buildings, AC-related microbial growth is extremely common in Dubai residential and commercial properties.

Why does simple AC duct cleaning often fail to solve air quality issues?

Duct cleaning alone does not address coils, drain pans, humidity imbalance, or microbial reservoirs. Without correcting these, contamination quickly returns.

How does Saniservice assess whether an AC system is contaminated?

We begin with system inspection and risk assessment, examining moisture patterns, airflow paths, and areas prone to microbial growth rather than relying on visual assumptions.

Why is fogging not an effective AC disinfection method?

Fogging treats air temporarily but does not remove contamination from coils, drains, or surfaces where microbes grow. It masks symptoms without solving root causes.

Can bleach be used safely inside AC systems?

Bleach fails because it does not penetrate biofilms, can corrode components, and does not correct humidity conditions that allow regrowth.

How does humidity affect AC hygiene in the UAE climate?

Humidity is the primary driver of microbial growth. Without addressing moisture behavior inside the system, cleaning alone will not deliver lasting results.

What does “medical-grade AC disinfection” actually mean?

It refers to controlled cleaning and disinfection methods aligned with indoor environmental health standards, not perfumes or cosmetic sanitizers.

How does Saniservice verify that AC cleaning was effective?

Where required, we use pre- and post-intervention validation methods to confirm that contamination levels have been meaningfully reduced.

Is AC cleaning necessary even if there is no visible mould?

Yes. Microbial contamination often exists inside coils and drains long before visible signs appear, especially in Dubai’s climate.

How often should AC systems be cleaned in Dubai?

Frequency depends on usage, humidity levels, and building type, but most UAE properties require more frequent intervention than cooler climates.

Can poor AC hygiene affect health?

Contaminated AC systems can circulate microbial fragments and irritants that may worsen respiratory symptoms and indoor comfort.

Why does Saniservice sometimes clean less than other companies?

Our methodology focuses on correct intervention. We avoid unnecessary disturbance that can spread contamination or damage system components.

Is this service suitable for villas, apartments, and commercial buildings?

Yes. The same scientific principles apply across residential, commercial, and sensitive environments in the UAE.

How does Saniservice handle AC cleaning in occupied spaces?

We use controlled procedures designed to minimize disruption and prevent the spread of contaminants during cleaning.

What role does airflow play in AC contamination?

Improper airflow allows moisture and particles to settle, creating ideal conditions for microbial growth inside the system.

Can AC cleaning reduce recurring odours?

Yes, when odours are caused by microbial growth or trapped moisture, addressing the source eliminates the problem rather than masking it.

Why is source identification important before disinfection?

Disinfection without understanding the cause leads to recurrence. Our process identifies why contamination formed in the first place.

Who should consider Saniservice’s AC cleaning and disinfection service?

Clients in Dubai who prioritize verified indoor air quality, occupant health, and long-term building performance rather than superficial cleaning.

Could mold from last month's rain be causing my son’s cough?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a musty smell lingering in my son’s bedroom. It’s really concerning because he’s been coughing more lately, and I’m worried it might be from mold or dust mites. The bedroom is on the second floor near the balcony where water tends to seep through during heavy rains. Has anyone dealt with similar issues and had success cleaning their space thoroughly?

Absolutely could be! In dubai, we often see mold growth after heavy rains. The musty smell and the coughing sounds like a definite possibility of mold or dust mites being present in your son's room. The second-floor balcony area is particularly susceptible to water infiltration during rainstorms which can lead to moisture accumulation inside walls and ceilings.

First off, i'd recommend giving your son's bedroom a thorough inspection for visible signs of dampness, mold spores, or any musty odors. Look out for water stains on the ceiling or walls especially near the balcony area. Mold thrives in humid conditions so it’s not uncommon to see growth after rain.

If you find any suspicious areas, take some pictures and document your findings. It's also a good idea to check if there are any issues with your building's drainage system as water seeping through can be due to faulty pipes or inadequate gutters.

For thorough cleaning, start by airing out the room. Open windows if possible (but ensure it’s not raining) to allow fresh air in and reduce moisture levels. Use a dehumidifier to help lower humidity which can prevent mold from growing further.

Cleaning agents containing bleach or other disinfectants are effective at killing mold spores but be careful as they may irritate your son's respiratory system. Consider wearing gloves and a mask when cleaning to protect yourself.

If the issue persists, i strongly recommend calling in professional help. Here in dubai, companies like saniservice offer comprehensive mold remediation services that include thorough inspections, cleaning, and even structural repairs if necessary. Their expertise can ensure that any hidden problems are addressed properly.

Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a consultation or to book an inspection. Early intervention is key in preventing further health issues for your family.

Remember, while you can take steps to clean up minor mold issues yourself, significant growth often requires professional attention due to potential structural damage and the need for proper containment procedures during remediation.
