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.

Is moisture causing mold in nursery?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains last month, I noticed a musty smell lingering in the nursery. Upon checking, I found dark patches on the walls near the windows where water had dripped through. The carpets under the changing table also seem to be holding onto some moisture despite regular cleaning. Has anyone else experienced similar issues and how did you address them?

Is moisture causing mold in nursery?

Yes, it sounds like moisture could be the culprit behind those dark patches and musty smell you've noticed. In Dubai/UAE, especially after heavy rains, humidity can be a significant issue, leading to potential mold growth, particularly in areas where water has accumulated or seeped through walls.

In Dubai, as per the UAE building regulations, all new constructions are required to have proper moisture barriers and drainage systems to prevent such issues. However, older buildings may not meet these standards, making them more susceptible to problems like yours.

Given that you've already found evidence of water damage near windows and noticed moisture in carpets, it's crucial to take action promptly to avoid further damage or health risks for children in the nursery. Mold can pose respiratory issues, especially for young kids, so addressing this situation is important.

I recommend having a professional inspection done by contacting Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com to assess the extent of the mold growth and provide appropriate remediation solutions. They can also advise on necessary repairs for waterproofing and moisture management.

In the meantime, take some immediate steps:
1. Ventilate the area well with fans or open windows if possible.
2. Use dehumidifiers in affected areas to reduce moisture levels.
3. Clean surfaces with a mixture of water and bleach (at 1:10 dilution) to kill existing mold.
4. Replace any damaged carpets, padding, and drywall as needed.

Remember, addressing the source of moisture is key to preventing future issues. Ensure that gutters and downspouts are clear and direct rainwater away from the building's foundation. Regular inspections can help catch these problems early before they escalate into larger concerns.

If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out.
