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.

Who is responsible for carpet drying?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a damp spot on the carpet in my coworking area. We’ve lived here for 2 years and just noticed that it still hasn’t dried out properly despite repeated mopping. Am I responsible for addressing this issue or should the landlord be handling it?

Hey there,

First off, it's great that you're keeping an eye on the maintenance of your coworking space. In Dubai and UAE, landlords are generally responsible for maintaining the structural integrity and ensuring a safe environment within their properties. However, when it comes to specific issues like carpet drying after a rain event, things can get a bit murky.

If this damp spot has been around for 2 years and hasn't dried out properly despite repeated mopping, I'd highly recommend scheduling an inspection by a professional service. This is particularly important as prolonged moisture in carpets could lead to mold growth which not only affects air quality but also your health. In the UAE, regulations under the Building Control Department of Dubai Municipality require landlords to ensure a safe and hygienic environment.

Typically, landlords are responsible for major structural issues that may affect the overall building integrity or safety. However, carpet drying and routine maintenance like mopping fall more into the tenant's hands unless there's evidence that the issue stems from faulty plumbing or other structural defects which the landlord should address.

That being said, it’s always a good idea to communicate with your landlord regarding this matter. You can send them a formal email outlining the situation, including dates of when you first noticed the dampness and any attempts at resolution. Include photos if possible as visual evidence can be quite helpful in these situations.

If negotiations aren’t fruitful or the issue persists, it might be time to call in an expert. We recommend calling 800-MOLDS (or 800-66537) for a professional assessment and remediation service. They'll have the tools and expertise to properly address any potential mold growth and ensure your workspace is safe.

Remember, it’s crucial to act fast on these kinds of issues to avoid more serious problems down the line. Taking proactive steps can help protect both your health and the value of your coworking space.

Hope this helps!
