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.

Should I address nursery dampness with landlord?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a persistent dampness in the nursery we set up in the spare bedroom. The area under the crib smells musty and feels a bit wet to the touch, even though it’s been over a week since it rained. Since this is a rental, I’m unsure if cleaning that area falls under my responsibilities or not. Should I be addressing this with the landlord, or can I handle it myself?

Absolutely, it's wise to address the dampness issue with your landlord. In Dubai and UAE, there are certain building regulations that protect tenants from water damage and mold growth due to structural issues or improper maintenance. If you've noticed persistent moisture under the crib in a rented space, it could be a sign of a serious underlying problem that needs immediate attention.

Firstly, it's crucial to document the issue by taking photos and noting the exact location and extent of the dampness. This can serve as evidence if discussions with your landlord are needed or if professional help is required.

If you're unsure about handling the situation yourself, especially given the potential for mold growth which can be a health concern in children's environments, it would be advisable to call in professionals. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice (you can reach them at 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com) offer expert services for moisture and mold inspections.

For now though, you could try addressing the issue directly with your landlord by sending a polite message outlining what you've observed and requesting their assistance in resolving the matter. Emphasize the importance of maintaining a safe environment for children and that you're willing to work together towards a solution.

Additionally, check if there are any local building codes or tenant rights specific to Dubai that might support your case. The Department of Economic Development (DED) and the Municipality of Dubai may offer guidance on these matters.

Remember, addressing dampness promptly can prevent further issues like mold growth, structural damage, and health problems for children in the nursery area. It's better to be proactive rather than reactive when it comes to maintaining a healthy environment for your kids.

Hope this helps!
