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.

How urgent is this closet mold issue?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains last month, I noticed a persistent musty smell in the closet of our master bedroom. It's gotten worse over the past week, even though we haven't used the closet much. The furniture inside feels damp to the touch, and there are some visible mold spots on the corners. How urgent is this issue and what steps should I take immediately?

The closet mold issue you're experiencing is quite serious and does require immediate attention. Mold growth can pose health risks especially if there are people with allergies, asthma, or other respiratory issues residing in the area. The musty smell, dampness on furniture, and visible mold spots all indicate a moisture problem that needs to be addressed promptly.

In Dubai/UAE, it is crucial to address such situations quickly as per the local building codes and environmental standards. Mold can also lead to structural damage over time if left untreated, affecting the value of your property.

Given the severity, I strongly recommend calling 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com for a professional inspection right away. Professional inspectors will assess the extent of mold growth, identify the source of moisture, and provide remediation solutions.

In the meantime, you can take some immediate steps to contain the issue:

1. Do not use the closet until it's been properly treated.
2. Wear protective gear such as gloves, a mask, and goggles before entering the area.
3. Open windows or use fans to improve air circulation if possible, but ensure no more water enters the space.
4. Document any visible mold growth for your records.

Remember that addressing mold issues early can save you from larger costs later on. It’s also wise to check if there are any leaks in pipes or roof areas around the closet as these could be causing the moisture. Regular maintenance and inspections, especially after weather events like heavy rains, can help prevent such problems.

Please take action swiftly to ensure a healthy environment for your family.
