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 dampness causing mold in our bedroom?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent flooding in our new penthouse during the summer, we’ve noticed a persistent dampness in the master bedroom. The area under the bed and along the baseboards has started to feel noticeably wet even after thorough drying. My partner has been complaining of headaches and congestion, which I’m worried might be related. Could this be due to mold growth, and what steps should we take immediately to address it?

Dampness can indeed be a breeding ground for mold growth, especially in areas that don't have proper ventilation. In the UAE, including Dubai, there are no specific regulations requiring us to mention them here directly but it’s crucial to act promptly when dealing with moisture issues.

The persistent dampness you're experiencing under your bed and along baseboards could very well be leading to mold growth. Mold thrives in moist environments and can start to form within 24-48 hours of significant water intrusion, as has likely happened after the recent flooding. It’s important to address this issue quickly; otherwise, it may not only cause structural damage but also pose health risks.

The symptoms you've noticed, such as headaches and congestion, are common indicators that mold could be a factor in your partner's discomfort. Mold can produce allergens, irritants, and in some cases, toxins known as mycotoxins which can lead to respiratory issues, skin irritation, and even headaches in sensitive individuals.

Given the severity of the situation, I would recommend calling for an immediate professional inspection. In Dubai, you could reach out to Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for a thorough evaluation and remediation plan. They can provide you with expert guidance on how to clean the affected areas effectively.

In the meantime, there are steps you can take right away:

1. Ventilate: Open windows if possible, use fans to increase air circulation.
2. Dry Out: Use dehumidifiers or air conditioners to lower the humidity level in your bedroom.
3. Clean: Scrub any visible mold with a solution of water and detergent. Be sure to wear protective gear like gloves and masks during this process.

Remember, while these steps can help mitigate mold growth, they are not a substitute for professional intervention. Mold remediation requires specific techniques and materials that only certified professionals can apply safely and effectively.
