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 can I stop mold growth in my closet?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a musty smell in my bedroom closet, and when I opened it up, I saw some greenish spots on the back wall. It's been there for about a week now, and I’m worried it might start spreading if not addressed properly. How can I prevent mold from growing again and ensure this doesn't happen in other parts of the house?

Cleaning mold from your closet is indeed essential to prevent further growth and maintain the health of your belongings. In the UAE, especially in Dubai, where humidity can be a bit higher due to our climate, it's crucial to act swiftly once you spot any signs of mold.

Firstly, ensure that the area is well-ventilated before starting any work. Open windows if possible or use an exhaust fan to help with air circulation. This will aid in drying out the affected area and can prevent spores from spreading.

To remove the greenish spots on your closet wall, you'll want to start by gently scrubbing them with a solution of water and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate). Baking soda is alkaline and effective at neutralizing mold. Make sure to wear gloves during this process for protection. If the spots are stubborn or widespread, consider using a mild detergent mixed with water. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.

After cleaning, it's important to dry the area completely. Use fans if necessary but avoid direct heat sources like hairdryers which could damage your closet's materials. Ensure that the humidity levels in your room remain low; this can be managed by using dehumidifiers or air conditioning units during humid seasons.

Preventing future mold growth is key, and here are a few tips:
• Regularly check for signs of moisture or leaks around windows and pipes.
• Use exhaust fans when showering or cooking to reduce humidity levels in the bathroom and kitchen areas.
• Ensure proper drainage outside your home so that water does not pool near your building's foundation.
• If you have carpeted floors, consider replacing them with tiles or hardwood which are less prone to mold growth.

For serious cases or if you're unsure about how to proceed, it’s recommended to call in a professional. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice offer expert mold inspection and remediation services that adhere to local regulations. Their contact details are 800-MOLDS or 800-66537, or you can email them at hello@saniservice.com for assistance.

By taking these steps, you'll not only address the current issue but also prevent mold from making a return appearance in your closet and elsewhere around your home.
