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.

Are landlords responsible for ceiling maintenance?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains we had a few weeks back, I noticed a persistent mold spot forming on the ceiling near my bedroom. The landlord hasn't mentioned anything about cleaning or maintaining the ceilings, but I’m not sure if it’s within his responsibilities as per the lease agreement. Do you think landlords in Dubai are typically responsible for ceiling maintenance?

Hi there,

Landlords in the UAE do have responsibilities regarding maintenance of properties, and this does include ceilings. But first, it is crucial to understand that these obligations can vary based on your lease agreement or local regulations.

In Dubai, as per the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) guidelines, landlords are indeed responsible for maintaining certain parts of a property, including ceiling in residential rentals. However, it's important to clarify what's included under 'ceiling maintenance'. A landlord is typically expected to maintain the structure and prevent damage caused by water leaks, structural issues, or pests. However, day-to-day cleaning tasks might fall on you as the tenant.

If you've noticed a persistent mold spot forming on your ceiling near your bedroom after heavy rains, it's definitely worth addressing. Mold can be harmful and requires professional attention to ensure it is completely removed and not just superficially cleaned.

It would be wise to contact your landlord regarding this issue first. If they don't respond or if you're unsure of the next steps, consider calling 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com for a consultation. Professional mold remediation experts can assess the situation and provide solutions that will keep both you and your family safe.

Remember to document everything - take photos, note down dates, and keep copies of any correspondence with your landlord. This could be useful in case you need to escalate the issue further or involve RERA if necessary.

Taking care of these issues early can prevent them from worsening and causing more significant problems. Stay proactive and ensure your living environment is safe and healthy.

Best regards,
[Your Name]
