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.

Who is responsible for damp carpet repair?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a damp spot forming under the changing table in our spare room. We’ve lived here for 2 years and just noticed that the carpet seems to be getting stained despite regular cleaning efforts. The landlord doesn't seem very responsive when it comes to maintenance issues like this. Should I be responsible for addressing this myself or is there a different arrangement typically expected in rentals for childcare spaces?

Damp carpet repair is a serious matter especially for childcare spaces where hygiene and safety standards are paramount. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, landlords have certain responsibilities under the Real Estate Agency Regulations issued by the Dubai Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA). According to these regulations, landlords are expected to maintain rental properties in a good state of repair and habitability.

However, identifying who is responsible for addressing the damp carpet issue can sometimes be ambiguous. If the damage is due to a leaking pipe or other structural issues within your unit, typically this would fall under the landlord's maintenance responsibilities. Yet, if the moisture ingress is due to improper ventilation or poor cleaning practices (which you've been diligent about), it might require different attention.

Given that you have lived in the property for 2 years and only recently noticed an issue, I recommend scheduling a professional inspection. This can help determine whether the dampness is structural or related to current conditions within your unit. In the UAE, companies like Saniservice offer such inspections and can provide guidance on remediation steps.

It's important to document any changes in condition over time. You could keep a log of when you noticed the issue and any efforts made to address it. This documentation may be useful if there’s disagreement about who is responsible for repairs.

In Dubai, the Law No. 17 of 2003 regarding landlord-tenant relations outlines that tenants have a duty to take reasonable care of the property while in their possession. However, this doesn't absolve landlords from ensuring properties are in good repair prior to and during tenancy.

If you decide to address it yourself, ensure any remediation aligns with local building codes and health guidelines. Using moisture-resistant materials and implementing proper drying techniques can help prevent further damage. Ventilation is key; consider speaking with a HVAC professional about improving air flow in the area.

Remember, your safety and that of children should be top priority. If you're unsure or if the dampness persists despite your efforts, don't hesitate to contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for expert advice.

Taking timely action can prevent minor issues from becoming major problems, ensuring a safe and healthy environment for childcare.
