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.

Can I handle bedroom closet mold myself?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains last month, I noticed a persistent dampness in my bedroom closet. Even though I run the dehumidifier all day, there’s still a noticeable mold smell that lingers, especially during the evening. My kids have been coughing more frequently, which makes me think it might be due to the humidity levels. Do you think I can handle this issue myself or should I consider hiring a professional?

Absolutely, i can give some guidance on handling the mold issue in your bedroom closet. dealing with humidity and mold is quite common here in dubai, given our climate. firstly, it's crucial to understand that mold growth thrives in damp, humid environments - something that seems to be a challenge for you.

i'd recommend taking these steps initially:

1. Increase Air Circulation: Ensure there's good airflow in your closet by opening the door slightly during the day or installing a fan if needed. this can help reduce moisture levels and prevent mold growth.
2. Dehumidifier Use: You mentioned running a dehumidifier, but it might be worth checking its settings to ensure you're extracting enough moisture from the air. aim for a relative humidity of 50% or lower in your closet.
3. Cleaning Surfaces: Regularly clean and dry any surfaces that show signs of mold using a mixture of water and mild detergent. scrubbing gently can help prevent it from spreading.
4. Sealing Gaps: Check if there are any gaps around doors, windows, or floor tiles where moisture could be entering your closet. sealing these areas might reduce humidity levels.

however, given the persistent mold smell and symptoms reported by your kids, i would suggest considering a professional inspection. in dubai, regulations require that indoor environments remain healthy for residents' wellbeing. if it's determined that there are significant issues, they must be addressed properly.

if you decide to go ahead with hiring a professional, call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com. they can provide a thorough inspection and recommend the best course of action, which may include remediation work beyond what you could handle on your own.

remember, addressing mold issues not only improves indoor air quality but also protects the structural integrity of your home against further damage from moisture. taking prompt action is key to preventing any potential health risks for yourself and your family.
