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 much does mold inspection and removal usually cost?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains last month, I noticed a greenish tinge growing on the ceiling of my bedroom. My husband thinks it might be mold, but we’re not sure how to deal with it properly. We’ve lived in our apartment for two years and are hesitant about hiring professionals without knowing more. How much does it typically cost to have a mold inspection and removal done, and what’s involved in the process?

Hi there! Mold inspection and removal costs can vary quite a bit depending on the extent of the mold problem you're facing. In Dubai/UAE, it's generally recommended to have a professional come in for an evaluation especially when you've noticed signs like that greenish tinge on your ceiling.

Typically, a mold inspection starts from AED 500 and can go up to AED 2000 or more depending on the size of the area needing assessment. If the issue is minor and confined, it might be cheaper but for larger areas or if the mold has spread significantly, costs will increase.

When you hire a professional company like ours at Saniservice, they'll come over to your apartment and do a thorough check. They may use specialized equipment such as moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to pinpoint where the humidity is high—usually prime conditions for mold growth. Once identified, a detailed report will be given outlining the extent of contamination and recommended steps.

The removal process can vary in cost too, from AED 1000 - AED 5000+ depending on how much area needs treatment. It involves cleaning or removing contaminated materials, applying mold-resistant coatings, and ensuring proper ventilation to prevent recurrence.

Remember, it's important not just to clean up the visible mold but also address any underlying moisture issues that could lead to regrowth. Our team at Saniservice can help with this too!

If you're unsure about what to do or want a quick call for advice, feel free to reach out 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email us at hello@saniservice.com. We're here to ensure your home stays healthy and safe.
