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.

Is ceiling green discoloration mold affecting kids health?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains last month, I noticed a strange greenish tinge developing on the ceiling of my bedroom. My kids have been complaining of chest congestion and it's really worrying me that this might be linked to some kind of mold or mildew growth. Could this be affecting their health? What should I do to check for contaminants in our home?

Yes, it's quite possible that the greenish tinge you're noticing on your bedroom ceiling could be mold growth. Mold and mildew are common culprits in damp indoor environments, especially after heavy rainfalls like we've had recently here in Dubai.

The UAE doesn't have specific laws regarding indoor air quality but the health impact of mold is well understood. Exposure to mold spores can cause a range of respiratory issues including chest congestion, coughing, and wheezing – these are exactly what your kids might be experiencing. Mold can also exacerbate existing conditions like asthma.

It’s really important you take action now before any potential health risks worsen. First off, try to identify the source of moisture causing this growth. Check for leaky pipes, condensation, or insufficient ventilation in that area. Addressing these issues is key to preventing further mold growth and maintaining a healthy indoor environment.

If it looks like there's significant mold, I'd recommend you call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for an inspection. They can provide professional guidance and remediation if necessary. Don’t attempt to clean up the mold yourself unless it’s a small, contained area with minimal spread. Using harsh chemicals could potentially cause more harm than good.

In the meantime, keep the affected room well-ventilated by opening windows or using dehumidifiers if possible. Also, ensure you're regularly cleaning and drying any surfaces that might be prone to moisture accumulation.

Remember, it's not just about the aesthetics – protecting your family’s health is what counts here. Stay proactive and take steps now to safeguard your home environment.

Take care and I hope everything gets sorted soon!
