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.

Should I hire professionals to check for leaks near my closet?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a persistent dampness in my bedroom closet. It's located on the second floor near the balcony, and it seems like there might be some water seepage from above. Given that we've lived here for 2 years and just noticed this issue, should I consider hiring professionals to seal any ducts that might be leaking air conditioned air or moisture into my closet?

Absolutely, it would be wise to have professionals check for any leaks near your closet. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, we often face challenges like dampness and moisture due to climate changes or structural issues. The persistent dampness you've noticed could indeed stem from water seepage from above, but it's also possible that air conditioning ducts might be contributing to the problem by leaking conditioned air or moisture into your closet.

In Dubai, adherence to building codes is crucial, and regulations often stress the importance of proper sealing of air ducts. The Building Control Department in Dubai requires all new constructions to have well-sealed ductwork to prevent energy loss and ensure indoor environmental quality (IEQ). However, given that you've only just noticed this issue after two years, it’s possible that some existing seals may be compromised.

Given the specific location of your closet on the second floor near a balcony, there are several reasons why you should consider professional inspection:

1. Potential Water Seepage: Balconies can sometimes become sources for water infiltration during heavy rain or high humidity periods.
2. Ductwork Inspections: Air conditioning ducts running above your closet could be contributing to the dampness if they have any leaks, causing warm air to mix with cooler outside air and condensing into moisture.

A professional inspection by a company like ours can help identify both the source of the issue and appropriate solutions. We recommend reaching out at 800-MOLDS or emailing us at hello@saniservice.com for an assessment. Our team will conduct a thorough inspection, pinpointing any leaks in your ductwork as well as checking for water damage.

Remember, timely action can prevent further deterioration of the closet area and help maintain your home’s overall indoor environmental quality. Don’t hesitate to call or email us; we’re here to ensure you have peace of mind regarding your living environment.
