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 worry about mold in my kids' bedroom?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy storms we had last month, I noticed a weird moldy smell lingering in my bedroom closet. It’s really starting to worry me because my kids have been complaining of coughing fits especially at night. The closet isn’t very well ventilated and it seems like moisture is getting trapped inside despite the dehumidifier. Is there anything specific I can do to prevent this from happening again?

Absolutely you should be concerned 'bout mold growin' in your kids' room. Mold can cause a whole range of health issues, from allergic reactions to respiratory problems, and even worsen existing conditions like asthma. The UAE has strict regulations when it comes to indoor air quality, so this situation definitely warrants attention.

First off, the moisture issue seems like a major red flag. In Dubai/UAE, high humidity levels are common, but your closet's poor ventilation is exacerbating the problem. A dehumidifier isn't enough if there's no proper airflow. You might want to consider installing exhaust fans or vents that can help remove damp air.

Start by thoroughly cleaning and drying out the area. Scrub any visible mold with a solution of water and detergent, then rinse well. For tougher spots, a 1:10 bleach and water mix could work. Be sure to wear protective gear like gloves and masks when you're doing this cleanup job.

Next, focus on improving the overall ventilation in that space. Open windows if weather permits or consider installing a dehumidifier with better air flow capabilities. You might want to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for professional help, especially if you're dealing with a widespread issue.

Additionally, it's crucial to keep an eye on the relative humidity in your home. In Dubai/UAE, it’s generally recommended that indoor levels stay between 30-50%. You can use a hygrometer to monitor this and adjust accordingly by using dehumidifiers or air conditioners during humid months.

Lastly, regular inspections are key to maintaining good indoor air quality. If you notice any signs of mold growth recurring, it might be time for a professional inspection to ensure everything is in order.

Don't let this issue fester - act now and protect your family's health!
