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 under kitchen cabinets?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a damp spot under the kitchen cabinets where my son likes to play. It's concerning me that there might be mold growing down there, especially with how often he and my niece come over to visit. Should I be worried about this, or is it something relatively easy to clean up myself?

Should I worry about mold under kitchen cabinets?

Absolutely, you should be concerned. Mold can pose serious health risks, especially to young children and those with allergies. In the UAE like Dubai, we've seen an increase in humidity levels during rainy spells, making damp spots a common concern.

In your case, given that there’s been rain recently and a noticeable damp spot under kitchen cabinets where kids play, it's imperative to address this promptly. Mold thrives in damp environments and can produce allergens and irritants which might not only affect respiratory health but also cause more severe reactions such as asthma attacks or other allergic responses.

According to the UAE building codes and guidelines, especially those from the Dubai Municipality, ensuring a healthy indoor environment is crucial. They recommend regular inspections for moisture issues and prompt remediation if any are found. Given that young children spend time in this area, it's even more critical to ensure the space is safe and clean.

Before taking action, I would strongly advise you to call 800-MOLDS or 800-66537 or email hello@saniservice.com for a professional inspection. These experts can help determine if there’s active mold growth and guide you through the necessary steps to remediate the situation safely.

If it is indeed mold, you might find DIY cleaning guides online but be wary of doing this yourself without proper knowledge and tools. In Dubai, many professionals recommend using HEPA filters during clean-up and wearing appropriate protective gear like masks, gloves, and goggles to avoid inhaling spores or touching them directly.

Remember, addressing the source of moisture is just as important as cleaning up mold. Ensure that any plumbing issues are fixed and consider improving ventilation in this area if needed. Regular inspections can prevent future occurrences.

Taking these steps will not only improve indoor air quality but also ensure a safer environment for your family.
