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 we urgently address the mold issue?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains we experienced last month, I noticed a growing mold issue in our local restaurant, especially near the kitchen area. The place has been open for almost two years now, and it’s concerning how long this problem has persisted without proper attention. Given that my family and others frequently dine there, is this something urgent that needs addressing, or should we wait for them to take action on their own?

Absolutely, the situation at your local restaurant definitely calls for immediate attention. Mold growth can pose serious health risks to both employees and patrons, especially since it's been present for almost two years now. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, stringent regulations like those stipulated under the Federal Decree-Law No. 1 of 2005 concerning the Building Control Code (BCC) require building owners to ensure the health and safety standards are maintained.

Given that heavy rains have been experienced recently, it's highly likely moisture has contributed significantly to the mold issue. Kitchen areas, which often contain a lot of moisture from washing dishes and cooking processes, can become prime spots for such growth. It's crucial to address this promptly as prolonged exposure to mold can lead to respiratory issues, skin irritation, and other health problems.

I would strongly recommend you contact a professional environmental inspection company right away. In the UAE, companies like Saniservice are well-regarded for their expertise in dealing with such issues. You can reach out by calling 800-MOLDS or 800-66537, or email hello@saniservice.com. They'll be able to conduct a thorough assessment and provide the necessary remediation services.

In addition to professional help, here are some steps you can take while waiting for an inspection:
1. Ensure proper ventilation in affected areas.
2. Clean surfaces with a mixture of water and bleach or other mold-killing solutions.
3. Fix any leaks or sources of moisture that may be contributing to the growth.
4. Consider using dehumidifiers in damp areas.

Remember, it’s not just about addressing the visible mold; you also want to prevent future issues by ensuring adequate maintenance practices are followed. The health and well-being of your family and other diners should always be a top priority. So don't hesitate to take action now.

Urgency is key here, so don’t wait. Let’s make sure that place is safe for everyone!
