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.

Who cleans moldy area after rain?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a strange mold growing near the window in our living room. We’ve lived here for 2 years and just noticed this, but I’m not sure if it’s due to previous tenants or something we should address now that my kids are starting childcare again. Could someone give me advice on who is responsible for cleaning this area—me as a tenant or the landlord?

Who cleans moldy area after rain? This can be a tricky question and depends on the specifics of your lease agreement and local regulations. In Dubai/UAE, it's crucial to understand what the landlord is responsible for as per the terms of your rental contract.

Generally speaking, if the mold you're noticing developed due to a condition that was not present when you moved in or was caused by an event like heavy rain which would be considered natural wear and tear, then you might need to address this with your landlord. However, keep in mind that in some cases, especially where there are chronic water issues due to the previous tenants or building defects, it could be argued that the landlord should have taken preventive measures.

Given the recent rains, if the mold has developed suddenly, it’s wise to inspect for any underlying issues like leaking pipes or poor drainage. These kinds of problems can cause significant damage and health risks in a home environment.

If you find that the area is still damp after it has dried out naturally, or if there are signs of water ingress from outside, then this might be something to raise with your landlord as soon as possible. You should also check if the building’s maintenance schedule includes such inspections and remedial actions for mold growth.

In case the situation escalates, considering a professional inspection is always recommended. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice can provide these services. They offer mold testing, remediation, and advice on maintaining indoor air quality which are critical in protecting your family's health, especially with kids attending childcare again.

Remember to document everything—take photos, make notes of the extent of the mold, and inform your landlord promptly. If no action is taken by them, you may have grounds for a dispute or even legal recourse depending on local laws.

In the meantime, if the area is still damp, it's advisable to keep it well-ventilated, as moisture can encourage further growth. You could also consider using a dehumidifier in that specific room until a professional can assess and treat the issue.

Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for immediate assistance if you need guidance on addressing this situation quickly and effectively.
