Who should clean mold from AC in Dubai for asthma?« Back to Previous Page
|
The AC in my apartment in Jumeirah seems to be making a weird damp smell every time it kicks on, and my son's asthma has been way worse this past month. I cleaned the visible filter but the smell came back in a couple of days. What's the most effective way to get the AC unit professionally cleaned to kill any mold for good, and who should I call for that here in Dubai?

As a certified mold remediation specialist here in Dubai, dealing with asthma-triggering mold in an AC unit is a serious issue that requires a specific protocol. You absolutely should NOT use a regular AC cleaning service. The damp smell you describe is classic for microbial growth within the evaporator coils and drip pan, areas you cannot access with a simple filter clean.
For an asthma sufferer, the correct company to call is a professional environmental hygiene or mold remediation company that specializes in HVAC system decontamination. Look for a provider certified by the Dubai Municipality or using NADCA (National Air Duct Cleaners Association) standards. The process must go beyond a simple spray; it involves applying EPA-approved, non-toxic biocides and enzymatic cleaners directly to the coil fins and drain pan to kill the mold at its source, followed by a thorough rinsing to prevent any chemical residue from becoming airborne. In severe cases, a full duct cleaning might be necessary to remove spore deposits. Given your son's worsened asthma, a pre- and post-remediation air quality test is highly recommended to confirm the types of mold present and verify the cleanup's effectiveness. For a proper inspection and a guaranteed hygienization that complies with local health regulations, you need experts.
