Singapore’s warm and humid climate creates the perfect conditions for mould growth. Your aircon works hard to remove moisture from the air, but if it is not maintained properly, the system itself can become a breeding ground for mould, bacteria, and dust.
This leads to allergy flare ups, sneezing, itchy eyes, and poor indoor air quality. Regular aircon servicing is one of the most effective ways to keep your home clean, fresh, and safe for your family.

1. Cleaning Filters to Remove Dust and Allergen Buildup
Air filters trap dust, pollen, pet hair, and airborne allergens. When filters are dirty, these particles get pushed back into your room every time you turn on the aircon.
Servicing helps by:
Removing dust and fine allergens
Improving airflow
Reducing sneezing and sinus irritation
Clean filters can reduce indoor allergen levels significantly.
2. Removing Mould From the Evaporator Coil
Moisture collects inside the indoor unit whenever the aircon runs.If it is not cleaned regularly, that moisture encourages mould and mildew to grow on the cooling coil.
Signs of mould inside your aircon:
Musty smell when switching on
Black or grey spots on vents
Family members experiencing sinus discomfort
Servicing removes early mould growth and prevents it from spreading.
3. Clearing the Drain Pipe to Prevent Damp Smells
A blocked drain pipe traps water inside the unit. Stagnant water encourages bacteria and mould, which affects indoor air quality.
Regular servicing prevents:
Damp or musty odours
Water leaks
Moisture buildup that leads to mould spores
A clean drainage system is essential for healthy cooling.
4. Improving Airflow for Better Filtration
When airflow is blocked by dust, the system struggles to filter the air properly.A clean aircon circulates air more effectively, which helps remove pollutants from your room.
Airflow checks during servicing help:
Reduce airborne allergens
Maintain steady cooling
Keep humidity levels under control
Lower humidity means mould has fewer chances to grow.
5. Chemical Wash for Deep Cleaning
When mould has already built up inside the unit, a standard servicing is not enough. A chemical wash removes deep microbial growth from the coil, blower wheel, and drainage system.
Chemical treatment helps:
Eliminate stubborn mould colonies
Reduce allergy triggers
Restore fresh and clean airflow
This is especially helpful for families with asthma, children, or elderly members.
