Advised servicing frequency
- AC: service several times a year. Clean/replace filters more often in summer and dusty months
- Electrical: safety checks at least annually
- Plumbing &. Water heaters: inspect annually. Check for leaks regularly
- Water tanks: clean &. Sanitise periodically per Dubai Municipality guidance
- Building fabric: check waterproofing and seals before summer and the rainy spell
A preventive maintenance plan handles all of this on schedule, see villa maintenance.
