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.

Could high humidity cause my kids' cold symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains last month, I noticed a musty smell in my bedroom closet, which is always the first room to be hit by any changes in humidity. My kids have been complaining of coughing and runny noses every morning, and now that we’ve had a few days of hot weather, they seem more congested than usual. Could high indoor humidity levels really be causing these issues?

High humidity can indeed be causing your kids' cold symptoms. In the UAE like Dubai, we often experience significant changes in weather conditions, especially after heavy rains. This can lead to a rise in indoor humidity levels, which might not only cause musty odors but also contribute to respiratory issues and discomfort.

In environments with high humidity, it becomes easier for mold spores to thrive. Mold growth is linked to various health issues such as coughing, runny noses, and congestion—symptoms your kids are experiencing. In fact, the Dubai Health Authority and other local health organizations recommend maintaining indoor relative humidity between 30% and 50%. Levels above this range can foster microbial growth.

Given your situation, it would be wise to have a professional indoor environmental inspection done by a company like ours, Saniservice. We specialize in such assessments for both residential and commercial properties here in Dubai and the UAE. Our team will check for moisture levels and assess any potential mold or other contaminants that might be contributing to your kids' symptoms.

Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com if you're interested in scheduling a consultation with us. We can provide tailored solutions like dehumidification systems, air purifiers, and mold remediation services to improve the indoor environment for you and your family.

In the meantime, try using dehumidifiers in affected areas, especially your bedroom closet, and ensure proper ventilation by opening windows whenever possible. Keeping humidity levels in check is key to preventing these issues from recurring.

Remember, addressing high humidity isn't just about feeling better; it’s also important for maintaining a healthy indoor environment that supports overall well-being.
