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.

Is this dust from renovations harmful?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent renovations next door, our entire apartment has been filling up with this thick dust that settles everywhere, especially on the windowsills and even in corners where we least expect it. It’s been several weeks now, and no matter how much I clean, it just keeps coming back. The kids have started coughing and sneezing more often too, which makes me worry about what might be in this dust. How can we prevent this from happening or recurring?

The dust from renovations can indeed be harmful and it sounds like your concerns about the health effects of this dust are valid. In Dubai/UAE, indoor air quality (IAQ) is a crucial factor given the climate and the nature of construction activities.

Firstly, it's important to understand that renovation dust may contain a variety of particles including asbestos fibers, lead particles, silica, and other allergens. These can pose significant health risks especially for children and individuals with respiratory conditions. The UAE has stringent building codes and regulations such as the Dubai Municipality’s guidelines which mandate safety measures during renovations to mitigate these hazards.

To address your situation, I would recommend a professional inspection by experts like those at Saniservice who can assess the dust composition and determine if it contains any harmful materials. If you notice symptoms in yourself or your family members - like coughing, sneezing, or other respiratory issues - this is a red flag and should prompt immediate attention.

In the meantime, here are some practical steps to manage the situation:

1. Wear protective gear such as masks, gloves, and goggles when cleaning or moving around the dust.
2. Use HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) vacuum cleaners for thorough clean-up.
3. Regularly open windows to allow fresh air in; however, check the outdoor air quality first if possible.
4. Dust surfaces using a damp cloth to avoid spreading particles.
5. Seal off areas you don’t need to enter until cleaning is complete.

Do not underestimate the impact of dust on your family's health. If the situation persists or worsens, please consider contacting Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) for a professional assessment and remediation.

Remember, maintaining good IAQ in your living space is essential, especially with ongoing construction activities next door. Stay vigilant and proactive to ensure the health of you and your family.
