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.

Can I improve air filtration during dust storms?« Back to Previous Page

The AC in my apartment seems to cycle on more frequently than usual since the dust storms started last week. My children have been complaining of itchy eyes and a persistent cough, especially when they come inside from playing outside. The storm has been particularly severe today, with thick dust swirling even through our closed windows. Is there anything I can do to filter out the dust better or make the air more breathable for my family?

Absolutely! Dust storms can indeed cause significant discomfort for your family, and improving air filtration is crucial during such events. Here are some steps you could take to make the air more breathable:

Firstly, ensure that your air conditioning system is functioning optimally. In Dubai, it's common practice to have regular maintenance checks on these systems, especially before the dust storm season starts. Your current AC might be cycling more frequently as a result of trying to filter out all the extra particles in the air. You may want to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a professional inspection and servicing to ensure it's doing its job efficiently.

Secondly, adding a high-quality air purifier can make a significant difference. Look for one with HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters which are designed specifically for capturing tiny particles like dust mites and pollen - perfect during such stormy times. These machines can be set to run continuously when storms hit.

Thirdly, invest in good-quality air filters for your windows if you haven’t already done so. Even with the windows closed, some dust still gets through, but these filters can significantly reduce the amount that does. You might also consider using a damp cloth or a spray bottle of water to lightly mist the area before closing doors and windows tightly.

Another tip is to keep indoor plants. They not only add a touch of greenery but can also help filter the air naturally. Just ensure they are well-watered as dust storms often bring in lots of dry, dusty air.

Lastly, you might want to create a dedicated space like a room where your family can take refuge when storms hit. Close all doors and windows, use fans or portable air purifiers to circulate clean air, and limit activities that could stir up more dust.

Remember, if the situation worsens or symptoms persist, it’s always best to consult with an expert. Professional inspections can ensure that you are taking all necessary steps to protect your family's health during these challenging times.

Hope this helps! Stay safe!
