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 construction dust harming my kids?« Back to Previous Page

Since we moved into our new home three months ago, construction dust has been an ongoing issue, especially after it rained last month. The balcony right below a building site is leaking some of that dust into our unit through the cracks in the ceiling. My kids have been complaining about a persistent cough and I suspect it might be from all this dust. Is there anything we can do to keep them safe while the problem gets sorted out?

Is construction dust harming my kids?

Construction dust can indeed pose health risks, particularly to children. The particulate matter from building sites often contains various harmful substances such as silica, asbestos (though less common now), and even lead if the area is older. In your case, it sounds like rain has exacerbated the situation, causing dust particles to leak into your home through cracks in the ceiling.

First off, it's important to note that in the UAE, especially in Dubai, there are strict environmental regulations aimed at controlling construction dust. The Dubai Municipality and other local authorities enforce these measures. However, if you notice an increase in issues after a rain event, or if your children have started showing symptoms like persistent coughs, it might be wise to get a professional inspection done.

In the meantime, here are some practical steps you can take:

1. Ventilation: Keep windows closed as much as possible, especially during windy days or when dust levels seem high. However, ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup, which could lead to mold growth.

2. HEPA Filters: Consider installing High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters in your home’s air conditioning system or purchasing portable HEPA air purifiers for key areas like bedrooms and living spaces where your kids spend most of their time.

3. Wet Mop Floors: Regularly use a damp mop to clean floors, which can help trap dust particles before they become airborne.

4. Clothing Changes: Encourage family members to change into clean clothes when entering the house after being outdoors, and particularly after visits to construction sites.

5. Diet & Hydration: Ensure that your children are properly hydrated and eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins which can help strengthen their immune systems.

6. Medical Attention: If symptoms persist or worsen, consult with a pediatrician who may recommend allergy tests or other medical interventions.

Remember, it's crucial to address such issues promptly as dust exposure could lead to respiratory problems, especially in children. Contacting Saniservice at 800-66537 or emailing hello@saniservice.com for professional assistance would be a wise step. They can provide detailed assessments and remediation plans tailored to your specific situation.

Stay vigilant and proactive!
