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.

How much does duct cleaning removal cost?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a thick layer of dirt on the vents in my bedroom. Given that it’s a rental property, I’m unsure if this is something I should be responsible for cleaning or if it falls under maintenance. Who typically handles duct cleaning in such scenarios?

Duct cleaning removal costs can vary widely depending on the size of your ductwork, the extent of the dirt and debris, and the services you require. In Dubai/UAE, it's essential to consider that regulations and standards might differ from other regions, but typically, professional services are recommended for thorough cleanings.

The cost of duct cleaning in UAE generally ranges from AED 150 to AED 700 per linear meter, depending on the complexity of the job. For a small apartment or a single family home, you may be looking at an average price of around AED 2,000 to AED 3,000 for a full system clean.

It's important to note that after a dust storm like what we experienced last week, it might indeed be beneficial to have the ducts cleaned. However, in many rental agreements, maintenance responsibilities are clearly defined. It would be wise to review your contract with your landlord or property management company to see if they are responsible for such maintenance.

If you're unsure about who should handle this, a professional inspection can help clarify the situation. Many companies offer free initial inspections which can give you an idea of the state of your ductwork and the necessary steps to maintain good indoor air quality (IAQ).

For reliable and experienced service providers in Dubai/UAE, I would recommend calling 800-MOLDS or 800-66537 for a quote. Alternatively, email hello@saniservice.com with details of your property and the issues you've noticed to get personalized advice.

Remember, maintaining clean ducts is crucial not only for aesthetic reasons but also because it can significantly improve air quality, reduce allergens, and potentially lower energy costs by improving HVAC system efficiency. Regular cleaning is especially important in high-dust environments like after a dust storm or during peak seasons of pollen and other airborne irritants.

Taking proactive steps to address these issues can help ensure a healthier living environment for you and your family.
