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.

Should I clean now for my son's cough?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last week, I noticed my son has been having persistent coughing fits, especially at night. The bedroom window was left slightly open during the storm, and now there’s a layer of fine gray dust on everything inside. Given how urgent this feels, should I immediately clean for asthma triggers or wait until tomorrow?

Absolutely, you should clean now for your son's cough! The fine gray dust you've noticed is likely filled with allergens and irritants that can exacerbate asthma symptoms. In Dubai, we often face such storms which bring in a mix of dust from local sources and possibly even more concerning particles from outside.

Firstly, do ensure the room is well-ventilated by opening windows and doors for some fresh air to circulate. However, avoid doing so if you notice your son's symptoms worsening as that might introduce more irritants into his breathing space.

Start by removing all dust from surfaces with a damp cloth or microfiber dusters – this helps trap particles better than dry cloths which can just spread them around. Pay close attention to corners and baseboards where dust tends to accumulate.

Next, vacuum your son's bedroom thoroughly using a HEPA filter-equipped machine. The high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters in these vacuums are designed to capture tiny particles that might trigger his asthma. Don't forget soft furnishings like carpets and curtains if they're part of the room.

For tougher spots, you may need to use a mixture of water and white vinegar or baking soda to clean without harsh chemicals. Avoid using scented products as these can also irritate the airways.

Remember, in Dubai, we have strict regulations regarding indoor environmental quality but sometimes, storms like this one can breach even the best efforts at keeping our homes dust-free. That's why it’s crucial to take immediate action.

If you find that despite your best efforts, your son's symptoms persist or worsen, consider seeking a professional inspection and remediation service. Companies like Saniservice in Dubai offer expert advice on indoor air quality issues and can provide additional solutions if needed. You can call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for more details.

Taking these steps promptly can help reduce the allergens that might be aggravating your son’s cough, leading to a healthier indoor environment.
