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.

Do I Need Professional Help for Dust?« Back to Previous Page

After the new construction next door finally wrapped up a few weeks ago, I’ve been dealing with an awful cloud of dust settling in my apartment. It’s particularly bad in the living room and kitchen areas where we spend most of our time. The coughing from my kids has gotten worse since then, and it feels like every surface is covered in a fine layer of grit. Can anyone suggest if I can handle this on my own or if professional help might be necessary?

Do I Need Professional Help for Dust?

It's understandable to be concerned about the dust settling into your apartment after the new construction next door. The situation you're experiencing can indeed have a significant impact on your family’s health, especially if it's causing coughing in your kids.

In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, there are specific environmental regulations and guidelines that address indoor air quality (IAQ) issues like dust. These guidelines focus on ensuring that buildings meet certain standards for IAQ to protect public health. However, maintaining those standards during or after construction can sometimes be challenging due to dust from nearby projects.

Given the severity of your situation—especially if it's affecting your kids' health—a professional inspection might be necessary. Dust can contain various particles including asbestos fibers, lead dust, and other harmful substances which could pose a risk. These require careful assessment by qualified professionals who are familiar with local regulations such as the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi (EAD) guidelines.

A good starting point is to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for an immediate consultation. They can provide you with a professional opinion on whether your situation needs intervention and what steps should be taken to mitigate the dust. Professional services often include thorough cleaning, air quality testing, and recommendations on how to prevent future issues.

In the meantime, here are some practical steps you can take:
• Regularly wipe down surfaces with damp cloths.
• Keep windows closed if possible to minimize outdoor dust entering your home.
• Use HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters in air conditioners or portable units.
• Encourage family members to avoid touching their faces and wash hands frequently.

Remember, while these steps can help manage the situation temporarily, addressing the root cause—such as sealing off entry points for dust—is crucial. A professional inspection is key to ensuring that your home environment is safe and healthy.

So, if you’re unsure or if symptoms persist, don't hesitate to reach out for professional help to ensure a safer living environment for your family.
