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 harmful to health?« Back to Previous Page

After the new construction next door wrapped up a few months ago, I’ve noticed an awful dust cloud every time they turn on their equipment. It’s gotten so bad that even when my windows are closed, there's still fine particles settling all over the living room and dining area. My kids have been coughing more than usual too. Should I be worried about this level of dust? Can it really affect our health, or should we just keep doors tightly shut until they're done?

Construction dust can indeed be harmful to your health. In the UAE and specifically in Dubai, regulations do require certain controls for dust management during construction but it's not unheard of for these standards to sometimes be overlooked or not fully implemented.

In Dubai, according to the Environmental Health Regulations, contractors are expected to take necessary measures to minimize dust from their worksites. This includes using proper equipment like water sprinklers and ensuring that vehicles entering and exiting the site are clean to prevent spreading dust. However, the reality can vary.

The particles in construction dust can range widely in size; some are so tiny they can be breathed deep into your lungs. These fine particulates can irritate your respiratory system leading to coughing, wheezing, or even asthma attacks. In kids and elderly folks, it's especially concerning as their immune systems might be more sensitive.

Given the situation you described where dust is still settling in your home months after construction has finished, this could indicate that the worksite isn't properly managed or that some dust is being inadvertently brought into your property through open windows or other means.

The effects of long-term exposure to such levels of dust can be more serious and might include chronic bronchitis, lung damage, and even a higher risk for certain cancers.

If this level of dust is persistent despite keeping doors tightly shut, it may be time to seek professional help. An environmental inspection could provide clarity on the extent of the problem and recommend steps towards mitigation. At Saniservice, we can offer services like air quality testing which would give you detailed information about what's in your indoor environment.

Remember, keeping windows closed isn’t enough; a thorough investigation might be necessary to ensure that the dust levels are under control and your family’s health is protected. If you're concerned or if symptoms persist, don't hesitate to contact us at 800-MOLDS for an inspection and remediation plan.
