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 the fog from vents and kids' symptoms linked?« Back to Previous Page

Since we renovated our living room two months ago, I’ve noticed a strange foggy mist coming from the vents every morning. The kids have been complaining of sore throats and runny noses, even though they’re not sick otherwise. Is this a sign of poor indoor air quality, or could it be something else in the house causing these issues?

The symptoms your kids have been experiencing and the foggy mist coming from the vents could indeed be linked to poor indoor air quality. In Dubai/UAE, regulations like those set by the UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE) stress the importance of maintaining healthy indoor environments.

It's not uncommon for new renovations to release off-gassing chemicals such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which could irritate respiratory systems leading to sore throats and runny noses. The fog from vents may be due to excess moisture or condensation, possibly indicating an issue with the HVAC system or the humidity levels in your home.

However, these symptoms might also be caused by other factors like allergens, mold spores, or even dust mites – especially if you have recently moved into a new place. Given your situation and considering the health of your family, it's crucial to get a professional inspection to pinpoint the exact cause.

A professional environmental assessment can help identify any potential issues with the air quality, HVAC system, and overall indoor environment. For prompt and reliable assistance in this matter, contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for a detailed inspection. Early intervention can prevent these symptoms from worsening and ensure your family's health remains a priority.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is key to living comfortably in the UAE’s climate. Regular checks and maintenance of your home’s systems can help avoid such issues.
