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 more due to dust storm debris?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent dust storm, I noticed a lot of debris collected under the furniture in the living room. My son has had a persistent cough since we got home from the hospital visit last week, and I’m worried it might be because of allergens from all that dirt. Have anyone else experienced similar issues or should I start cleaning more rigorously, especially focusing on dust and pet dander?

Absolutely, cleaning more due to the dust storm debris is highly advisable. After such events, it's crucial to tackle the immediate and potential long-term effects of increased particulate matter that can settle inside your home.

Firstly, it’s important to understand that while the UAE has stringent building regulations concerning indoor air quality (IAQ), these are more focused on construction and ongoing maintenance standards rather than post-event clean-ups. However, given the recent dust storm, you should take extra measures now.

Start by thoroughly cleaning under furniture and in hard-to-reach areas where dust can accumulate. Use a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter to capture fine particles that might include pet dander, pollen, or other allergens. Ensure you clean carpets, curtains, and upholstery as well—these areas often trap allergens and irritants.

Regarding your son’s persistent cough, it's wise to consider his proximity to the source of dust and how much he may be exposed during these times. If symptoms persist despite cleaning efforts, professional inspection might be necessary. In Dubai/UAE, companies like Saniservice (contact 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com) offer comprehensive indoor air quality assessments that can help identify any lingering issues.

Remember to keep windows closed during and after the storm to prevent further entry of dust and pollutants. Regularly airing out your home once the weather clears can also help reduce moisture levels, which can encourage mold growth—a common issue post-dust storms in this region.

Lastly, maintaining a clean environment through regular cleaning schedules can significantly improve indoor air quality. This not only benefits you but also anyone else living or spending time in the house. A clean and well-maintained home is a healthier home!

In case of any concerns or if symptoms worsen, don’t hesitate to consult with healthcare professionals who might recommend further steps or treatments.

Clean away!
