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.

Why is my AC still dirty after duct cleaning?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last month, I noticed a thick layer of dirt collecting on the floor of the ducts during my routine cleaning session. The AC in our apartment has been running non-stop to keep up with the heat, but the air still feels sticky and doesn't seem as clean as it should. Have any of you encountered similar issues or do you have tips on how to properly clean your ductwork?

Hi there! I'm glad you reached out about your concerns regarding the cleanliness of your air conditioning system. It's quite common to face issues like this after dust storms, especially in regions like Dubai and UAE where such weather phenomena can be frequent.

First off, it’s important to understand that despite regular duct cleaning, some factors might contribute to dirt accumulation or poor air quality, such as:

1. Frequency of Duct Cleaning: It's recommended to have your ducts cleaned every 3-5 years for optimal performance and hygiene. However, if you’ve just had a heavy dust storm or live in an area with high particulate matter, it might be beneficial to clean them more frequently.

2. Filter Maintenance: Even after cleaning the ducts, the air filter needs attention as well. A clogged filter can restrict airflow and allow dirt particles to bypass the filter system. Ensure you replace your filters every 3-6 months or sooner if they look dirty.

3. Leaking Ducts: Sometimes, the issue could be due to leaks in the ductwork. Air that isn't properly sealed might circulate dust and allergens into your living space. A professional inspection can help identify any such issues.

4. Dust Storm Impact: The heavy storms we experience often bring in a significant amount of particulates, which can overwhelm even well-maintained systems. While cleaning helps, it may take some time for the system to fully clear out all the dust and debris.

5. Air Distribution Issues: Poor air distribution or incorrect airflow settings could also contribute to your perception that the air is not as clean. Adjusting the thermostat settings or seeking advice from a professional HVAC technician can help optimize this.

For serious cases, it’s advisable to call in a professional for an inspection and cleaning. At Saniservice, we provide thorough duct cleaning services that ensure all areas of the system are properly cleaned and maintained. We also offer air quality testing to identify any hidden issues that might be affecting your indoor environment.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial, especially in places like Dubai where environmental conditions can vary significantly. If you’re concerned about the air quality in your home or office, don’t hesitate to reach out for a consultation or inspection. Call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com today!

Hope this helps!
