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.

Are sandstorms harming my family's health?« Back to Previous Page

Since moving into our third-floor apartment near the airport, we’ve been experiencing sandstorms almost every other night. The bedroom window looks covered in a fine layer of yellowish dust even when it’s not storming. My kids have started coughing more at night, and I’m worried it might be because of all this sand inside the house. Has anyone else here had similar issues or know how to keep our home cleaner during these storms?

Are sandstorms harming my family's health? That's a valid concern, especially considering the frequent storms we experience here in Dubai. The particles carried by these winds can indeed impact your home's indoor air quality and potentially affect your family's health.

In dubai, we've got some particulate matter that can be quite irritating. Sandstorms bring in fine dust and tiny particles which are not only visible but also invisible to the naked eye. These particles can irritate the eyes, nose, and throat causing coughing and sneezing. For kids and those with existing respiratory issues, it's important to take precautions.

To safeguard your family during sandstorms, start by keeping windows and doors tightly closed as much as possible. A good investment here might be an air purifier equipped with a HEPA filter which can help trap tiny particles that pass through the air. Regularly cleaning these filters is key for optimal performance.

Additionally, you may want to consider installing a dehumidifier in your home. High humidity levels can encourage the growth of mold and dust mites, both of which can exacerbate respiratory issues. Keeping relative humidity between 30% and 50% will help minimize these allergens.

If the storms are particularly bad or if you notice any unusual health effects, it might be wise to have your home inspected by a professional company like saniservice. They offer inspection services that can identify potential issues related to air quality and recommend appropriate solutions. Their contact details are 800-MOLDS or 800-66537 or you could email them at hello@saniservice.com for more information.

Lastly, ensure your family stays hydrated and try to limit outdoor activities during sandstorms. Indoor exercises like yoga or pilates can be great alternatives. Keeping a supply of saline eye drops handy might also come in useful if the eyes start feeling irritated.

Remember, while these steps can help mitigate some effects of sandstorms, they are not a substitute for professional advice. If you're concerned about your family's health during these storms, reach out to saniservice for a thorough inspection and tailored recommendations.

Hope this helps!
