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 ducts after sandstorms in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorms, I noticed a lot of dust and debris accumulating in my living room vents. The kitchen has also had a strange odor that I think might be from old ducts. Given we’ve lived here for two years, should I consider professional duct cleaning? What can I expect to pay for this service in Dubai?

Absolutely, after sandstorms in Dubai, it's highly advisable to clean your ducts. The recent dust and debris from the storms can wreak havoc on your indoor air quality. In dubai, we've seen a spike in respiratory issues post-sandstorms due to the accumulation of particles within ventilation systems.

The UAE doesn't have specific regulations mandating regular duct cleaning, but it's strongly recommended, especially if you live in areas prone to sandstorms or in buildings older than yours. The build-up can harbor dust mites, bacteria, and other allergens which could exacerbate health issues like asthma and allergies.

Considering your living room vents are already clogged with storm debris, and the kitchen has an unpleasant odor that might stem from old ductwork, it would be prudent to schedule a professional inspection. This will help identify if there's any structural damage or more serious issues within your ventilation system that could be affecting indoor air quality.

Professional duct cleaning services in dubai can typically range between 300 to 800 dirhams per linear meter depending on the extent of contamination and the size of the ductwork. For a typical two-bedroom apartment, you might expect to pay around 1500-2500 dirhams for a thorough cleaning.

Don't wait for more issues to arise—call us at 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com to schedule an inspection and get your home's air quality back on track. Remember, clean ducts not only improve air quality but also increase the efficiency of your HVAC system, potentially saving you money in energy costs.
