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 duct dust causing my children's nighttime cough?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I’ve noticed a persistent cough in both my daughter and son. The cough is more pronounced at night, and it really worries me since they seem to be fine during the day. The vents in our master bedroom have visible dust and debris, which has been there for months now. Could this be from the ducts? What should I do?

It sounds like your children might be experiencing some respiratory issues that could indeed stem from the ductwork in your home. In Dubai and other parts of the UAE, it's common to have dust storms which can lead to accumulation of debris within the HVAC system. The visible dust in the vents of your master bedroom is a red flag indicating potential problems.

In the UAE, regulations regarding indoor air quality are not as stringent as in some other regions, but it’s still crucial to ensure that your home environment remains healthy and safe for your family. Dust and debris in your ducts can harbor allergens, mold spores, and bacteria which may contribute to respiratory issues especially at night when the immune system is more relaxed.

Given the recent dust storm and the noticeable increase in coughing particularly during nighttime, it’s highly advisable that you get a professional inspection of your HVAC system. Such an inspection would help identify any issues with the ducts including potential blockages or contamination which could be causing your children's symptoms.

You can contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) for a thorough assessment and remediation if needed. They offer expertise in environmental inspection and remediation tailored to the local climate conditions, ensuring that your family stays healthy amidst such weather events.

In the meantime, try to maintain good indoor air quality by using a HEPA filter in your HVAC system which can help trap fine particles like dust and pollen before they circulate through your home. Also, consider cleaning or replacing your filters regularly as recommended by the manufacturer.

Remember, it's always better to be proactive about your family’s health. Don't hesitate to reach out for professional advice and take necessary steps to ensure a healthier living environment.
