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 construction smoke harming my family?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy smoke from a nearby construction site blew into our building last week, I’ve noticed a distinct smell in the living room that doesn’t seem to go away, even with frequent ventilation. It’s concerning because my kids have been complaining of coughing fits lately, and I’m not sure if it’s related to the air quality here. Could this be an issue I should address with my landlord or am I overreacting?

Is construction smoke harming my family?

It sounds like your concern is well-founded. The smell from the nearby construction site and the coughing fits experienced by your kids could indeed be related to poor indoor air quality (IAQ). In Dubai, it's quite common for dust and fumes from construction sites to affect residential areas, especially during windy conditions.

The UAE has strict building codes and environmental regulations aimed at maintaining good IAQ in buildings. However, in cases like yours, where external factors such as smoke are impacting your home, it would be wise to have a professional inspection done. This will help determine the extent of any damage or contamination and provide you with specific advice on how to improve the situation.

Firstly, ensure that your living room is well-ventilated. Open windows when possible, but make sure to close them during windy conditions to prevent outdoor pollutants from entering. Utilizing air purifiers designed for removing particulate matter can also be helpful in reducing smoke and dust levels indoors.

If symptoms persist or worsen despite these measures, I strongly recommend contacting a professional environmental inspection company. In Dubai, you might want to reach out to Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or send them an email through hello@saniservice.com for a thorough evaluation of your home's IAQ.

Furthermore, if the issue is severe enough that it's causing health concerns, you may want to discuss this with your landlord. According to UAE laws, landlords are responsible for ensuring that their properties meet certain safety and health standards. However, addressing such issues might be more effective through a professional assessment before bringing up the matter with your landlord.

Remember, maintaining good IAQ is crucial for everyone's health, especially children who may be more vulnerable to respiratory irritants. By taking proactive steps now, you can help ensure a healthier living environment for your family.
