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 be worried about dust and allergies?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last week, I noticed a lot of dust bunnies piling up under the furniture in my living room. My kids have been complaining about their itchy eyes and runny noses ever since we moved into this rental two years ago, but it’s gotten worse recently. The landlord hasn’t mentioned anything about deep cleaning or allergy issues. Should I be concerned about my health and my children's?

Absolutely, dust and allergies should be of great concern especially after the recent heavy dust storms we've experienced here in Dubai. Allergens like dust mites, pollen, pet dander, and mold spores can significantly impact respiratory health and may worsen existing allergy or asthma conditions.

In the UAE, particularly in a rental property that's been through such weather events, it’s crucial to maintain indoor air quality and cleanliness. Dust bunnies under furniture can harbour dust mites – tiny bugs that thrive on dead skin cells from humans and pets. These can trigger allergic reactions including itchy eyes, runny nose, and general discomfort for your kids.

Given the symptoms you've observed and considering the recent dust storms, I would recommend scheduling a professional inspection to identify any potential issues like mold growth or pest infestations. The Abu Dhabi Environmental and Energy Agency (AEEA) has set guidelines for indoor air quality but it's best to consult with a local expert who can assess your specific situation.

Deep cleaning is essential; however, it should be done carefully to avoid stirring up more dust. Using HEPA filters in vacuum cleaners helps capture tiny particles that regular filters might miss. Additionally, using microfiber cloths and damp mops can aid in reducing dust and allergen levels.

Regularly airing out the home during non-allergenic times (if you have a good air filter) or keeping windows closed with high-efficiency window filters could also be beneficial.

If the situation persists despite your efforts, it might be time to consider calling 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for professional assistance. They can provide thorough cleaning and inspection services tailored to address allergy concerns in Dubai's climate.

Always ensure that any contractor you hire is certified and follows local health and safety standards set by the government. Regular maintenance and attention to indoor air quality can significantly improve your family’s comfort and health, especially during seasons with high dust levels or after severe weather events like those we've recently experienced.
