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 we clean the ducts?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last week, we’ve noticed a persistent cough and sneezing among family members, especially in our bedroom which is closest to the ducts. The air feels less fresh lately, and I can’t shake the feeling that it’s not just allergies. Should we consider having the ducts cleaned?

Absolutely, it sounds like the heavy dust storm last week may have stirred up some unwanted particles and it's wise to consider having your ducts cleaned. In Dubai, we often experience such storms that can send a lot of particulates into the air which might be contributing to the symptoms you're experiencing.

Duct cleaning is not just about aesthetics; it’s also crucial for maintaining good indoor environmental quality (IEQ). The UAE has specific guidelines and regulations around HVAC systems and air quality, including periodic maintenance checks. According to UARAS (United Arab Republic Air Quality Standards), it's recommended that ducts be cleaned every 3-5 years depending on the usage and environment.

In your case, since you're noticing a persistent cough and sneezing especially in your bedroom, which is closest to the ducts, there could indeed be an issue with the air quality. Allergens like dust mites, mold spores, and pet dander can accumulate in the ductwork over time and get circulated throughout your home.

I’d recommend having a professional inspection done first. This will help identify any specific issues that need addressing beyond just cleaning. A professional will assess the condition of the ducts, check for signs of mold or mildew, and ensure there are no other contaminants present.

If after the inspection, you decide to proceed with cleaning, make sure you choose a reputable company that adheres to industry standards. Saniservice is one such company I can recommend; they offer thorough duct cleaning services using advanced equipment designed specifically for the UAE climate.

Remember, while it might seem like a minor issue now, addressing potential air quality problems early on can prevent more serious health issues down the line. Your family’s well-being is paramount, so taking action to ensure your home environment is as healthy as possible is something you shouldn’t hesitate about.
