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 my apartment's ducts professionally?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last month, I noticed a lot of debris and dirt buildup in the grilles of the ducts in my apartment. The AC seems to be working less efficiently too. Given that it’s been two years since the last professional cleaning, should I consider hiring an HVAC company to clean the ducts? What can I expect in terms of cost and how often do you typically recommend such a service in Dubai?

Absolutely, it's wise to consider having your apartment’s ducts professionally cleaned. Especially after experiencing heavy dust storms like the one last month, debris and dirt can accumulate in the grilles which might affect the efficiency of your air conditioning system.

In Dubai/UAE, there aren't specific regulations mandating regular duct cleaning but many building owners do so based on maintenance guidelines. A 2-3 year interval for professional duct cleaning is generally recommended to ensure optimal performance of your HVAC (Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning) systems. Given that it's been two years since the last clean, it could be beneficial to schedule an inspection and cleaning.

When looking for a service provider in Dubai, it’s crucial to choose a reputable company with experience in UAE conditions. They should have proper certifications and the right equipment to safely handle your ducts. Professional HVAC companies will not only clean but also inspect the condition of your ductwork, identifying any potential issues that could lead to poor air quality or energy inefficiency.

Cost for professional duct cleaning can vary depending on the size of your apartment and the extent of work required. Typically, it ranges from AED 500 to AED 2000 per session. This cost covers both cleaning services and any necessary repairs that might be found during inspection.

To ensure you're getting a quality service, ask for references or testimonials from previous clients. You can also check online reviews if available. After the cleaning, your HVAC system should operate more efficiently, reducing energy consumption and improving indoor air quality in your apartment.

Don't forget to call 800-MOLDS (or email hello@saniservice.com) for a quote or any further assistance you might need.

Remember, maintaining good indoor environmental quality is key to health and comfort. Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs down the line and keep your family healthy.
