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 dust causing my kids' coughs?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a thick layer of dust settling on everything in our second-floor apartment. It’s particularly noticeable on the windowsills and books stored up there. My kids have been complaining about coughing fits every morning, and I’m starting to wonder if it could be from all this construction dust飘尘 entering through the open windows. Could this be causing their symptoms?

The thick layer of dust you're noticing could indeed be causing your kids' coughs. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, construction activities are frequent and can lead to a significant amount of airborne particulates known as construction dust or '飘尘'. These particles can easily enter buildings through open windows or unsealed areas, especially during rainy periods like what you've experienced recently.

Construction dust consists of tiny particles that include sand, brick fragments, cement, metal shavings, and other debris. These are often small enough to remain airborne for hours, if not days, after a construction site activity. They can settle on surfaces but also contribute to poor indoor air quality, which in turn might lead to respiratory issues.

In Dubai, the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi (EAD) has set standards for dust and particulate matter to ensure minimal impact on public health. However, these regulations are often more stringent at construction sites than they are inside residential buildings where the dust can settle.

Given your concerns about your children's coughing fits, I recommend you schedule a professional indoor air quality inspection with Saniservice. They offer services tailored for UAE environments and can provide detailed reports on dust levels, sources of contamination, and recommendations to mitigate these issues.

To take immediate action, close windows and doors during active construction periods if possible. Using HEPA filters in your home's ventilation system or portable units can help capture fine particles. Also, consider getting air purifiers that are specifically designed for high-efficiency dust removal.

Remember, it’s crucial to address this promptly as prolonged exposure to such pollutants could have adverse effects on your family's health, especially children and the elderly. Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a consultation today to ensure the air quality in your home is safe for everyone.

Taking these steps can help alleviate the discomfort your kids are experiencing and provide you with peace of mind.
