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.

Are dust storms harmful to health?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent dust storm that lasted for three days, I’ve noticed a layer of fine, gray dust on the furniture in my living room, even though we closed all windows. The kids have also been complaining of sore throats and runny noses, which I suspect might be due to the dust. Should I be concerned about my health and the condition of the apartment, or is it something the landlord is responsible for cleaning?

Dust storms can indeed be harmful to health, especially within the context of the UAE and Dubai. These storms bring in large quantities of fine dust particles that are capable of carrying various pollutants like pollen, mold spores, and even tiny particulate matter (PM) which can be detrimental when breathed into the respiratory system.

In dubai, the frequent occurrence of dust storms brings a layer of grey dust onto surfaces and furnishings. This isn't just an aesthetic issue; it can lead to health concerns. Fine dust particles can irritate your eyes, nose, throat, and lungs causing coughing, sneezing, or even more severe issues like bronchitis if they are inhaled on a regular basis.

For residents of dubai or the uae, it's important to be aware that prolonged exposure during dust storms might exacerbate pre-existing conditions such as asthma, allergies, and respiratory infections. The recent 3-day dust storm you experienced could very well have contributed to your kids' complaints about sore throats and runny noses.

To address these concerns, i would recommend taking some proactive measures:
1. keep all windows and doors tightly sealed during a dust storm.
2. use air purifiers equipped with HEPA filters to clean the indoor air.
3. try to limit time spent outdoors when storms are expected or occurring.
4. if you have pets, make sure to bathe them regularly as they can carry in additional dust.

If your symptoms persist despite these precautions, it might be wise to seek a professional inspection for indoor air quality and to discuss the situation with your landlord regarding cleaning responsibilities. In cases of severe or persistent health issues, consulting a healthcare provider is also advisable.

Remember that maintaining good indoor environmental hygiene during dust storms can significantly reduce potential health risks.
