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 harmful and what can we do?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy construction work started next door a few months ago, we've noticed an ungodly amount of dust settling on everything in our living room. The furniture, window sills, even my son's toys are covered in this gritty stuff despite us regularly cleaning. It’s making it hard to breathe and I'm worried about the long-term effects. How urgent is this issue and what can we do to mitigate the dust?

Construction dust is indeed harmful and can cause a variety of issues. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, the high temperatures and dry climate exacerbate the effects of construction dust. The tiny particles can carry allergens, toxins, and other hazardous materials that can settle on surfaces like furniture and toys.

First off, the issue you're experiencing is more than just an annoyance; it poses a serious health risk to your family, especially with children and young ones being more susceptible. According to UAE environmental regulations, construction sites are required to implement dust control measures such as water sprinklers, wind barriers, and coverings for material piles. However, not all contractors adhere strictly to these guidelines.

To mitigate the dust in your living room, start by implementing a few simple steps:

1. Regular Cleaning: Increase your cleaning routine. Use a damp cloth or mop to reduce the amount of dry sweeping that can stir up dust. Microfiber cloths are particularly effective as they trap more particles than traditional materials.

2. Ventilation: Open windows when weather permits, but try to do so during times when construction activity is lower to minimize exposure.

3. Air Purifiers: Invest in a good air purifier equipped with a HEPA filter. This can help reduce airborne dust and improve indoor air quality.

4. Dust-Proof Coverings: Cover furniture and other items that are prone to collecting dust with plastic sheeting or cloths until the work is completed.

5. Consult Professionals: If you find that the dust levels aren't improving, it might be time to call in a professional environmental inspection company. Here at Saniservice, we offer comprehensive indoor air quality assessments and remediation services. Give us a call at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for more information.

Remember, while these steps can help manage the dust, they may not completely eliminate it. The source of the problem is the ongoing construction activity next to your home. You might need to speak with the contractor to ensure that proper dust control measures are being taken.

Stay informed and take action to protect you and your family’s health!
