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 post-storm indoor allergens causing symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorm that blanketed our neighborhood, my son has had a persistent cough and runny nose. The air feels thick and itchy, even with the AC on high. Is this normal, or should we be more concerned about indoor allergens and irritants post-storm?

Absolutely, post-storm indoor allergens can definitely cause symptoms such as coughing and runny nose. The sandstorms that are common in the UAE, especially during certain times of the year, can carry particulate matter and pollutants into your home's air conditioning system or directly into your living space. This can lead to a variety of respiratory issues.

In Dubai, after such storms it is quite normal for the air quality to drop significantly, making it feel thicker and more itchy. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, you may want to consider getting an inspection done by a professional company that specializes in indoor environmental quality. In the UAE, regulations do emphasize the importance of maintaining good indoor air quality, but sometimes the effects of sandstorms can overwhelm your home's systems.

If you decide to proceed with a checkup, you could contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for a detailed analysis. They have expertise in identifying and addressing allergens and irritants that may be affecting your family's health.

In the meantime, try to keep windows closed tightly to prevent further outdoor pollutants from entering your home. Also, run your air conditioning on recirculation mode rather than bringing in outside air. Regularly cleaning or replacing filters in your HVAC system can also help reduce allergens and improve indoor air quality.

If symptoms continue, it might be wise to consult a healthcare professional for further guidance. Remember, proactive steps like these can greatly enhance the comfort and health of you and your family after such weather events.

Hope this helps!
