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.

Why is sand still coming back after cleaning?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last month, I noticed a layer of fine sand on every shelf and piece of furniture in our living room. It's been weeks, yet the sand seems to keep coming back, no matter how often we clean. We've vacuumed and dusted everything multiple times, but it’s still there. How can I prevent this from happening again or at least reduce its frequency?

The sand issue you're experiencing sounds rather frustrating. In Dubai and the UAE, we often face unpredictable weather conditions which can contribute to such issues. The fine sands from dust storms are notorious for infiltrating indoor spaces, making it challenging to maintain a clean environment.

Firstly, it's important to consider that despite your thorough cleaning efforts, there could be several reasons why sand keeps coming back. One possible reason is the presence of small cracks or gaps in walls, windows, and doors which act as entry points for dust and sand particles during storms. Another factor might be the location of your residence - if you're close to construction sites, natural areas with lots of vegetation, or even near highways, it could increase the likelihood of sand intrusion.

To address this issue, I would recommend a professional inspection by a building sciences expert familiar with the UAE climate and conditions. They can identify any structural issues that may be causing the problem and suggest corrective measures such as sealing gaps or adding additional weather barriers.

In the meantime, here are some practical steps you can take:

1. Regular Deep Cleaning: In addition to your usual cleaning routine, consider having a more thorough deep clean every few months focusing on areas where sand tends to accumulate.

2. Use Microfiber Cloths and Mops: These cloths are excellent at trapping dust and fine particles without leaving residue behind.

3. Install Air Filters: Upgrading your HVAC system’s filters can help trap small particles before they circulate through the air in your home.

4. Seal Gaps: Check for any gaps around windows, doors, or other openings and consider sealing them with weatherstripping or caulk if necessary.

5. Ventilation Control: Ensure that your ventilation systems are functioning properly to prevent moisture build-up which can attract dust particles.

6. Regular Maintenance of Exterior Surfaces: Regularly clean the exterior of your home, including windowsills, to reduce the amount of sand that could potentially enter through open windows.

7. Consult with Professionals: If you find it challenging to manage this issue on your own, consider reaching out for professional help. Our team at Saniservice can provide expert advice and solutions tailored specifically for Dubai's climate and conditions.

Remember, maintaining indoor environmental quality is crucial, especially in a place like the UAE where we experience extreme weather fluctuations.
