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 storm particles causing our allergies?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a lot of fine particles settling on our curtains and furniture in the living room. My family has been experiencing more sneezing and congestion lately, especially when we spend time in that area. Could this be due to an increase in allergens from the storm, and what steps should I take to clean and reduce these allergens?

The heavy dust storm last week could indeed be contributing to your family's allergic symptoms. Dust storms can carry a myriad of particles such as soil, pollen, and other allergens into your living space, especially if your home has windows or doors that are not properly sealed. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, such storms can significantly increase indoor allergen levels.

Firstly, it’s crucial to assess whether the symptoms could be related to these storm particles. Allergies from dust storms usually manifest as sneezing, congestion, and itchy eyes. If your family has been experiencing more of these symptoms since the storm, it is likely that an increase in airborne allergens might be a contributing factor.

To reduce allergen levels, start by implementing some practical steps:

1. Seal Off Areas: Close windows and doors to prevent further dust entry. Use air purifiers with HEPA filters which can capture fine particles as small as 0.3 microns, effectively reducing indoor allergens.

2. Regular Cleaning: Dust the living room thoroughly using a damp cloth or microfiber dusters that trap more dust than dry cloths do. Wipe down surfaces and clean curtains gently to avoid stirring up settled dust.

3. Professional Inspection: If symptoms persist despite these measures, it might be wise to call in an expert for a professional inspection. In the UAE, companies like Saniservice provide comprehensive indoor air quality assessments which can pinpoint sources of allergens and recommend appropriate solutions.

4. Monitor Humidity Levels: High humidity can exacerbate allergy symptoms by promoting mold growth. Use dehumidifiers or ensure proper ventilation to keep your home's relative humidity between 30% - 50%.

Remember, regular maintenance is key in managing indoor environmental quality. By addressing the immediate issues and taking preventive measures, you can significantly reduce the impact of allergens.
