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 sandstorm debris harmful to health?« Back to Previous Page

After the sandstorm last week, I’ve noticed a layer of fine sand settling on everything in my living room—my couch, tables, even the books on the shelves. It’s concerning because it seems to happen more frequently than before, and now my kids are coughing every night. How urgent is this issue, and what steps should I take to address it?

Yes, sandstorm debris can indeed be harmful to your health especially in the UAE and Dubai. The fine particles that are kicked up by these storms can contain a mix of dust, dirt, pollen, and other pollutants which can irritate the respiratory system. In such an environment, it's not uncommon for folks to experience coughing, wheezing, or even exacerbation of pre-existing conditions like asthma.

In Dubai and the UAE, sandstorms are more frequent than in some other regions and the fine particles they carry can be particularly troublesome due to the high levels of pollutants present. For instance, there have been instances where storms brought in particles from construction sites, road dust, and even industrial emissions.

Given your situation where you're noticing a layer of sand settling on everything, it's important to act promptly. The first step would be ensuring that you address the immediate health concerns for yourself and your children. Regularly check air quality updates provided by local authorities or through apps like AirVisual which can give you real-time data about particulate matter in the air.

A professional inspection of your home’s indoor environment might also be advisable to assess the extent of the damage from the recent sandstorm and to identify any potential long-term health risks. In Dubai, companies like SanIService (call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com) are well-versed in handling such issues with expertise.

To reduce exposure, consider using air purifiers equipped with HEPA filters which can effectively remove fine particles from the air. Additionally, keeping windows and doors closed during sandstorms is crucial to prevent more dust from entering your home. Regular cleaning of surfaces, especially those where kids spend a lot of time like couches or tables, will help minimize the accumulation of sand.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is key, and with the right measures, you can significantly reduce the impact of these frequent storms on your family's health.
