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 indoor haze from fire harming kids?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy smoke from a nearby building fire last month, I noticed a persistent haze even with the air purifier on high. The living room, where my kids spend most of their time, has become quite uncomfortable to breathe in. They’ve been coughing more frequently and seem fatigued lately. Could this be linked to the indoor air quality?

Indoor haze from the fire near your home can indeed be harmful to your kids. The smoke particles and toxic substances can linger in the air even after a fire has been extinguished, especially if it's heavy or the area isn't properly ventilated.

In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, we adhere closely to regulations such as those outlined by the Environmental Agency - Abu Dhabi (EAD) which emphasizes the importance of maintaining good indoor air quality. The persistent haze you're noticing could be a sign that your home is still affected by the fire's aftermath.

It’s not uncommon for children to react more severely to poor air quality due to their smaller lungs and higher breathing rates. Coughing, fatigue, and other respiratory issues can be symptoms of exposure to pollutants from smoke.

Given this situation, it would be wise to consider a professional indoor air quality inspection. Such inspections are crucial in identifying the extent of contamination and ensuring that appropriate measures are taken. For instance, your home might need additional filtration or cleaning services to remove harmful particles from the air.

If you decide to go ahead with an inspection, I recommend contacting Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) for a detailed assessment and remediation plan. Their expertise can help ensure that your family is safe in their home environment.

In the meantime, try to limit your kids' time in the living room and keep windows closed to prevent further smoke from entering. Use high-quality air purifiers and consider adding some indoor plants which can also help improve air quality.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality isn't just about comfort—it's a critical aspect of health, especially for young children who are more susceptible to respiratory issues. Don’t hesitate to take action now to safeguard their well-being.
