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.

What are the signs of construction dust?« Back to Previous Page

My apartment has had a strange smell for the past few weeks, and I'm starting to worry it might be construction dust. I've checked the obvious places but can't find the source. Should I get a professional inspection?

Construction dust can be quite troublesome especially in bustling cities like Dubai. If you've been experiencing an unusual smell in your apartment and suspect it to be due to construction dust, here are some signs that might help:

First off, construction dust often brings with it a distinctive odor - one that is described as earthy or almost musty. This can emanate from the fine particles of cement, plaster, paint, or other building materials that are released during renovation and construction work.

Another telltale sign could be the presence of visible dust on surfaces like window sills, furniture, or even in corners where dust tends to settle down. However, if you've recently cleaned thoroughly and still notice dust accumulating at an unusual rate, this might indicate a more serious issue.

It's also important to look out for health-related symptoms that may point towards construction dust exposure. These can include respiratory issues like coughing, wheezing, or shortness of breath; eye irritation; and even skin rashes in some cases.

Given the specific regulations in place within Dubai, it is crucial to keep an eye on these signs. The UAE has strict laws regarding indoor air quality and dust control during construction activities (UAE Law No 12 of 2009 for example), so if you believe your apartment may be affected by nearby construction work, getting a professional inspection could provide clarity.

If the situation seems severe or continues to worsen, don't hesitate to reach out. At Saniservice, we offer comprehensive inspections and remediation services specifically tailored for properties in the UAE. Our team is equipped with the latest tools and expertise to identify the source of dust and recommend appropriate solutions.

So if you're concerned about the smell or dust levels in your apartment, consider giving us a call at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email us at hello@saniservice.com. We can help ensure that your living environment remains clean and healthy.

Remember, early detection is key when dealing with construction-related issues. Stay proactive and take necessary steps to protect yourself and your family's well-being.
