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.

Am I allergic to dust from air vents?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last month, I’ve noticed a persistent cough and wheezing, especially when I’m in the living room where the air vent is located. It’s been going on for about two weeks now, and it feels like there’s some sort of dirt or debris coming through the vents. Has anyone else experienced similar issues after cleaning their ducts, or should I be concerned about my family's health?

Hey there,

I heard your story and it sounds like a bit of an issue you've got going on. Dust storms can definitely cause problems in the air quality, especially if they lead to an accumulation of debris within your ductwork. In Dubai, we do have regulations that require regular maintenance and cleaning of HVAC systems, particularly after major weather events.

Persistent coughing and wheezing are concerning signs and could be linked to dust or other allergens passing through your vents. It's not uncommon for people to experience allergic reactions due to debris in the air ducts, especially if they have sensitivities to certain particles like mold spores, pet dander, or dust mites.

I'd recommend getting a professional inspection to assess the situation. We here at Saniservice do offer comprehensive duct cleaning and can also perform an evaluation of your system's overall performance. Our team uses advanced equipment to ensure thorough cleaning and disinfection. The call center number is 800-MOLDS or you could email us at hello@saniservice.com for more information.

In the meantime, try to keep windows closed during windy periods to minimize outdoor pollutants entering the house. Also, consider using an air purifier with a HEPA filter in your living room to help clean the air directly where it's affecting you most. It might be helpful to check if anyone else in the family is experiencing similar symptoms, as this could point towards something in the environment.

Take care and I hope we can resolve this for you soon!

Saniservice Team
