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 storms harmful to family health?« Back to Previous Page

Since the dust storm last week, we’ve noticed a significant increase in dust particles even when the windows are closed. The living room and bedroom are particularly affected, and my kids have been complaining of sore throats and coughing more than usual. Have anyone else experienced similar issues or know if there’s anything specific we should do to protect our health during these storms?

Dust storms can indeed be harmful to family health. In the UAE, especially during dust events like those we've been having lately, particulate matter (PM) and other pollutants can reach alarming levels, affecting both indoor and outdoor air quality. The increase in PM10 and PM2.5 particles you're noticing indoors is a common occurrence.

In Dubai and across the UAE, these storms often bring with them sand and dust from desert regions. These fine particulates can irritate respiratory systems, leading to sore throats, coughing, and other upper respiratory issues—especially for children whose airways are smaller and more sensitive.

It's not uncommon to see similar reports of health concerns following such events. The UAE doesn't have specific regulations regarding dust storms as such, but it does emphasize the importance of maintaining good indoor air quality through various means like regular cleaning and using air purifiers.

To protect your family from these effects, there are several steps you can take:

Firstly, keep doors and windows closed during a storm to prevent outdoor pollutants from entering. Use air conditioning with filters if possible, as this helps in reducing dust circulation indoors. Air purifiers with HEPA filters can also be beneficial; look for models that have been tested and certified by reputable organizations.

Secondly, increase your cleaning routine. Dust and vacuum regularly, paying extra attention to areas where the storm might have brought in more particles. Use microfiber cloths which are effective at trapping dust without leaving lint behind.

Lastly, if symptoms persist or worsen, consider having a professional indoor air quality inspection. At Saniservice, we can help identify any hidden sources of contamination and recommend appropriate remediation measures. Our services include comprehensive inspections that can pinpoint the exact causes of discomfort you're experiencing.

Remember, while these tips are generally applicable, it's always wise to consult with healthcare professionals if you or your family members experience persistent symptoms during such events. If you need our assistance, please don't hesitate to call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email us at hello@saniservice.com.

Stay safe and healthy!
