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

After the recent dust storm, my kids have been complaining about itchy eyes and a persistent cough. The house feels stuffy even with the AC on, and there’s this weird dusty smell in the air that I can’t shake off, especially when we get home from school. Has anyone else experienced this or have any tips on how to clean up the dust without making things worse for my family?

Dust storms can indeed pose health risks especially to families in the UAE and Dubai. The recent dust storm you experienced could have brought a lot of particulate matter into your home, including dust, pollen, and even some sand particles. These can irritate eyes, nose, and throat leading to symptoms like itchy eyes and persistent coughs.

It’s important to keep your home clean post-dust storm events. Start by opening windows and running an air purifier to clear out any lingering dust or allergens. Regularly cleaning surfaces with a damp cloth will help remove visible debris. However, make sure not to overdo the cleaning as it can stir up more dust into the air.

For those experiencing stuffy homes despite AC use, check if your air conditioning filters are clean and replace them if necessary. A dirty filter can increase humidity levels which in turn, can cause mold growth - something we see quite often here in Dubai due to high humidity even during winter months.

If you find yourself unable to clear the dust or notice symptoms persisting among family members, it’s wise to call in a professional for an inspection and remediation. At Saniservice, we offer expert indoor environmental assessments that can help identify any hidden issues like mold growth which might not be visible yet could be causing health problems.

Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com if you need our help. Our team is here to ensure your family’s health and comfort in the warm months of Dubai.
