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 fine dust particles from sandstorm harmful?« Back to Previous Page

After the intense sandstorm last week, I noticed a peculiar dust accumulation on all surfaces of my living room. It’s so fine that it seems to be floating in the air, especially when I turn on the fan. My kids have been complaining of irritated eyes and coughing, and I can’t help but wonder if this is making them sick. Could someone help me understand how to clean or filter out these airborne particles?

Are fine dust particles from sandstorm harmful?

The short answer is yes, they can be. In Dubai and the UAE, we are no strangers to sandstorms, and their aftermath often leaves a fine layer of dust that settles throughout your home. This dust isn't just aesthetically unpleasing; it can indeed pose health risks especially for children, elderly, or those with respiratory issues.

In such cases, particles from the recent sandstorm can contain pollutants like silica, which is found in sand and dust, as well as other fine particulate matter (PM) that might be suspended. These tiny particles are small enough to be breathed deep into your lungs causing irritation, coughing, or even exacerbating existing respiratory conditions.

For families in Dubai, it's important to take steps to protect yourself from these airborne nasties. Here are some practical tips:

Firstly, ensure you have a good air filtration system. In the UAE, you can find HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters that are specifically designed to capture even the tiniest of particles, including those from sandstorms. Check out local stores like Al Futtaim or Majid Al Futtaim for options.

Secondly, consider having a professional indoor air quality inspection. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice can help with this. They have expertise in identifying and removing contaminants that might be lingering after a sandstorm. You can call them at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for an appointment.

Lastly, keep your home clean by regularly dusting surfaces, vacuuming carpets and furniture, and washing curtains and beddings. Using a damp cloth rather than dry ones can help prevent particles from becoming airborne again. And remember to open windows only when the air quality is good; during sandstorms, it's best to close them tight.

Taking these steps will not just make your home more pleasant but also safeguard the health of your family, especially those who might be more vulnerable due to age or pre-existing conditions. Remember, prevention and preparation are key in our sandy climate.
