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 particles from dust storms harmful to breathe?« Back to Previous Page

After the dust storm we experienced last week, which seemed to settle all over our living room, my kids and I have been having persistent coughs. The fine particles are really making it hard to breathe, especially at night when the AC is on full blast. Have anyone else noticed similar symptoms or do you know if there are specific precautions we should be taking during these storms?

Yes, fine particles from dust storms can indeed be harmful to breathe. The recent dust storm that settled over our living room has caused a noticeable increase in coughing and breathing difficulties, especially for those like your kids who are more vulnerable. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, such storms can bring in particulate matter including PM10 (particles with a diameter of 10 microns or less) and even finer PM2.5 particles.

These tiny particles can penetrate deep into the respiratory system, causing irritation and inflammation. They can exacerbate existing conditions like asthma and bronchitis, and they've been linked to more serious health issues too. During dust storms, it's essential to take precautions to protect your family’s health.

Firstly, keep windows tightly closed during the storm and use air purifiers with HEPA filters if possible. These devices can help capture fine particles that might otherwise circulate in your home. Also consider using a dehumidifier; higher humidity levels can sometimes worsen respiratory issues caused by dust storms.

If you notice persistent symptoms like yours, it's advisable to have an indoor environmental inspection performed by professionals. In Dubai and the UAE, regulations mandate certain standards for indoor air quality, but these can vary. A professional assessment can help identify any additional risks or remediation needs in your home.

Should you need assistance with this, our company offers comprehensive inspections and remediation services tailored to the local environment. You can reach us at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for more information on how we can help ensure a healthier indoor environment.

Remember, taking proactive steps now can save you from dealing with more severe health issues later. Stay safe and take care of your family during these stormy times.
