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 indoor allergies worsening after sandstorm?« Back to Previous Page

After the sandstorm last week, I’ve noticed a persistent dry cough and my throat feels irritated every time I come back inside from outside. The dust seems to settle on everything, even in my bedroom which is on the second floor. My kids have been complaining of sore throats too. Has anyone else experienced similar issues during these storms, or could this be affecting our health?

Desert dust storms can indeed cause issues for indoor air quality and lead to worsening of allergies. In the UAE, especially after such strong sandstorms as we have experienced lately, there is a noticeable increase in respiratory issues and allergy symptoms. It's not uncommon for people to report coughs, sore throats, and general irritation in their noses and eyes following these storms.

In Dubai and other parts of the UAE, post-sandstorm indoor allergies can be exacerbated due to the fine particles that get carried indoors. These tiny dust particles can settle on surfaces like furniture, electronics, even the walls of your home. They contain allergens from pollen, mold spores, and other irritants which can trigger allergic reactions. In a case like yours where you notice persistent coughs and throat irritation, it’s important to take action.

Firstly, ensure that your HVAC system is clean and free from dust accumulation. It's recommended to check and replace filters regularly post-storms to prevent these particles from circulating through the air. Keeping windows closed tightly can also reduce the amount of outdoor irritants entering your home.

Given the severity of symptoms you've experienced, it might be wise to have a professional indoor environmental inspection. This could help identify any hidden allergens or mold growth that may have set up shop during the storm. For such services in Dubai, you can contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or via email at hello@saniservice.com. They offer a range of inspection and remediation services to ensure your indoor environment is safe.

In addition to professional help, maintaining good hygiene practices indoors is crucial. Dusting surfaces thoroughly, washing bedding regularly, and using air purifiers can significantly reduce allergens in the home. It's also beneficial to keep plants away from windows or doors that may be more susceptible to dust entry during storms.

Remember, staying aware of weather conditions and taking preventive measures can go a long way in protecting your health. If symptoms persist after these steps, consider consulting with an allergist for personalized advice on managing allergies post-sandstorm.

Stay proactive and healthy!
