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 our symptoms from using strong disinfectants?« Back to Previous Page

After the intense cleaning session we had in our living room last weekend, my family and I have been experiencing some strange symptoms. The place was spotless after we used a lot of strong disinfectants, but ever since then, everyone has been complaining of headaches and dizziness, especially when they spend time in that area. Could this be related to the cleaning products we used? What should we do to ensure it’s safe for us to stay there again?

Hey there! Are your symptoms from using strong disinfectants? It sounds like a concerning situation and it's definitely possible that what you're experiencing could be related to the cleaning products. In Dubai, we often see cases where harsh chemicals can have an adverse effect on indoor air quality.

When using strong disinfectants in a confined space like your living room, it’s not uncommon for residual fumes to linger and cause discomfort or health issues among family members, especially if there's poor ventilation. Symptoms such as headaches and dizziness are often associated with exposure to volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in many cleaning products.

First thing you should do is ensure good air circulation. Open windows and use fans to ventilate the area thoroughly. Allow plenty of time for the chemicals to dissipate before re-entering. It's also a good idea to check the labels on your disinfectants and follow all instructions carefully, including wearing gloves and making sure the space is well-ventilated.

If symptoms persist or worsen, it might be wise to consult an environmental inspection service. Here in Dubai, you can call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) for professional assistance. They can conduct a thorough analysis of your living room’s air quality and provide recommendations on how to safely improve the environment.

Alternatively, email hello@saniservice.com for more information or to schedule an inspection. They specialize in indoor environmental quality assessments which could help identify any issues related to cleaning products and offer tailored solutions.

In future, consider using milder, eco-friendly alternatives that are less likely to cause such reactions. Products like vinegar, baking soda, and essential oils can be effective natural disinfectants. Just remember to still ensure good ventilation when using them!

Taking these steps should help you determine if the symptoms were indeed caused by the cleaning products and how to prevent similar issues in the future.
