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 sandstorms causing health issues at home?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorm that hit Dubai last week, I’ve noticed a persistent dry cough and my eyes are really irritated when I wake up. The windows in our second-floor apartment are always left slightly open to let in some fresh air, but now it seems like every breath feels like inhaling tiny grains of sand. Have anyone else experienced similar health issues during these storms or do you have any tips on how to protect ourselves at home?

Yes, sandstorms can indeed cause health issues at home. In Dubai and the UAE, the recent sandstorm has been particularly intense, leading to a noticeable increase in respiratory problems and irritation of eyes and skin among many residents like yourself.

In the UAE, especially during sandstorms, it's common for tiny particles from the desert sands to enter your home through slightly open windows or doors. These particulates can lead to dry coughs, eye irritations, and other discomforts as they are inhaled into the respiratory system. It’s important to note that while some minor irritation might be expected, persistent symptoms should not be ignored.

To protect yourself and your family during these storms, here are a few practical steps:

1. Close all windows and doors tightly to prevent sand from entering.
2. Utilize air purifiers if available; they can help filter out fine particles in the air.
3. Use HEPA filters for your HVAC system if you have one to improve indoor air quality.
4. Keep indoor plants as they can help with air filtration naturally.

If symptoms persist or worsen, it's advisable to seek professional inspection and remediation services. Here at Saniservice, we offer comprehensive inspections to identify any lingering issues that might affect the indoor environment. Our team is well-versed in dealing with sandstorm aftermaths and can provide tailored solutions for your home.

For those interested in our services or seeking further advice on managing indoor air quality during these storms, feel free to call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email us at hello@saniservice.com. We're here to help ensure your family stays healthy and comfortable through the storm season.

Stay safe and take care!
