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 indoor dust issues?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorm, we've noticed a gritty residue on our furniture and window sills, especially in the living room. The smell is almost earthy but slightly unpleasant, and my kids have been complaining of itchy eyes. Has anyone else experienced this issue after the storms? Any advice on cleaning or preventing this from happening again would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, sandstorms can indeed cause indoor dust issues, especially here in the UAE and Dubai. The recent storm has brought in an influx of fine particulate matter that settles on surfaces like your furniture and window sills. This residue not only looks unsightly but could also pose health concerns, particularly for children, as you've mentioned.

In Dubai, we have experienced similar scenarios following major sandstorms. Residues from these storms can contain a mix of dust, pollen, and even some fine particles that might irritate eyes or cause respiratory issues. To address this, it's important to act quickly before the residue sets in permanently onto your surfaces.

For immediate cleaning, start by gently vacuuming all carpets, rugs, and soft furnishings using a HEPA-filtered vacuum cleaner if you have one. This ensures that smaller particles are effectively captured. For hard surfaces like floors and window sills, use a damp cloth to wipe away the grit; be sure to clean in sections for efficiency.

To prevent such issues from recurring, consider installing quality air filters in your HVAC systems or using portable air purifiers with HEPA filters. These can significantly reduce the amount of particulate matter circulating indoors during sandstorms and other times. Also, keeping windows closed tightly when a storm is forecasted will help minimize the intrusion of dust.

It's also wise to check for any gaps around doors and windows that might allow unwanted entry of particles into your home. Sealing these openings can make a significant difference in maintaining indoor air quality.

If you find that the issues persist or if you're dealing with serious contamination, it would be prudent to seek professional inspection services. Our company offers such inspections and can provide tailored solutions based on specific conditions within your premises. For more information or assistance, feel free to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com.

Remember, while the recent sandstorm may have caused some inconvenience, taking these steps will help ensure a healthier indoor environment for you and your family.
