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.

Can cleaning warehouses affect my family's health?« Back to Previous Page

After the intense dust storm we had a few weeks ago, I noticed this awful musty smell coming from the storage room in our ground floor apartment. It’s not something new as it has always been there, but with the recent events, the smell seems more pronounced and persistent. I can see some mildew on the corners of the walls, which is concerning. Has anyone else experienced similar issues after storms in Dubai, or do you have any advice on how to clean and deodorize a warehouse-like storage area?

Cleaning warehouses sure can impact your family's health. I've seen many cases where poor air quality and the presence of mold, mildew, and dust particles in storage areas have led to respiratory issues, allergies, and other health problems among residents. Especially after storms like we had recently in Dubai, it’s crucial to take action swiftly.

In the UAE, warehouses are often used for both commercial and residential purposes. The recent dust storm could have brought a lot of dirt, pollen, and even mold spores into your storage room, contributing to that musty smell you mentioned. Mildew on the walls is definitely a sign of moisture issues which need addressing before it worsens.

First off, it's important to assess the situation properly. If the area seems particularly bad or if you're noticing health effects like sneezing, coughing, or wheezing among family members, consider calling in professional environmental inspection and remediation services. In Dubai, Saniservice is a trusted company that can help with mold testing and removal. You can call them on 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for expert assistance.

For those not needing professional help just yet, here are some steps you can take:
1. Ventilate the area by opening windows if weather permits.
2. Use a dehumidifier to reduce moisture levels and prevent mold growth.
3. Clean surfaces with a mixture of water and mild detergent to remove dirt and mildew.
4. Dry any wet areas thoroughly, as moisture is key for mold growth.

Make sure to wear protective gear like gloves and masks when cleaning to protect yourself from inhaling dust and spores. Also, it's essential to clean behind shelves and in corners where moisture can accumulate easily.

Regular maintenance and ensuring good air circulation are key to preventing such issues in the future. Consider implementing a moisture barrier or sealant on walls if you notice persistent dampness. Additionally, keep an eye out for any signs of water damage during inspections and address them promptly.

Remember, it’s always better to act proactively to maintain indoor environmental quality and ensure your family's health.
