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 we clean up construction dust ourselves?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent construction next door, I’ve noticed a persistent layer of dust settling on everything in our living room. It’s barely been two weeks since they started working, and now my furniture and even the walls are covered with fine particles. My kids have been complaining about coughing fits too, which I suspect might be from all this dust. Can someone advise if we can handle cleaning this up ourselves or if we need professional help to manage it?

Absolutely, we can handle cleaning up construction dust ourselves. But first let's understand the situation and the potential issues it could cause.

In Dubai/UAE, construction activities indeed lead to a significant amount of dust that can settle on surfaces within nearby properties. This isn't uncommon, especially given our climate which can be quite dry, facilitating easy airborne particle transmission. The fine particles you've noticed on your furniture and walls are likely from the recent construction next door.

First step would be to take some basic precautionary measures like using HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters in your air conditioning system if you have one. This can help filter out most of the airborne dust before it settles on surfaces inside your home. Additionally, regular cleaning with microfiber cloths and damp mops could be effective in removing the settled particles.

However, given the duration since the construction started and how noticeable the dust is becoming, it might be wise to call in professionals for a thorough inspection. UAE regulations like those from the Dubai Municipality require certain standards of air quality during and after construction works, but ensuring your home's environment meets these guidelines post-construction can't hurt.

The persistent coughing fits experienced by your kids are concerning and could be a sign that the dust isn't just an inconvenience - it might be causing some irritation. Dust particles containing fibers or other contaminants from building materials can indeed irritate respiratory systems, leading to coughs and other symptoms.

Calling 800-MOLDS (or 800-66537) for a professional inspection would give you peace of mind and ensure the dust is not only cleaned but also that it doesn’t become a long-term issue. They can provide you with recommendations on how to further reduce dust levels, possibly even suggesting methods like dehumidifiers or air purifiers.

In summary, while we can certainly clean up construction dust ourselves, if the situation persists and affects your health, professional help is recommended. Saniservice (hello@saniservice.com) could be a good contact for this service in Dubai.

Remember to act promptly as prolonged exposure to such conditions isn't ideal, especially with young children who might be more susceptible to respiratory issues.
