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.

Could cleaning residue cause my symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent deep clean they did in my living room, which has been going on for about a month now, I’ve started noticing a persistent cough and my eyes have been watering more than usual. It’s especially noticeable when I’m near their work area. Could this be related to something they might have missed or used that could cause these symptoms?

Could cleaning residue cause my symptoms?

Absolutely, cleaning residues can indeed trigger respiratory issues and eye irritation. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, we have specific regulations regarding indoor air quality and the usage of cleaning products. These guidelines are designed to protect residents from harmful substances that might be emitted during deep cleans.

The symptoms you're experiencing could very well be linked to residue left behind by your cleaning staff. Many common household cleaners contain harsh chemicals like bleach, ammonia, and strong acids which can release fumes and particles causing coughing and eye irritation. It's also possible they missed certain areas or used practices that aren't in line with best industry standards.

Firstly, ensure the area is well-ventilated to reduce exposure to any lingering chemicals. Opening windows and using fans can help. If symptoms persist, it might be wise to have a professional inspection conducted by a company like Saniservice who are experts in this field and familiar with UAE-specific regulations.

Saniservice can perform a thorough assessment of your living room environment, identifying any potential hazards from cleaning products or other sources. They will provide recommendations for safe practices moving forward and ensure the indoor air quality is up to standard.

Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com if you wish to schedule an inspection or have further queries. Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial for your health and well-being, especially in a climate like Dubai's where such concerns can be more pronounced due to the use of air conditioning systems.

Take care and stay healthy!
