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 dampness from windows cause my kids' coughs?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a strange dampness in the corner of our living room, right next to the windows where the water tends to seep through during heavy rains. My kids have been coughing more than usual lately, and I suspect it might be related to this issue, especially since they spend a lot of time playing there. Could this dampness be causing their coughs or is it something else entirely?

Could dampness from windows cause my kids' coughs?

Dampness and moisture issues, such as the ones you've noticed by the windows, can indeed lead to some health concerns. In the UAE, especially during our wetter months, humidity levels can vary significantly, leading to potential mold growth and other indoor air quality problems.

Mold spores are very common in our environment, but high humidity and dampness create ideal conditions for their proliferation. These tiny organisms can produce allergens that trigger respiratory issues like coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath, especially in children whose immune systems might not be as strong.

In Dubai, we see a significant increase in mold cases after rainy seasons due to the perfect environment it creates. If you suspect your kids' symptoms are related to this dampness issue, I would recommend seeking professional assistance immediately. A qualified environmental inspector can assess the situation and determine if there's active mold growth or other contaminants present.

If you haven't done so already, I'd suggest contacting Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) for a thorough inspection. They'll be able to take samples from affected areas and provide detailed reports on the air quality in your home. It's crucial to address such issues promptly as exposure to mold can worsen pre-existing conditions like asthma or bronchitis.

Moreover, it’s important to improve ventilation in the area by opening windows when weather permits and using dehumidifiers to keep moisture levels down. Regular cleaning of areas prone to dampness will also help prevent future outbreaks. Remember, early detection and prompt action are key to maintaining a healthy indoor environment for your family.

Taking these steps can go a long way towards ensuring that the air quality in your home is safe and clean. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need further guidance or assistance.
