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 renovation materials cause our health issues?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent renovation of our restaurant space, we’ve noticed a persistent musty smell that lingers even after thorough cleaning. The air conditioning seems to circulate it throughout the place, and my family has been experiencing coughing and nasal irritation since then. Could this be due to improper cleaning methods or materials used during the renovation? What should I do to ensure our health isn’t compromised?

Absolutely, the renovation materials could be causing your health issues. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, it's quite common for new construction and renovations to involve a variety of materials that might emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or other chemicals over time. These emissions can lead to odors like mustiness and can also cause respiratory irritation and coughing.

Firstly, you should consider the types of materials used in your restaurant's renovation. Common culprits include paints, adhesives, sealants, and even certain types of flooring or insulation that might off-gas harmful substances. In Dubai, there are specific regulations around indoor air quality but it’s always wise to consult with a professional who can assess the situation.

If you're experiencing persistent health issues like coughing and nasal irritation, I would recommend scheduling an inspection by a qualified environmental expert. Such professionals can conduct air quality tests and identify potential sources of contamination or harmful emissions from your renovation materials. In Dubai, you might want to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for assistance.

Additionally, it’s crucial to ensure proper ventilation during the renovation process and after. Ensure that your air conditioning system is functioning optimally and consider using a HEPA filter to help purify the air. Regular cleaning with non-toxic, biodegradable products can also reduce the risk of allergens and irritants lingering in your space.

In conclusion, don't hesitate to take action if you suspect that renovation materials are compromising your health. Early intervention is key, so get in touch with a professional who can help diagnose and resolve the issue.
