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 smoke harm my kids?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy smoke from a nearby building’s renovation work for two weeks straight, I’ve noticed a persistent acrid smell lingering in my living room. The air feels stuffy and thick, especially when the windows are closed. My kids have been complaining of sore throats and coughs, which has me really worried about indoor air quality here in Dubai. Could this be causing their symptoms?

Could renovation smoke harm my kids?

Renovation activities can indeed release harmful particles and chemicals into the air which may affect indoor air quality. In Dubai, where many buildings undergo continuous maintenance and renovation work, it's crucial to be aware of potential health hazards especially in enclosed spaces like your living room.

The persistent acrid smell you're experiencing could indicate high levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and particulate matter from the smoke. These pollutants can irritate respiratory systems leading to symptoms such as sore throats, coughing, and even exacerbating asthma or allergies – exactly what your kids are complaining about.

In Dubai, it is important to note that according to the UAE's Federal Decree-Law No. 31 of 2005 on Public Health, there are regulations concerning air quality in residential areas. Although these laws primarily focus on outdoor emissions, they indirectly imply a responsibility for maintaining indoor environments free from hazardous substances.

Given your concerns and the symptoms experienced by your children, it would be prudent to have an inspection carried out by professionals who can assess the level of pollutants in your home. This way, you'll get accurate information about what’s affecting their health and take necessary steps to mitigate risks.

Saniservice offers professional indoor air quality inspections with state-of-the-art equipment that can detect even trace amounts of harmful substances. Their team is trained to provide comprehensive reports and recommendations tailored specifically for residential environments in Dubai. Should your assessment reveal significant issues, they also offer remediation services to ensure a healthy living space once again.

Remember, the well-being of your family should always be prioritized. If you suspect that renovation smoke or any other factor could be harming their health, don't hesitate to act now by contacting Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or emailing hello@saniservice.com for more information and assistance.
