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.

How can I better seal my house during dust storms?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm that hit Dubai last week, I noticed a fine layer of dirt on the shelves in our bedroom. It’s strange because we usually keep all windows closed during such storms, but there seems to be some small cracks or gaps allowing the sand in. The kids have been complaining about their throats and eyes being irritated too. Are there any tips for sealing up the house better during dust storms?

Well, firstly it’s great that you're aware of the issue and looking to improve your house's sealing capabilities. Dust storms can indeed be quite troublesome here in Dubai, especially during their peak season from November to April. Given how fine the dust particles are, they can still find their way inside even with closed windows.

To start off, ensure all doors and windows have a proper seal. In my experience, rubber weatherstripping around doors and windows is essential. This not only helps in keeping out the dust but also improves energy efficiency by reducing air leakage. For those pesky gaps you've noticed, consider applying silicone caulk or foam sealant to patch up any openings that might be letting in the sand.

Another tip: invest in good quality window shutters or blinds if they aren’t already installed. These can act as a barrier against dust and keep the house cooler during summer months. Also, consider investing in air purifiers with HEPA filters. They can help remove fine particles from the air inside your home, making it more comfortable for you and your family.

It's important to check for other potential entry points like gaps around pipes or electrical outlets. Seal these up as well using appropriate materials. Remember, the key is to create a barrier that dust cannot penetrate.

Furthermore, regularly cleaning your HVAC system can help minimize the amount of dust circulating inside your home. A professional inspection might be warranted if you're experiencing persistent issues; call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for an expert assessment and advice tailored specifically to Dubai’s climate.

Lastly, keep a close eye on weather forecasts during dust storm season. If a storm is headed our way, try to stay indoors as much as possible and keep your windows closed even if it looks like the storm isn't going to be as bad as expected.

With these steps in place, you should see an improvement in the quality of air inside your home. Stay safe and healthy during those dusty days!
