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 improve indoor air quality after dust storms?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent dust storm, I’ve noticed a lot of fine dust settling on everything in the living room. It’s making it hard to clean, but more importantly, it feels like it could be causing some respiratory issues for my family. The filters in the air purifier seem quite dirty too. How can I better prevent this from happening again and keep our indoor air quality up?

Improving indoor air quality (IAQ) after dust storms is crucial for maintaining the health of your family. In the UAE, especially in Dubai, we often face severe dust storms that can significantly affect IAQ. Here are some practical steps to keep the air clean and safe:

Firstly, it's important to understand that dust storms can bring in a lot of fine particulate matter (PM) which includes micro-particles from soil, pollen, and even dust mites. These particles can be harmful if inhaled. According to local regulations and guidelines, maintaining good IAQ is not just about cleanliness but also ensuring the health of residents.

To start, you should regularly clean your air purifiers. If the filters are clogged with dust, they won't work as efficiently. In Dubai, it’s recommended that you change or clean your air purifier filter every 3 months at minimum unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer. For heavy use or after a storm, consider cleaning them more frequently.

Secondly, deep cleaning of your living room is essential. Use microfiber cloths and vacuums with HEPA filters to capture fine particles effectively. Make sure to clean all surfaces including curtains, blinds, and furniture. After cleaning, you might want to open windows if the weather permits for a short time to let fresh air in, but be cautious of outside dust.

Thirdly, consider setting up portable air purifiers in high-use areas like your living room or bedrooms. This can help reduce the concentration of fine particles indoors. Ensure these units are placed correctly away from walls and not blocked by furniture which could affect their performance.

Fourthly, keep an eye on indoor humidity levels. High humidity can promote mold growth, particularly after a storm where moisture might enter your home. Use dehumidifiers if necessary to keep the relative humidity below 60%. Regular monitoring of humidity with hygrometers can help you maintain optimal conditions for air quality.

Lastly, professional inspection is recommended especially if you notice persistent issues or symptoms like coughing or wheezing. Many companies in Dubai offer comprehensive indoor air quality assessments which can provide a detailed report on the current state and suggest measures to improve it.

In case of concerns, don't hesitate to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for expert assistance. Remember, good IAQ is about more than just cleanliness; it’s about protecting your family's health.
