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 we protect kids from dust storms?« Back to Previous Page

Since we moved into our new home on the outskirts of Dubai a few months ago, we’ve had to deal with frequent dust storms. The bedroom where my children sleep is right by a large window that doesn’t have any shutters or curtains to close properly. Last night’s storm was particularly bad; I could see and hear the sand blasting against our windows. This morning, both kids woke up with runny noses and coughs. Are there any precautions we can take in our bedroom to protect them from these storms?

Protecting kids from dust storms is crucial for their health and well-being. In the UAE, especially in Dubai, we experience frequent sandstorms that can be quite harsh. It's important to take necessary precautions to shield your children from the adverse effects of these storms.

Firstly, it’s advisable to install proper shutters or curtains on windows near sleeping areas like your kids' bedroom. This not only helps in reducing the amount of dust and sand entering the room but also provides better insulation against noise. In Dubai, you can find various window treatments that are specifically designed for dusty environments; some even offer UV protection which is beneficial too.

Secondly, invest in air purifiers with HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters. These units can effectively remove dust particles and other allergens from the air, creating a healthier environment for your children to sleep in. For instance, models like the Honeywell HPA300 or Blueair Blue Pure 211+ are popular among families with children.

Thirdly, consider using dehumidifiers. High humidity can exacerbate dust mite growth and mold, which might worsen respiratory issues during storms. A dehumidifier will help maintain a more comfortable relative humidity level in the room—typically below 50%.

Additionally, it’s essential to keep surfaces clean by regularly dusting and sweeping your home, especially areas where your children play or sleep. Use microfiber cloths that trap particles effectively without spreading them around.

When the storms are particularly bad, try to keep windows closed tightly. If possible, use a damp cloth to wipe down any visible dust before it settles. This can prevent fine particles from accumulating on surfaces and making their way into the air you breathe.

If you find that despite your best efforts, there are still significant issues with indoor air quality or if symptoms persist among family members, don't hesitate to seek professional help. Contacting a company like SanIService (Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com) for an inspection can provide peace of mind and ensure that all necessary steps have been taken.

Remember, protecting your children from dust storms is not just about immediate relief but also about creating a healthier living environment in the long run.
