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 much does dirty ducts removal cost?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a persistent dampness in the corner of our living room near the vents. My kids have been complaining of stuffy noses and sneezing fits every time we turn on the air conditioning, which is pretty much all day during these hot summer months. Could this be related to dirty ducts, and if so, what should I do about it?

Dirty ducts can indeed be the culprit behind your issues. The dampness near the vents and the symptoms your kids are experiencing could very well point to an issue with the air conditioning system, especially if there’s a history of rain or flooding.

In Dubai/UAE, our climate conditions make it essential to maintain optimal indoor environmental quality. Dirty ducts can harbor mold, dust mites, bacteria, and other allergens which might explain your kids' symptoms. According to local regulations, it's advisable to have a professional inspection done to confirm the extent of the problem.

The cost for cleaning dirty ducts in Dubai/UAE can vary widely depending on several factors including the size of the system, severity of contamination, and the company you choose. Typically, costs might range from AED 300 to AED 1500 or more for a full system clean. For instance, Saniservice provides comprehensive duct cleaning services which include inspection, decontamination, and filtration checks.

To give you an idea, Saniservice charges around AED 499 for a residential air conditioning unit up to 2 tons of cooling capacity. Larger systems or more severe cases might require multiple visits, increasing the total cost. It's always best to get quotes from at least two providers to compare services and prices.

It’s crucial that you address this issue promptly as dirty ducts can lead to serious health issues, especially for children, elderly individuals, and those with respiratory conditions. Not only does cleaning improve air quality but it also enhances the efficiency of your AC system which could save on energy bills in the long run.

Given the importance of addressing such concerns, I'd recommend you contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com to schedule a professional inspection. They have extensive experience dealing with similar issues and can provide tailored solutions for your specific situation.

Remember, it’s better to invest in maintaining good indoor air quality now than to deal with potential health impacts later.
