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 often should we clean for mildew in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy monsoon season last month, I noticed a lot of dust and mildew in our coworking space at home. We’ve only had it for about six months, but there’s already quite a bit of buildup on the furniture and surfaces. Given that we’re both busy professionals, hiring someone to clean it thoroughly seems like a good idea, but we're unsure about the costs and how often we should do this. How much can I expect to pay for professional cleaning services in Dubai, and what would you recommend in terms of frequency?

Cleaning for mildew can be a bit tricky, especially after heavy monsoon seasons which have been pretty common in Dubai. In your case, since you've only had the coworking space for about six months and already notice dust and mildew buildup, it's definitely worth considering professional cleaning services.

Typically, in Dubai and the UAE, professionals charge around AED 200 to AED 500 per hour for indoor cleaning. This can vary depending on the size of your coworking space, the extent of the dirt, and if there are any specific areas that need extra attention like carpets or upholstery. If you're looking at a one-off thorough clean up, expect to pay between AED 1,500 to AED 3,000 depending on the above factors.

In terms of frequency, it's wise to establish a regular maintenance schedule rather than just reacting after every monsoon season. A rule of thumb would be to have your space professionally cleaned at least twice a year, especially in areas prone to humidity and dust accumulation. Given that you've experienced mildew growth already, it might make sense to do this quarterly or even bi-monthly for the first few months until you establish a baseline cleanliness.

It's also advisable to conduct an inspection by professionals who can assess the overall environmental quality of your space. This is especially important in Dubai where air conditioning systems and humidity control are crucial factors that can contribute to mold growth if not properly maintained.

Remember, keeping a clean and hygienic environment isn't just about aesthetics; it’s about maintaining good indoor air quality which can significantly impact health and productivity. So, make sure you’re taking the necessary steps to ensure your coworkers have a healthy working environment.

Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for more information on professional cleaning services tailored to Dubai's climate and needs.

Lastly, consider using dehumidifiers and ensuring proper ventilation in your coworking space. This can help prevent mildew from reappearing between cleanings.
