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.

Is dust from garden causing kids' symptoms? Safe cleaning methods?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms last week, I’ve noticed a persistent cough and runny nose in both my kids, especially after they play in our playroom which is right next to the garden. Could this be related to some lingering dust or mold? What steps should we take to clean the childcare area thoroughly without harming their health? Could you recommend any specific cleaning products or methods that are safe for children and effective against allergens and germs?

Dust from the garden could indeed be causing your kids' symptoms. The recent dust storms have likely kicked up particles that are now circulating inside your home, especially in areas like the playroom which is near the garden entrance. It's not uncommon for allergens and mold spores to travel through open doors or windows during such events.

For a thorough cleaning of your childcare area without posing any risks to their health, here’s what you can do:

1. Ventilation: Ensure good ventilation by opening windows (if safe) and using an air purifier with a HEPA filter to capture fine particles. This will help in reducing the concentration of dust and allergens.

2. Soft Cleaning Surfaces: Use microfiber cloths and damp mops for cleaning floors, furniture, and surfaces. Microfiber cloths are great at trapping dust without spreading it around.

3. Mild Detergents: Opt for mild, unscented detergents or soaps that are safe for children. Avoid harsh chemicals as they can irritate sensitive skin and respiratory systems. Brands like Mrs. Meyer’s and Method have products suitable for homes with young children.

4. Dust Collection: Use a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter to remove dust from carpets, rugs, and upholstery. Regularly empty the dirt collector to prevent re-dispersal of allergens.

5. Dry Cleaning: For stuffed toys or items that can’t be washed, use a damp cloth or a clothes steamer to clean them. Ensure they are thoroughly dried before storing.

6. Mold Check: After cleaning, check for any signs of mold growth in the playroom and nearby areas. Mold thrives in humid conditions and can cause respiratory issues. If you notice any greenish-black spots on walls or ceilings, it’s best to consult a professional for remediation.

Remember that indoor air quality is critical, especially when dealing with children who are more susceptible to environmental triggers. If symptoms persist after cleaning, consider calling 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a professional inspection and advice tailored to Dubai's climate conditions.

Taking these steps should help alleviate the current issues and make your home a safer environment for your kids.
