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 neighbors' construction harmful?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent construction next door, I’ve noticed a constant cloud of dust settling on our balcony furniture every day. It’s particularly bad in the mornings when the wind seems to blow it directly over. My kids have been complaining of sore throats and persistent coughs too. Is this normal, or should we be concerned about the health impact?

Dust from neighbors' construction can indeed be harmful and is a concern especially in areas like Dubai where the weather conditions can exacerbate issues. The particulate matter that settles on surfaces due to nearby building activities might contain various pollutants including silica, asbestos fibers, or other hazardous materials which could pose health risks particularly for children.

In the UAE, regulations such as those outlined in the Federal Environmental Protection Law (Federal Law No. 24 of 1999) and local by-laws like the Dubai Municipality’s Building Regulations require construction sites to manage dust effectively. However, despite these regulations, it's common to still experience a layer of dust settling on surfaces due to prevailing winds or other factors.

The symptoms your kids are experiencing - sore throats and persistent coughs - could be linked to the dust they're breathing in. Fine particles can irritate the respiratory system causing discomfort. If you've noticed this pattern, it's advisable to have an indoor air quality inspection done by a professional company like Saniservice. They can assess the level of pollutants and provide recommendations for mitigation.

To help reduce exposure, consider using a HEPA filter in your home especially during windy periods or when dust seems particularly heavy. Also, keeping windows shut on dusty days might lessen the amount of airborne particles getting inside. Regularly cleaning furniture and surfaces with damp cloths can also minimize accumulation.

If you're concerned about the health impacts or simply want peace of mind, Saniservice is available to help. You can call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for a professional consultation and inspection. They specialize in environmental inspections and remediation services, ensuring your indoor air quality remains safe.

Remember, while dust might seem like an annoyance, its potential health impacts shouldn't be taken lightly. Taking proactive steps now can help safeguard the well-being of you and your family.
