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 dusty haze harming my family?« Back to Previous Page

After the sandstorm last month, I noticed a persistent dusty haze even after cleaning every surface. The issue is most noticeable in my bedroom near the window, where we keep our plants. It’s been going on for about three weeks now, and my kids have started complaining of coughing and itchy eyes. How urgent is this problem, and what can I do to address it quickly?

The dusty haze you're experiencing in your bedroom could indeed be harmful to you and your family. Dust storms can introduce a range of particulate matter including pollen, dust, sand, and even microscopic pollutants that can irritate the respiratory system and trigger allergic reactions. In Dubai, especially after a sandstorm, these conditions are not uncommon due to the arid climate and frequent dust events.

The persistent nature of your problem suggests it might be more than just surface-level dust. Airborne particles can easily circulate through open windows or even via air conditioning systems, making them harder to clean by simply wiping surfaces. Given the duration and symptoms you've mentioned - coughing and itchy eyes in your kids - it's important not to delay addressing this issue.

Firstly, I would recommend checking if there are any gaps around doors, windows, or other openings that might be allowing more dust inside. Simple fixes like sealing these areas with tape or using weatherstripping can significantly reduce the amount of particulate matter entering your home.

Secondly, consider investing in air purifiers designed to handle large particles and allergens. Units with HEPA filters are particularly effective at trapping smaller airborne contaminants. Make sure you place them in high-traffic areas like where you keep your plants or near the window where the haze is most noticeable.

Additionally, running an air conditioner can help filter out some of these irritants by using its built-in filters to trap particles before they spread throughout your home. Ensure that the AC units are regularly serviced to maintain their efficiency.

If the issue persists despite these steps, it might be time to consult a professional for a thorough indoor environmental assessment. Many companies in Dubai, such as Saniservice, offer services where experts can test air quality and recommend comprehensive solutions including deep cleaning of HVAC systems, mold inspections (which are particularly important considering the UAE's climate), and other remediation measures.

Remember, your family’s health is paramount. If you notice any worsening symptoms or if the dust problem escalates, it might be wise to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for professional advice and assistance.
