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 haze causing respiratory issues?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy winds and sandstorm we had last week, there’s a persistent haze outside our balcony windows that looks almost like a light dusting of soot. My daughter has been complaining of itchy eyes and a sore throat since we opened the sliding doors to air out the place yesterday. Could this be related to cleaning or maintaining the coastal environment here in Dubai?

Absolutely, the haze you're noticing could indeed be linked to the coastal environment here in Dubai. The recent sandstorm has left behind a layer of fine particulate matter that can easily make its way into your home and cause respiratory issues—especially for those who have sensitive systems like your daughter.

In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, there are strict regulations regarding indoor air quality and building maintenance to ensure the health and well-being of residents. However, natural events such as sandstorms often pose unique challenges that can temporarily compromise these standards.

The particulates you're seeing outside could include salt from the sea, dust particles, and even some pollutants from construction sites or nearby industries. These tiny particles can irritate your eyes, nose, throat, and lungs, leading to symptoms like itchy eyes and sore throats, which your daughter is experiencing.

To address this situation effectively, I recommend taking a few steps:
1. Keep windows closed and use air purifiers with HEPA filters to capture fine particulates.
2. Encourage the use of saline nasal sprays or neti pots to help clear nasal passages.
3. Stay hydrated as this can soothe irritated throats.

For more serious cases, it's wise to schedule a professional inspection. Our company, Saniservice, offers indoor air quality assessments and can identify if there are any underlying issues that need attention beyond just the recent sandstorm effects. We're here to help ensure your home remains a healthy environment for you and your family.

If you decide to reach out to us or have concerns about mold growth due to these conditions, don't hesitate to give us a call at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com. We're here to support you through this and any other environmental challenges.

Remember, taking proactive steps now can help prevent more serious health issues down the line. Stay safe and healthy!
