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 from construction affecting my home?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy smoke from a construction site next door lingered for days last month, I’ve been noticing a persistent haze in my living room. Even with the air purifier running non-stop, it doesn’t seem to clear up completely, and there’s a slight burning smell that's concerning me. The kids have been complaining of throat irritation too. How urgent is this issue, and what steps should I take right away?

The haze you're noticing from the construction site next door can indeed be concerning, particularly given its persistence despite running your air purifier. This situation isn't uncommon in Dubai and other urban areas during such times of construction activity.

In the UAE, especially in regions like Dubai, dust and particulate matter from nearby sites are known to impact indoor air quality significantly. The local regulations under the Environmental Protection Law (Federal Law No. 24 of 1999) aim at reducing pollution levels but do not specifically address short-term spikes due to construction activities.

Given the symptoms you're experiencing - persistent haze, a slight burning smell and throat irritation in kids - it's crucial to take action right away. First off, ensure that your air purifier is running on its highest setting and consider adding a room with higher filtration capabilities if possible. HEPA filters are particularly effective for capturing fine particles that may be causing discomfort.

However, given the severity of your symptoms and the potential for prolonged exposure, it's highly recommended to seek professional assistance. A thorough inspection by an environmental testing company can help determine the exact nature of the pollutants and provide guidance on necessary steps.

Saniservice, a reputable firm in this area, offers comprehensive indoor air quality assessments that include sampling and analysis of airborne contaminants. They can also recommend targeted solutions based on their findings. To contact them, you may call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for more information.

In the meantime, keep windows and doors closed tightly to minimize outside air intrusion, use a HEPA filter mask if going outdoors is necessary, and ensure good hydration as it can help soothe the throat. Also, try to stay indoors during peak dust hours, which are typically early mornings and late afternoons in hot months.

Remember, your health and that of your family comes first. Act promptly to safeguard everyone’s well-being.
