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 dust storms harming my family's health?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last week, I’ve noticed a strange haze lingering around my living room, especially near the windows. My children have been complaining of itchy eyes and coughing more than usual, and I’m starting to wonder if it’s something in the air that might be affecting their health. Have anyone else experienced similar issues after dust storms? Could this be causing these symptoms, or am I overthinking it?

Haze from dust storms can indeed be problematic for indoor air quality, particularly in regions like Dubai and the UAE. The heavy winds that accompany these storms often bring in a mix of sand particles, fine dust, and other pollutants which can settle within your home. This can lead to some symptoms you're noticing - such as itchy eyes and coughing - especially among children.

In the UAE, we are particularly susceptible to this issue due to our geographical location and climate. Dust storms can occur frequently during certain seasons, bringing in particles that may not only irritate your family's respiratory system but could also potentially exacerbate existing conditions like allergies or asthma.

It’s important to note that such issues aren't uncommon - many people have reported similar problems after dust storms in the past. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to seek professional assistance for a thorough inspection and evaluation of your indoor air quality.

Here are some practical steps you can take:

1. Increase Air Circulation: Open windows slightly (if possible) to allow fresh air into the home. Use exhaust fans in kitchens and bathrooms if they are still functional after the storm.

2. Use Air Purifiers: High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters can help capture fine particles that might have entered your home during the dust storm.

3. Maintain Humidity Levels: Dust storms often increase indoor humidity, which can promote mold growth. Use a dehumidifier to keep levels between 30-50%.

4. Regular Cleaning: Dust and vacuum regularly to remove settled particles. Focus on areas near windows where the haze is more noticeable.

5. Professional Assessment: If symptoms continue or if you’re concerned about long-term effects, it’s wise to call in a professional for an assessment. Our company, Saniservice, can provide this service and also recommend any necessary remediation steps.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial for the health of your family. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need further guidance or assistance. Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com today for a free consultation.

Take care!
