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 indoor haze from storm harming family?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last month, I noticed a strange haze lingering in our living room. The air feels thicker than usual, especially when we turn on the AC. My kids have been coughing more frequently lately, which makes me worry it might be related to the indoor air quality here. Has anyone else experienced similar issues or know what could be causing this?

The haze you're noticing could indeed be related to the recent dust storm we experienced. In Dubai and the UAE, such storms can cause an increase in particulate matter (PM) levels, which might linger indoors due to the air conditioning systems recirculating the air. This is especially concerning for families with children as they may have more sensitive respiratory systems.

The PM10 and PM2.5 particles that are present from dust storms can trigger coughing and other respiratory issues. According to regulations in the UAE, indoor air quality should be monitored to ensure it's safe for occupants. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines suggest that particulate levels exceeding 150 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m³) may indicate poor air quality.

Given your concerns, I would recommend you get a professional inspection done by calling 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com. They can help assess the current indoor air quality and provide recommendations on improving it. Meanwhile, here are some practical steps you can take:

1. Increase ventilation: Open windows during non-stormy periods to allow fresh air into your home.
2. Use an air purifier: Invest in a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter that can capture fine particles.
3. Clean frequently: Dust and vacuum regularly, especially with a HEPA-filter equipped cleaner.
4. Avoid activities that generate dust: Try not to use carpets or rugs that can trap dust.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial for your family’s health. If you notice any worsening symptoms in yourself or your kids, it's best to consult a healthcare professional. Stay safe and healthy!
