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 poor air quality causing my children's symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

The AC in my apartment seems to be running a bit differently lately, and it's been making this strange buzzing noise that didn't use to be there. My kids have both been complaining of headaches and are more congested than usual, even though I’ve been keeping the windows shut due to the rain we had last month. Could the air quality inside our apartment be affecting their health? What should I do to check or improve it?

Yes, it is possible that the air quality inside your apartment could be affecting your children's health. In Dubai and the UAE, indoor air quality can sometimes be compromised due to factors such as poor ventilation, humidity, and even allergens. The buzzing noise from your AC might indicate an issue with its components or filters which can affect how well it circulates clean air.

Firstly, the strange buzzing sound could mean your AC unit needs a check-up. Dirty or worn-out parts can create unusual noises that may not only be annoying but also affect the efficiency of the system in purifying and circulating air. It's wise to call in an HVAC professional from a trusted company like Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) for a thorough inspection.

Regarding your children’s symptoms, headaches and congestion can be linked to poor indoor air quality. In Dubai, during rainy seasons or after heavy rainfall, humidity levels can rise, leading to mold growth which is harmful when inhaled. Also, dust mites, pet dander, and other allergens can exacerbate respiratory issues.

To improve the air quality in your apartment:

1. Ensure proper ventilation: Open windows if possible, but keep an eye on outdoor air pollution levels especially during high traffic times.
2. Regularly clean or replace AC filters to ensure they are functioning optimally.
3. Use a portable air purifier with HEPA filters to capture small particles and allergens.
4. Maintain low humidity in your home by using dehumidifiers if needed, especially during rainy seasons.

Given the specific situation you’ve described, it might be prudent to schedule an indoor air quality inspection through Saniservice or another certified service provider. They can conduct a comprehensive assessment of your apartment's environment and provide tailored recommendations based on UAE-specific regulations.

Remember, keeping a close eye on indoor air quality is crucial for maintaining good health, especially in the unique climatic conditions found in Dubai. Regular maintenance and professional assistance can help keep your home safe and healthy for you and your family.
