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.

Should I clean ducts after dust storm?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm a few weeks ago, I noticed a lot of debris and an unpleasant odor in my living room vents. It’s hard to tell if it’s from the storm or something else, but now that spring cleaning is on my mind, I’m considering having the ducts cleaned. Do you think this is necessary, and what should I expect to pay for professional duct cleaning services in Dubai?

Absolutely, it's a great idea to consider duct cleaning after the dust storm. In dubai and the uae, ductwork can accumulate a lot of debris over time, and storms like the one you experienced can exacerbate this issue. Dust, dirt, and other particulates from the storm could have settled inside your ventilation system, leading to the unpleasant odor and visible debris in your vents.

In the uae, there are no specific regulations mandating duct cleaning after a dust event, but it's a prudent step for maintaining indoor air quality. Given that you're already considering this during spring cleaning, here’s what you should expect:

Firstly, professional duct cleaning typically involves a thorough inspection of the entire system to identify any issues such as blockages or signs of mold growth. This is crucial in ensuring your system functions optimally and delivers clean air.

Regarding costs, prices for duct cleaning services can vary based on the size of your home, the extent of the work needed, and the company you hire. In dubai, expect to pay anywhere from 500 dirhams to 2000 dirhams per visit. This includes both residential and commercial properties.

To ensure a reliable service provider, opt for companies certified by reputable organizations or associations. Check if they have any certifications like ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers) which can give you peace of mind that the job will be done properly.

Additionally, it's wise to request before-and-after photos and a detailed report on what was cleaned and how. This helps in tracking the effectiveness of the cleaning process and future maintenance needs.

Lastly, if you notice persistent odors or signs of mold growth after the initial clean, consider having your ducts professionally inspected again as there might be underlying issues that need addressing.

If you’re looking for a service provider, don’t hesitate to reach out to us at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com. We offer reliable and professional duct cleaning services in dubai and the surrounding areas, ensuring your indoor environment remains healthy.

Remember, keeping your air ducts clean is a key part of maintaining good indoor air quality, especially after events like dust storms.
