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 immediately due to kids' coughs?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, my kids started coughing more than usual. The living room, which gets a lot of dust due to its position in the house, seems particularly affected. Should I be worried about this? Is it urgent that I start cleaning or is there something else I should do first?

Absolutely, it's wise to act quickly given the recent dust storm and its effects. In the UAE, especially during such storms, increased particulate matter can indeed exacerbate respiratory issues like asthma in children. The location of your living room being particularly dusty is a red flag.

Firstly, ensure all family members are aware of any changes in their health. If coughing persists or worsens, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare provider familiar with the local conditions and regulations such as those from the Dubai Health Authority.

Given the situation, thorough cleaning is essential. Start by opening windows (if weather permits) for natural ventilation. Use a HEPA vacuum cleaner which can effectively remove allergens and dust mites. Dusting surfaces with a damp cloth can trap particles better than dry methods.

In addition to cleaning, consider using air purifiers that have high-efficiency filters designed to capture fine particulates. This can significantly improve indoor air quality in your home.

You might also want to check for any visible mold growth or water damage which can worsen asthma symptoms and is more common after storms. The UAE has specific regulations regarding building maintenance, so it's wise to ensure your property meets those standards.

If you find the situation overwhelming or if issues persist despite cleaning efforts, don't hesitate to call 800-MOLDS for professional mold inspection services or email hello@saniservice.com. These experts can provide tailored advice and remediation plans suited to Dubai’s climate and living conditions.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is key in preventing asthma exacerbations. Regular monitoring and cleaning are essential steps in keeping your family healthy during such times.
