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 the ducts to avoid allergens?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last week, I noticed a strange smell lingering in my son's room. The ducts run right above his bed, and I’m worried about all the dust and allergens they might be circulating. My daughter has been coughing more than usual lately too. Is there anything I should do to clean the ducts or is it something I shouldn’t worry about?

Absolutely, cleaning the ducts can be crucial to improving indoor air quality and potentially reducing allergens. In dubai/Uae, it's common to experience dust storms that can introduce a lot of particulates into your home’s HVAC system. The concern you've raised about the lingering smell in your son's room coupled with your daughter's coughing is not something you should ignore.

Firstly, it's important to note that in uae, there are no specific regulations mandating regular duct cleaning; however, maintaining good indoor air quality and a clean environment is highly encouraged. Dust and allergens can accumulate over time and get circulated through the vents, leading to issues like coughing or other respiratory problems.

To address your situation, I would recommend scheduling a professional inspection of your ductwork. This will help identify any potential issues such as mold growth or excessive dust buildup that could be contributing to the smell and symptoms you've noticed. In dubai/Uae, companies like Saniservice are well-equipped to handle these inspections with the latest technology and expertise.

Once an inspection confirms that cleaning is necessary, a professional service can perform the task safely and effectively. This involves removing the ducts from your son's room temporarily to prevent any dust or particles from entering his space during the process. The technician will use specialized equipment to thoroughly clean each section of the ductwork, ensuring that all debris and allergens are removed.

Regular maintenance is also key in preventing future issues. Depending on how often you experience dust storms, scheduling a cleaning every 2-3 years might be appropriate. However, if your family experiences frequent allergy or respiratory symptoms, more frequent inspections may be advisable.

Remember to keep the HVAC system properly maintained by changing filters regularly and keeping the area around the ducts free from clutter which can attract dust and pests.

If you decide to proceed with cleaning, please consider calling 800-MOLDS (or 800-66537) or reaching out to hello@saniservice.com for a consultation and professional service.

Taking these steps will help ensure that your family is breathing cleaner air in your home.
