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 grit myself or report it?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last week, I noticed an awful odor coming from under my bedroom closet. The floor is covered in a layer of grit that seems to be spreading, even into the carpet. Given that this is our first winter here, I’m not sure if it’s just because of the weather or if there are issues with the cleaning staff not doing their job properly. Should I try to clean it myself or do you think they should handle it?

Well, it sounds like you've got quite the mess on your hands there. After such a heavy dust storm, it's understandable that grit might have found its way under your closet floor and into your carpet. Here are some points to consider:

Firstly, if this is your first winter in Dubai, you're not alone in experiencing these issues – dust storms can indeed be quite common during the season. However, it's important to ensure that the cleaning staff has been doing their job properly or at least adequately.

Regarding what to do next, I'd recommend assessing the situation carefully before deciding on a course of action. If the grit is just a thin layer and you're comfortable with tackling it yourself, you might want to start by vacuuming thoroughly to suck up as much of that dirt as possible. Make sure to use a powerful vacuum cleaner especially designed for deep cleaning carpets.

However, given the severity of the situation – including the mention of an awful odor – I would suggest reaching out to your property management or facility maintenance team first. They should ideally be aware of such issues and have the resources to address them properly. If they do not respond promptly, then it might be wise to contact a professional environmental inspection company for further advice.

In Dubai, you can call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com if the situation escalates and you suspect there could be mold growth due to moisture trapped under your carpet. It's crucial to address any potential health risks as soon as possible.

In conclusion, while DIY cleaning can help in many cases, when dealing with grit and odor after a dust storm, it’s often best to involve professionals who have the expertise and equipment needed for thorough cleanup. This way you ensure that the issue is resolved both safely and effectively.
