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 up sandstorm dust or landlord's duty?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorms, I’ve noticed a layer of fine grit settling on everything from the windowsill in our living room to the furniture by the balcony. It’s been two weeks since the last storm, but the dust is still accumulating, especially in corners and hard-to-reach areas. Should I be concerned about cleaning this up myself or does my landlord handle such tasks?

Absolutely, it's perfectly okay for you to take charge of cleaning up the aftermath of sandstorms. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, sandstorms are a regular occurrence and can leave behind layers of dust that require thorough clean-up.

First off, it’s important to know that while your landlord might have specific obligations, they aren't responsible for every single task after a sandstorm. Especially considering the extent of the dust you've noticed, a good cleaning session is in order. This includes not only visible surfaces like windowsills and furniture but also hard-to-reach areas where dust may accumulate.

To start with, use a vacuum cleaner equipped with a HEPA filter to capture fine particles. The Sanyo UVC Air Purifiers or the Midea air purifiers are highly recommended for this purpose as they effectively remove even the tiniest particulates. Be sure to clean your HVAC system too; a clogged filter can actually exacerbate dust issues.

For surfaces, opt for microfiber cloths and water-based solutions that won’t leave streaks. In Dubai, where air quality can be quite poor post-sandstorm, it’s wise to ensure you’re using products that don't release harmful chemicals into the air. Greenpeace's recommended cleaning agents in the region are a good resource.

Additionally, given the fine nature of sandstorm dust and its potential for containing allergens or other pollutants, consider scheduling an indoor environmental inspection with Saniservice. Their experts can assess the overall quality of your indoor environment and provide professional advice on maintaining optimal conditions.

Remember, it’s not just about aesthetics; regularly cleaning up after sandstorms can help prevent respiratory issues and ensure a healthier living space. So go ahead, break out that vacuum cleaner, and get those surfaces sparkling!

Call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com if you need further assistance or to schedule an inspection.
