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 see an allergist for my son's asthma?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last week, my son's asthma has been acting up more than usual. The bedroom where he sleeps seems to be the worst affected—his coughing and wheezing are much worse there compared to other rooms. This is making me really anxious about how urgent it is to address this properly. Should I call an allergist right away or can we wait a few days?

First of all, it's great that you're taking your son's health seriously. After the recent dust storms we've experienced here in Dubai, it is understandable to be concerned about his asthma symptoms worsening.

While it’s important to monitor his condition closely, I recommend a few steps before scheduling an appointment with an allergist:

1. Immediate Actions: Since the bedroom seems to be more problematic, focus on cleaning and removing dust. Use a HEPA filter vacuum cleaner which can capture tiny particles like dust mites that might trigger asthma attacks. Make sure to wash his bedding in hot water at least once a week.

2. Environmental Control Measures: Consider using air purifiers with a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter in the bedroom and other living spaces. This can help reduce airborne allergens like dust mites, mold spores, and pollen which are common triggers for asthma symptoms.

3. Monitor His Environment: Keep an eye on indoor humidity levels; ideally, they should be kept below 60% to prevent mold growth. Use dehumidifiers if necessary and ensure good ventilation in your home.

4. Consult a Professional Inspector: Given the severity of his symptoms, it might be wise to have a professional environmental inspection done. This can help identify any hidden allergens or other issues in your home that could be contributing to his asthma. Here at Saniservice, we offer comprehensive indoor air quality assessments and remediation services for residential areas like Dubai.

5. Consult Your Doctor: While you may not need an urgent visit to an allergist just yet, it’s good to discuss these symptoms with a family physician or pediatrician. They can provide guidance on managing your son's asthma and might recommend allergy testing if necessary.

Remember, in the UAE, we're subject to local building codes and regulations regarding indoor air quality which Saniservice adheres to ensuring our clients receive top-notch service and peace of mind. If you decide to proceed with an inspection or other services, feel free to reach out to us at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for more information.

Taking these steps can help alleviate some of the immediate discomfort your son is experiencing and provide a clearer picture of what might be contributing to his asthma. Keep a close eye on his symptoms, and if they worsen or don’t improve, seek further medical advice promptly.
