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 seek professional help for basement dampness?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a strange dampness in the basement of our apartment, despite using dehumidifiers. The air feels heavy and stale, even with the fans running constantly. My kids have been complaining of itchy eyes and runny noses, which worries me as we just moved here 2 years ago and haven’t had these issues before. Do you think I can handle this myself or should I seek professional help?

Absolutely, it sounds like you're dealing with a potentially serious situation. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, humidity can be quite high which could explain the dampness and heavy air you're experiencing. This isn't uncommon given our climate but the complaints from your kids suggest there might be more at play here.

Firstly, it's important to understand that dehumidifiers alone may not always address the root cause of moisture in basements. In Dubai, where we experience a high level of rainfall and humidity, especially after storms, moisture can penetrate through walls, floors, or even from underground water sources. This could lead to mold growth which is known to trigger respiratory issues such as allergies and asthma - exactly what your kids are experiencing.

Given the symptoms your children have mentioned, it's highly recommended that you seek professional help. An expert inspection can identify if there’s a persistent moisture problem beyond what dehumidifiers can handle. They would also check for signs of mold which is particularly problematic in our climate.

In Dubai, local building regulations do not allow for mold growth to go unchecked as it poses significant health risks. The UAE Ministry of Climate Change and Environment has stringent standards regarding indoor air quality and moisture management.

If you decide to go the professional route, don't hesitate to call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com. Their team can conduct a thorough assessment of your basement's condition and provide solutions tailored for the UAE climate. They'll also ensure that any remediation measures taken are in line with local regulations.

Remember, addressing this issue now could prevent more serious health concerns down the road and protect the integrity of your home. Don't wait; take action to ensure a healthier indoor environment for you and your family.
