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 persistent cough and congestion be a concern after dust storms?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms last week, I’ve been noticing a persistent cough and congestion that won’t go away. The air feels particularly dry in my apartment on the third floor, even though I keep the windows closed to avoid dust. Should I be concerned about these symptoms, or is it normal to feel this way after such weather conditions?

Absolutely, persistent cough and congestion following dust storms should be taken seriously. In dubai and the uae, we've seen several cases where heavy dust events lead to respiratory issues among residents. Dust particles, especially those carrying allergens and pollutants, can irritate your airways and exacerbate existing conditions or trigger new ones.

In your case, given that you're experiencing these symptoms in a high-rise apartment, it's possible the dry indoor air is contributing to your discomfort. In dubai, we often see this during sandstorms when the humidity drops significantly, making the air more dehydrating for our respiratory systems.

You might want to consider checking if there are any specific allergens or irritants within your home that could be causing these symptoms. For instance, dust mites, mold spores, and even pet dander can linger in closed environments, especially during such weather conditions.

It's recommended you call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a professional indoor air quality inspection. Our team will help identify any hidden sources of allergens or pollutants that might be causing your persistent cough and congestion. Depending on the findings, we can provide tailored solutions such as air purifiers, humidity control systems, or even mold remediation.

Meanwhile, here are some immediate steps you can take:
• Use a humidifier to add moisture back into the air
• Keep indoor plants which help filter air naturally
• Regularly clean your home with HEPA filters vacuum cleaner bags for better dust collection
• Ensure proper ventilation when it’s safe to open windows

Remember, while these tips may offer some relief, a professional assessment is crucial. If symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical advice from an allergist or pulmonologist who can provide further guidance specific to your health.

Stay healthy and don't hesitate to reach out for professional help!
