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.

What could be causing the strange dust?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm a few weeks ago, I noticed a strange, dusty residue on the windowsills and furniture in my living room. It seems like something more than just regular dust—it’s almost like there were tiny particles that settled everywhere. What could be causing this, and how can I clean it effectively?

Strange dust can indeed be perplexing, and it's great that you're looking into this issue. In the UAE, especially considering the climatic conditions, there are a few possibilities for the peculiar dust you've noticed.

Firstly, the recent heavy dust storm could have brought in sand particles from the desert which might not behave like regular household dust. These particles can be particularly fine and might settle on surfaces more noticeably due to their size and weight. It's important to keep windows and doors closed during such storms to prevent this kind of debris from entering your home.

Another cause could be construction or renovation work in progress nearby, especially if you live near a building site. Construction dust often contains various particles that can be harmful, so ensuring proper protection is crucial.

Additionally, mold spores are another common culprit for unusual dust-like substances. Mold thrives in damp conditions and can spread through tiny airborne spores that might settle on surfaces. In Dubai, with its high humidity levels during certain times of the year, it's not uncommon to see mold growth, especially if there’s been any water damage or poor ventilation.

To clean effectively, start by thoroughly dusting all surfaces using a damp cloth or microfiber duster as they can trap particles better than dry cloths. Pay extra attention to window sills and furniture where dust tends to accumulate. For stubborn residues, a mild cleaning solution of soap and water may help, but be cautious with porous materials like wood which might need more gentle treatment.

If the issue persists or if you suspect mold growth, it's advisable to seek professional advice. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice can provide thorough inspections and remediation services as per local regulations. You can reach them at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or via email at hello@saniservice.com.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is key to a healthy living environment in Dubai. Regular cleaning combined with proper ventilation and addressing any moisture issues promptly can go a long way towards keeping your home dust-free and mold-free.
