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.

Who cleans dust in personal workspace?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a layer of fine dust on all the windowsills and even in some of the drawers in my office space. The landlord usually handles cleaning, but I’m not sure if this counts as a common area or if it’s part of our responsibilities since it’s within my personal workspace. Could anyone advise on who typically cleans these areas in Dubai?

In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, the cleaning responsibilities for personal workspace areas can sometimes get murky. Based on standard commercial agreements and local regulations like those found in the Labor Law and Commercial Tenancy Agreements, it is generally expected that landlords are responsible for common areas such as hallways, elevators, lobbies, and other shared spaces. However, when it comes to individual workspaces or personal offices, cleaning duties can vary.

Typically, the tenant (or the office occupants) are responsible for maintaining their own workspace including dusting, vacuuming, and tidying up. This would cover areas like your desk, drawers, windowsills, and any private storage spaces. If you notice a significant layer of dust on these personal areas after an event like the recent dust storm, it may be time to reach out to your landlord or property management for clarification.

Now, here’s where things can get a bit tricky. In some cases, especially in larger office spaces, landlords might subcontract cleaning services that cover both common and private areas, but this is not always standard practice. If you’re unsure about the specific terms of your lease agreement, it's wise to review it or contact your landlord directly for clarification.

For peace of mind and to ensure a thorough clean-up following such events, I recommend considering professional indoor environmental inspections. These can help identify any potential issues related to dust and air quality that might not be immediately obvious. If you decide to go this route, you could contact Saniservice by calling 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com. They specialize in providing comprehensive cleaning services as well as mold inspection and remediation.

Remember, maintaining a clean workspace is crucial for productivity and health. If you're not comfortable tackling the dust yourself or if it's been a while since your office was thoroughly cleaned, don’t hesitate to ask for professional help.
