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 exterior dust from windows?« Back to Previous Page

After the dust storm that rolled through Dubai a few days ago, I’ve noticed an awful dust haze settling in my bedroom window sill. The storm passed but now it’s hard to breathe when I wake up. My lease says "landlord maintains exterior," but I’m not sure if this is something they should clean or if I need to take care of it myself. Should I be cleaning the dust from the outside windows, or does that fall under their responsibility?

Hi there! When it comes to dust from exterior windows, the answer can vary depending on your lease agreement and local regulations. In the UAE, particularly Dubai, most leases typically state that landlords are responsible for maintaining the external aspects of the property. This usually includes cleaning outside windows.

However, what you’re experiencing sounds more like a result of the recent dust storm. It’s not uncommon for such storms to leave an accumulation of fine particulate matter on exterior surfaces, including windowsills and window frames. The fact that it's affecting your breathing suggests there might be some concern about air quality indoors as well.

Given this situation, you should contact your landlord first. Explain the recent dust storm and how it has affected your living conditions. A professional inspection by a company like ours can also provide clarity on whether there are any long-term issues or if immediate cleaning is necessary to ensure good indoor air quality.

If your landlord doesn't act promptly, it's within your rights to clean the exterior windows yourself. However, always use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and a dust mask when tackling outdoor tasks like this. Make sure not to damage any paint or other surfaces while cleaning.

Remember, in Dubai, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial for health, especially during dusty periods. If the problem persists despite your efforts or if you notice any unusual symptoms, don't hesitate to reach out for professional assistance at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email us at hello@saniservice.com.

Taking care of your health and comfort is paramount, so please feel free to contact us should you need further guidance.
