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 is responsible for cleaning after sandstorms?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorms, I’ve noticed a layer of fine, gritty sand collecting on the windowsills and furniture in my living room. It’s quite noticeable, especially since we moved into this rental two years ago, and it seems to get worse each time there’s a storm. Given our lease agreement isn’t very specific about cleaning responsibilities, should I be responsible for cleaning up after these storms, or is that expected of the landlord?

Cleaning after sandstorms can be quite the task, especially considering how frequently they occur here in the UAE and Dubai. Generally speaking, it's a shared responsibility between landlord and tenant to maintain the property's cleanliness, but specifics may vary based on lease agreements.

In the UAE, particularly in places like Dubai, there are no strict laws that mandate who should clean after sandstorms. However, tenants have the right to expect their rental spaces to be in good condition upon moving in. If you've noticed an increase in grittiness since your move two years ago, it might be worth having a conversation with your landlord about this.

If your lease agreement doesn't specify cleaning responsibilities for post-sandstorm conditions, it would be prudent to discuss this matter directly. Clearly state that the fine sand is noticeable on windowsills and furniture, which makes the living space less appealing and potentially uncomfortable. Ask if there's any specific clause regarding such cleanup or if you both agree who will handle these maintenance tasks.

If negotiations with your landlord are unfruitful, or if you feel the situation is worsening over time, it might be advisable to seek professional help. A professional environmental inspection can provide a detailed assessment of the conditions and suggest appropriate measures. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice (you can reach them at 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com) offer such services.

Remember that regular cleaning is crucial in maintaining indoor air quality and protecting furniture from damage. Using microfiber cloths and vacuum cleaners with HEPA filters can be effective ways to manage sand accumulation. However, if the issue persists or becomes severe, don't hesitate to escalate the matter to your landlord or seek professional assistance.

In a nutshell, while it's common for tenants to share in cleaning responsibilities, it’s important to have clear agreements and ensure that both parties are aware of their roles.
