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 duct cleaning?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a lot of debris in the vents near our living room. The AC unit also seems to be working less efficiently than usual, even though it’s been cleaned this year. Are duct cleaning responsibilities typically the landlord's or do they fall on tenants here in Dubai?

Duct cleaning responsibilities can sometimes be a bit tricky to figure out, especialy in dubai. generally speaking, it's good practice for tenants and landlords to have clear agreements regarding maintenance tasks including duct cleaning.

in the uae, there aren't specific laws mandating who is responsible for duct cleaning. however, many rental agreements include clauses that state the landlord is responsible for major repairs and maintenances, while minor upkeep such as dusting vents may fall on tenants. it's crucial to check your lease agreement or rental contract to see what is stipulated.

that being said, if you are experiencing issues like decreased air flow from your ac unit after a storm, i would recommend having the ducts inspected by professionals. at saniservice we have seen cases where debris and dust build up significantly post storms, and it can greatly affect the efficiency of your system. our team can provide thorough cleaning to ensure optimal performance.

if you do decide to proceed with professional inspection and cleaning, remember that regular maintenance is key to keeping your indoor environment clean and healthy. many experts recommend having ducts cleaned every 3-5 years or after significant weather events like dust storms.

should you have any concerns about the quality of air in your home or business, don't hesitate to contact us at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com. we offer a range of services from duct cleaning to mold remediation and indoor air quality assessments.
