What an AC Cleaning Visit Covers

A routine visit for split and ducted units in Dubai homes, in the order our technicians work.

  • 1. Filters out and washed

    Return-air and unit filters are removed, washed and dried before going back in - the single biggest gain in airflow.

  • 2. Indoor coil and blower cleaned

    The evaporator coil and blower are brushed and vacuumed so cold air is not pushed through a layer of dust.

  • 3. Drain tray cleared

    Sludge is cleared from the drain tray, the usual cause of drips onto ceilings and walls.

  • 4. Drain line flushed

    The condensate line is flushed so water leaves the unit instead of backing up into the tray.

  • 5. Outdoor unit inspected

    Sand and dust on the condenser fins are checked; a separate condenser wash is offered only if the fins are blocked.

  • 6. Pressure and temperature check

    Gas pressure and supply-air temperature are measured. If gas is low, you get a quote before any refill.

What a routine AC cleaning covers

  • Filter and return-air grille washed and dried.
  • Indoor coil surface brushed and rinsed where reachable.
  • Blower wheel wiped down and checked for wobble or noise.
  • Drain tray cleaned and condensate line flushed with water.
  • Outdoor unit fins brushed off (split systems with their own condenser).
  • Supply-air temperature and airflow checked before the technician leaves.

Cleaning or chemical wash?

Choose cleaning when

The unit cools well and you are keeping it that way. It is maintenance, not a fix - the right job every three to four months.

Choose a coil wash when

There is a smell, weak airflow or black specks at the diffusers even after cleaning. The dirt is baked onto the coil and needs chemicals.

Not sure?

Book a cleaning. The technician tells you on the day if the coil needs a chemical wash, and you decide before any extra work.

Between visits: what you can do yourself

Wash the filter every month from May to October, and after every dust storm. On a concealed ducted unit it sits behind the return-air grille - usually the large grille in the ceiling of the corridor or living room. Rinse it under the tap, let it dry fully, and put it back.

Keep balcony doors shut while the AC runs; open doors pull in hot, dusty air and the coil pays for it. And set the thermostat to 24°C or above - each degree lower adds noticeably to your DEWA bill in summer.
