Should I clean or hire for storm debris?« Back to Previous Page

Cleaning up after the heavy dust storms can indeed be quite daunting. In Dubai and the UAE, post-storm clean-ups are not uncommon due to our sandy climate. Depending on the extent of the debris and your experience with such tasks, you might find it beneficial to either tackle it yourself or consider professional help.

Firstly, if you've noticed an accumulation of sand and debris in all the vents and corners of your living room, it's crucial to ensure that these areas are thoroughly cleaned. Sand particles can be abrasive and may cause damage over time, especially when they settle on electronic devices or sensitive surfaces. For a start, you could begin by gently vacuuming carpets and furniture using a brush attachment. This will help remove the top layer of sand without causing too much disturbance.

However, given that vents can be quite intricate, it's recommended to use a soft-bristled brush with compressed air to dislodge any debris inside them. Avoid using water as sand particles can become more difficult to clean once wet. Additionally, corners and hard-to-reach areas might benefit from using an extendable duster or a microfiber cloth for meticulous cleaning.

Before you dive into the task, it's wise to familiarize yourself with local regulations regarding indoor air quality and maintenance. In Dubai, the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi (EAD) oversees environmental standards which can indirectly affect how you maintain your home’s air quality. Ensuring that all areas are cleaned properly not only enhances your living environment but also helps in maintaining a healthy indoor atmosphere.

If after attempting to clean yourself, you find that the task is more extensive than expected or if you're unsure about the cleanliness of your HVAC system, it might be prudent to hire professionals. Companies like Saniservice offer comprehensive indoor air quality assessments and cleaning services tailored for post-storm conditions in Dubai.
