Is duct cleaning needed due to dust storm?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last month, I noticed a thick layer of dirt on the vents and window sills in my kids' room. It’s really concerning because they’ve been coughing more than usual lately. Could this be related to the ducts? How often should someone in Dubai clean their HVAC system to avoid these kinds of issues?

Absolutely, the recent dust storm in Dubai could indeed have caused significant dirt buildup in your HVAC system. In the UAE, including Dubai, it's quite common to see an increase in particulate matter post such weather events. This can definitely contribute to more coughing and other respiratory issues, especially among children.

For optimal indoor air quality and to prevent health concerns like those you're experiencing with your kids, regular duct cleaning is highly recommended. In fact, the UAE doesn't have specific regulations mandating how often you should clean your HVAC system but it's generally advised to get a professional inspection every 1-2 years. However, if you've noticed an increase in dust and other symptoms like coughing, it might be wise to consider more frequent maintenance.

Given the recent dust storm, I'd suggest scheduling a professional inspection right away. Our company, Saniservice, can help with this.
