Why is dust still settling despite vacuuming?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last month, I noticed a layer of fine, almost invisible dust settling on everything inside my living room. Even after vacuuming twice, it still feels like there are tiny particles floating in the air when I light a candle at night. What could be causing this and how can I ensure a thorough cleaning?

Why is dust still settling despite vacuuming?

Dust particles can be stubborn and persistent even after thorough cleaning. In the UAE, particulates can originate from a variety of sources such as construction debris, sandstorms, and even local desert conditions that might bring in more than just typical household dust.

In Dubai, one common issue could be that the dust is fine and may not get fully captured by standard vacuum cleaners. The high humidity levels during summer months or the use of air conditioning can also contribute to a build-up of dust within your home. Additionally, if you have any cracks in walls, gaps around windows, or insufficient sealing at doors, these could allow dust particles from outside to enter and settle.

To ensure thorough cleaning:
1. Use a HEPA filter vacuum cleaner as it is more effective at capturing fine particulates.
2. Clean the air ducts and vents regularly, as they can be sources of dust re-circulation.
3. Dust your surfaces with microfiber cloths or dusters to capture even the smallest particles.
4. Ensure proper sealing around windows and doors to prevent dust entry.
