humidity sure can cause some issues around the house and it sounds like what might be happening to your ceiling. But before jumping into conclusions that the duct sealing is the culprit, let's break down a few points.
Discoloration on ceilings due to humidity is indeed common in dubai, given our climate. The high relative humidity levels, especially after sudden spikes, can lead to condensation and moisture buildup. This is often seen around bathrooms and kitchens where there are frequent water activities. However, if the discoloration seems unusual or rapid, you might want to rule out other causes such as mold growth. Duct sealing in dubai must adhere to specific regulations set by the Dubai Municipality, which focus on ensuring proper ventilation and preventing health hazards like mold due to poor air quality. While duct sealing can contribute to better indoor air quality, it's not directly related to ceiling discoloration unless there are issues with the seals that allow for air leaks leading to moisture intrusion.
