Is frequent cleaning due to dust urgent?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the sandstorm that hit our area a few days ago, I’ve noticed an unusual amount of dust settling on everything in my living room – even the windowsills that face away from the street. It’s really starting to worry me because it feels like every time there's a storm, we have to clean again almost immediately afterward. How urgent is this issue and what can we do to reduce the impact?

Cleaning due to dust after sandstorms isn't necessarily urgent but it is definitely something that should be managed effectively. In the uae, specifically dubai, we've seen an increase in dust and particulate matter during the dry months, which can lead to discomfort and potential health issues for residents.
The frequency of cleaning may depend on the severity of the sandstorm and your living conditions. For most households, a thorough clean once or twice after a storm is enough to ensure the air quality and hygiene are maintained. However, if you're noticing dust settling in areas that aren't directly exposed to the outside, this might be an indication of poor indoor air quality which can be concerning. To reduce the impact of sandstorms on your home, consider these tips: 1. Use an air purifier with a HEPA filter to help capture fine particles. 2. Keep windows closed during storms and check them regularly for any gaps that may allow dust in. 3. Use damp cloths or microfiber mops when cleaning to trap more dust and prevent it from spreading. If the issue persists, i highly recommend contacting a professional environmental inspection service such as 800-MOLDS (or call 800-66537 or email hello@saniservice.com). They can provide a thorough assessment of your home's air quality and offer remediation strategies specific to your situation. Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial for health and comfort. By taking proactive steps, you can minimize the impact of sandstorms on your living environment. |
