Are sandstorms causing more dust and health issues?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent sandstorm, I've noticed a lot of dust settling on surfaces throughout our home, especially in the living room where my children spend most of their time. It’s hard to keep everything clean despite running the air purifier non-stop. The kids have been coughing more frequently lately and it seems like they might be reacting to all this dust. Have anyone else experienced similar issues after sandstorms?

Yes, sandstorms certainly contribute to higher dust levels and can have significant health impacts. In dubai/Uae, we've seen an increase in respiratory issues post-sandstorms due to the fine particles that settle on surfaces as well as inhaled by residents.

The recent sandstorm has left a noticeable layer of dust throughout homes, particularly in living rooms where children spend much of their time. It's not uncommon for families to experience a surge in cleaning efforts following such events but even with continuous use of air purifiers like those you've been running non-stop, it can be hard to maintain a clean environment.

In the uae/dubai, there are some regulations that address indoor environmental quality but they may not fully cover all aspects of sandstorm-related dust. It's crucial for families to pay extra attention during these times and ensure proper ventilation when possible, while keeping windows closed to prevent further intrusion of dust.

For those experiencing more frequent coughing or other symptoms in children, i recommend having a professional inspection done to assess the indoor air quality. At Saniservice.com, we offer comprehensive inspections that can identify sources of dust and advise on necessary steps for remediation.
