Can cleaning ducts help our coughing babies?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm last month, we’ve noticed a persistent cough in our little ones. The ducts run through the entire house, and they look pretty grimy with all that dirt and debris from outside. Has anyone experienced similar issues or knows if cleaning the ducts can really help?

Absolutely! Dirty ducts can be a significant issue, especially following storms like the one we had last month. In Dubai and across UAE, our buildings are often subject to dust and sand intrusion through unsealed gaps or open windows during such events. The accumulation of these particles inside the HVAC system can indeed trigger respiratory issues in children, much like what you're experiencing.
In your case, it’s highly probable that those dusty ducts are contributing to your little ones' coughing. Dust, pollen, and other allergens can circulate throughout your home via the air conditioning or heating systems. When these irritants are present in high concentrations, they can exacerbate respiratory symptoms, particularly in young children who have more sensitive immune systems. Professional inspection is always recommended for such situations. The UAE has regulations regarding indoor air quality which mandate regular maintenance and cleaning of HVAC systems to ensure compliance with health standards. Companies like Saniservice, reachable at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com, offer comprehensive duct cleaning services that can significantly improve your home's air quality. During the inspection process, professionals will assess the condition of your ductwork and determine if any repairs are necessary. They’ll also clean out accumulated dirt, dust, and debris to ensure a healthier indoor environment for you and your family. Regular maintenance is key in preventing these issues from arising again in the future. Remember, while cleaning might provide some relief, it’s crucial to address the source of the dust—like ensuring that all windows are properly sealed during storms—to prevent future invasions. Also, consider using air purifiers as an additional measure to keep indoor air clean and fresh. Taking these steps can make a significant difference in your family's well-being, especially for those who may be more susceptible to respiratory issues.
