Is poor AC duct cleaning causing our symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

Is poor AC duct cleaning causing our symptoms? It's quite possible. Dust storms can indeed stir up a lot of particulates that end up in your air conditioning system if the ducts aren't properly cleaned and maintained. In dubai, we've seen many cases where families experience similar issues post dust storms. The persistent cough, runny nose, itchy eyes, and stuffy noses are common complaints reported by clients after a storm.

The UAE doesn't have specific regulations that mandate regular duct cleaning but health experts recommend cleaning at least every two to three years or sooner if you notice a decline in air quality. Ducts can accumulate dust, mold spores, pollen, and other allergens which could contribute to respiratory issues especially for kids and anyone with allergies.

Firstly, I would suggest checking the filters on your AC units. Dirty filters are often the first culprit of poor indoor air quality. Clean or replace them as necessary. Then, consider scheduling a professional duct cleaning service. Companies like Saniservice can provide thorough inspections and cleanings tailored to our region's climate and dust conditions.

If symptoms persist after addressing these steps, it might be wise to consult an allergist for further evaluation. They may recommend testing the air quality in your home to pinpoint any specific triggers affecting you and your family. Remember, keeping indoor spaces as clean as possible by using HEPA filters can also help reduce allergens and improve overall comfort.
