Why does dust accumulate so fast after opening windows?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the Ramadan iftars, I’ve noticed a lot of dust settling on all the surfaces in my living room near the windows. It’s especially noticeable on the coffee table where my kids do their homework. Despite regular cleaning, it seems to build up quickly after we open the blinds to let in more light during the evenings. How can I prevent this dust from accumulating so rapidly and maintain a clean space for the whole family?

Dust accumulation is a common challenge in many parts of the UAE and Dubai, especially during Ramadan. This is due to several factors including temperature changes, humidity levels, and the increase in outdoor activity once windows are opened.
During the day, as temperatures rise, air movement can stir up dust particles from surfaces and floors. When you open your windows for iftars, this process accelerates. The breeze brings in additional dust that mixes with what's already on surfaces. This is why you notice a more rapid accumulation of dust compared to times when windows are closed. To tackle this issue effectively, it’s crucial to implement some preventive measures: Firstly, consider using air purifiers and humidifiers during Ramadan to control the indoor environment. Air purifiers can help filter out particles that might be blown in through open windows while a humidifier can keep the air from drying out too much which often leads to more dust settling. Secondly, regular cleaning is key. Ensure you have a deep clean of your living room before Ramadan begins and then stick to daily or twice-daily light cleaning. You may need to increase this frequency during iftars when windows are opened. Use microfiber cloths as they can trap dust effectively without leaving lint behind. Thirdly, consider investing in window blinds that can be tightly closed during the day to reduce the amount of dust entering your home. This also helps maintain a consistent indoor temperature which is beneficial for reducing dust settling. Lastly, if you find this issue persists despite these measures, it might be worth having an inspection by a professional service provider like Saniservice who are well-versed in dealing with indoor environmental quality issues in the UAE.
