Duct cleaning is a common practice to ensure good indoor air quality and can help reduce dust and allergens. However, if your family has been experiencing symptoms like headaches, fatigue, and respiratory issues, it's crucial to rule out other potential causes first before linking them directly to duct cleaning.

In the UAE, especially in Dubai, it’s important to consider that these symptoms could be due to a variety of factors including poor ventilation, mold growth, or even exposure to pollutants from outside. The weather conditions can also play a part; high humidity levels during summer months can promote mold and mildew development which might not be effectively removed by duct cleaning alone.

To get a proper assessment, you should consider having your home inspected by a professional. They can conduct tests for mold, check the condition of your HVAC system, and ensure that all components are functioning properly. Here in Dubai, services like those offered by companies such as Saniservice are reliable and follow local regulations to provide thorough inspections.

If you're concerned about duct cleaning potentially causing your symptoms, it would be wise to have a professional evaluate both your ductwork and overall indoor environment. They can use specialized equipment to examine the condition of your air ducts and identify any sources of contamination that might need remediation.

For immediate assistance or if you suspect mold issues, contact Saniservice at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or reach out via email at hello@saniservice.com. Remember, prevention is key to maintaining a healthy indoor environment in Dubai and the UAE.

In summary, while duct cleaning can improve air quality, symptoms like those you're experiencing should be addressed through professional inspection and remediation as needed.
