Hey there! I'm glad to help clear up any concerns about the neighboring office cleaning in your apartment. First off, it's understandable to feel a bit anxious when you hear about cleaning activities next door, especially if they're in an area that might affect your space.

In Dubai and the UAE, there are specific guidelines for indoor environmental quality and cleaning practices that building managers should follow. However, these regulations typically apply more to public or commercial spaces rather than individual residential units. That being said, if you're worried about cross-contamination or air circulation issues, it’s always a good idea to take some proactive steps.

Firstly, ensure your apartment's ventilation system is functioning properly. Check that windows and vents are clean and unobstructed. This can help with maintaining good indoor air quality despite any cleaning activities next door.

Secondly, consider investing in an air purifier or HEPA filters if you haven't already. These can be particularly useful during times of increased cleaning activity to reduce the risk of airborne particles entering your space.

Lastly, while it's generally not necessary to panic, a professional inspection might give you peace of mind. Our company, Saniservice, offers comprehensive environmental inspections that can identify any potential issues and provide tailored recommendations for maintaining optimal indoor air quality in your home.
