Should I clean ducts or hire professionals?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storm we had last month, I noticed a lot of debris on the floor near the air vents in my living room. My son has also started to have persistent coughing fits lately that worry me. Can anyone here share their experience with duct cleaning or do you think it’s something best handled by professionals?

Absolutely, the concern about your son's coughing fits and noticing debris from the recent dust storm is valid. In dubai, we've seen a lot of cases where air ducts can harbor allergens and other particles that might be contributing to respiratory issues.
Firstly, it’s important to understand the regulations in place. The uae requires certain standards for indoor environmental quality particularly in commercial buildings, but residential areas are less stringent though still recommendable. Cleaning your own ductwork is a doable task, yet it can be complex due to potential structural issues or safety concerns within the ducts themselves. Given that you've seen debris and considering your son's condition, professional inspection might be the best course of action. Professionals have the tools and expertise to thoroughly inspect the duct system for any contamination or blockages. I'd recommend reaching out to a company like ours, Saniservice, who can conduct a comprehensive inspection and provide advice on the necessary cleaning procedures. Our team is well-versed in UAE standards and can ensure that your home's air quality meets safety guidelines. Moreover, regular maintenance of your HVAC system, including duct cleaning, is crucial especially after events such as dust storms. We offer services tailored to local conditions ensuring the best results for your family’s health. Remember, prevention is key, so it would be wise to schedule a routine inspection and cleaning at least once every two years or more frequently if you live in an area prone to high particulate matter like desert areas. If you decide to go ahead with professional help, do ensure that the company follows strict safety protocols and uses EPA approved products. This will guarantee that your system is cleaned effectively without causing any additional health risks.
