Could cleaning AC coils help our symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

Cleaning AC coils could indeed help alleviate your symptoms. In the UAE, especially in Dubai, dust storms can bring in significant amounts of particulate matter that can get trapped in your air conditioning system. This buildup can lead to a musty smell and might even contribute to respiratory issues like coughing.

In our region, it's not uncommon for AC systems to accumulate dirt, dust, mold spores, and other contaminants over time, especially if the filters haven't been regularly maintained. The coils in your central AC unit are particularly prone to collecting debris as air passes through them. When these coils aren't cleaned, they can become breeding grounds for microorganisms that might cause or worsen respiratory issues.

Given the history of dust storms and your daughter's symptoms, it would be wise to have a professional inspection and cleaning done on your AC system. The UAE has specific regulations around indoor air quality in buildings, ensuring that systems are maintained properly to avoid health risks. According to the UAE Standards and Regulations Control Bureau (URC), regular maintenance of HVAC systems is crucial for maintaining good indoor air quality.

Remember to keep windows and doors closed during dust storms and consider using HEPA filters as an interim measure while waiting for a professional cleaning. It's important to address these issues promptly to ensure a healthier indoor environment.
