Should I clean ducts after living room renovation?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent renovation of our living room, I’ve noticed a persistent dust cloud when we turn on the air conditioner. It’s concerning because it seems like there might be more dust than usual settling in every corner. Given that we live in Dubai where the climate is so dry and dusty for most of the year, should I consider hiring professionals to clean our ducts? What can I expect in terms of costs and what are some signs that indicate whether duct cleaning is necessary?

Absolutely, it's wise to consider duct cleaning after your living room renovation. In dubai where dust and dry climate is a norm, the air ducts can accumulate a lot of debris that might have been stirred up during construction or renovation work. This includes dust, fibers from materials used in the new fixtures, and even small particles of paint.

The UAE doesn't have specific regulations mandating regular duct cleaning but it's highly recommended to ensure good indoor air quality especially after a major renovation. The persistent dust cloud you’re noticing is a clear sign that your air ducts need attention. When you turn on your AC, these hidden particles are being circulated through your home, which can be unhealthy if left unchecked.

Expect to pay between 300 and 1000 AED depending on the size of your property and the extent of work needed. Some companies offer packages that include cleaning and inspection services, so it's worth asking about any available deals or discounts.

When you're hiring a professional duct cleaner, ensure they are certified and use HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) filters to capture even the tiniest particles. You should also ask for before and after photos of the job. In dubai, we've seen companies like Saniservice who offer reliable services with transparent pricing.

Regular maintenance can help keep your air clean and improve overall health while reducing energy costs. The initial investment in duct cleaning will pay off as it prolongs the lifespan of your HVAC system by keeping it free from blockages.

If you're considering this, do give us a ring at 800-MOLDS or drop us an email at hello@saniservice.com for more information and to schedule an appointment. We can help guide you through the process and ensure everything is done to your satisfaction.

Remember, keeping your air ducts clean doesn't just benefit your family's health but also ensures that your AC operates efficiently. It's a small step towards a healthier home environment.
