After the heavy dust storm we had last month, I noticed a persistent cough and sneezing whenever I spend time in my bedroom. The AC vents are caked with visible dirt and dust, and it’s making me really worried about potential health effects for my family. Have you experienced similar issues after such storms, and what should I do to clean or inspect the ductwork?

Absolutely, cleaning AC ductwork after a dust storm is quite important. In the UAE and specifically in Dubai, we often experience such storms that can bring in significant amounts of dirt and debris into our homes. This isn't just an inconvenience but also poses potential health risks for you and your family.
Firstly, it's crucial to recognize the role that ductwork plays in maintaining indoor air quality. In a dust storm scenario like what you've described, the AC system acts as a filter, trapping all sorts of dirt, pollen, and other particulates inside the ducts. Over time, this accumulation can lead to poor air circulation, higher energy bills due to reduced efficiency, and most importantly, it might increase your risk of respiratory issues. Given that you're experiencing coughing and sneezing in particular rooms after the storm, it's quite likely these symptoms are related to the dust and allergens circulating through your home. The visible dirt on your AC vents is a clear sign that something needs attention. In such cases, it’s highly recommended to seek professional inspection and cleaning services.
