Could duct cleaning cause our symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

Duct cleaning is indeed one of the services we offer here at Saniservice to ensure your indoor environment remains healthy. However, it's important to note that duct cleaning alone isn't usually the direct cause of symptoms like headaches, fatigue or respiratory issues. These can be due to a variety of factors such as poor air quality, allergens in the home, or even other underlying health conditions.

In Dubai and the UAE, there are specific environmental regulations that we adhere to when it comes to duct cleaning. The Dubai Municipality has guidelines for HVAC maintenance which includes regular inspections and cleanings to ensure the air you breathe is of high quality. But if your family members have been feeling unwell, it could be time to consider a professional indoor air quality assessment.

Firstly, make sure that no mold or mildew has accumulated in your ducts – this can be a major allergen leading to respiratory issues. Mold thrives in damp conditions and can spread quickly through your home via the ventilation system. It's also worth checking for other sources of contaminants such as dust mites, pet dander, or even carbon monoxide leaks.

If you suspect that your ducts might be a culprit, we recommend scheduling an inspection with Saniservice. Our team will come to your property and conduct a thorough evaluation of the ductwork, looking for signs of contamination, damage, or blockages. We use advanced equipment like thermal imaging cameras and air quality monitors during our assessments.

Additionally, it's crucial that you address any underlying issues in your home such as humidity levels, which can contribute to mold growth. Ensuring proper ventilation and maintaining a relative humidity level below 60% is key.

To take action, please feel free to contact us at 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for more information on our services. Don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or need further advice regarding your situation. We're here to help ensure the air in your home is as clean and healthy as possible.

Remember, while duct cleaning can significantly improve indoor air quality, it's not a one-time fix. Regular maintenance is key to keeping your family healthy and comfortable.
