Are strange noises and dust my concern?« Back to Previous Page

Strange noises and dust can indeed be concerning and might indicate underlying issues that could impact your living environment. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, it's crucial to ensure that your apartment is in a safe and healthy condition.

Firstly, regarding the AC making strange noises, this may not necessarily fall under the landlord’s maintenance duties if it's considered part of regular wear-and-tear. However, as per the Real Estate Agency Law 2018 (Federal Decree-Law No. 37 of 2018), landlords are required to maintain common areas and ensure that all systems within a property function properly. Therefore, if you're experiencing unusual noises from your AC unit, it would be advisable to contact your landlord or building management first. They should address any issues related to the HVAC system.

Now coming to the layer of dust on furniture in living rooms, this could indicate poor indoor air quality or insufficient cleaning and maintenance practices. The UAE has strict regulations regarding indoor environmental quality (IEQ) to ensure a healthy living environment for residents. According to the Dubai Municipality's Building Control Department, it is generally the responsibility of tenants to keep their personal spaces clean. However, shared areas like hallways should be maintained by the landlord or management company.

If these issues persist and you feel uncomfortable addressing them directly with your landlord, consider requesting a professional inspection from a reputable environmental service provider in Dubai such as Saniservice. They can assess the situation objectively and recommend any necessary actions to improve indoor air quality and ensure that the building’s systems are functioning optimally.

Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is essential for preventing health issues like allergies or asthma. A regular cleaning schedule and ensuring proper maintenance of your apartment's HVAC system can significantly contribute to a healthier living environment.
