Are window condensation and AC issues linked to ducts?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the rain last month, I noticed water droplets forming on the inside of our bedroom window. The AC unit in this room also seems to be making a strange noise and doesn't seem as cool as usual. Could these issues be related to duct cleaning or should we have our air ducts checked?

Hi there! Thank you for reaching out. It's quite possible that the window condensation and your AC unit issues could be linked to problems within your duct system. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, air conditioning is a big part of daily life due to the climate, so it’s crucial to ensure everything is running smoothly.
Window condensation can occur when there's an imbalance in humidity inside your home. This might not directly point to issues with your ducts but could be related to moisture levels or possibly poor ventilation. However, if you notice this along with AC unit noise and reduced cooling efficiency, then it’s definitely worth looking into the condition of your air duct system. Air ducts can accumulate dust, dirt, mold, and other allergens over time which might not only affect the airflow but also lead to a decrease in the effectiveness of your air conditioner. Moisture issues could be exacerbated by poor sealing or damage within the ductwork leading to water infiltration during heavy rains like those we've experienced recently. For professional advice and inspection, I'd highly recommend getting in touch with us at Saniservice. We offer comprehensive duct cleaning services that can help restore the efficiency of your HVAC system. Our team is familiar with UAE regulations and can ensure that any work done adheres to local standards. In the meantime, here are a few steps you could take: 1. Ensure proper sealing around windows and doors to reduce unwanted moisture entry. 2. Check if there's visible damage or leaks in your ductwork; these can be signs of potential issues. 3. Regularly clean your air filters as clogged ones can affect airflow and efficiency. Remember, maintaining good indoor environmental quality is key, especially with the hot climate we experience here in Dubai. If you notice any significant changes or if conditions worsen, it’s best to call us at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) for a thorough inspection and necessary remediation. Stay cool! |
