After the heavy dust storms we had last month, I noticed a persistent cough and runny nose in my bedroom, especially when the air conditioning is on. It’s unsettling to think that this might be due to dirty ducts. Have anyone experienced similar issues or should I call a professional for an inspection?

Could dirty ducts cause my symptoms?
Absolutely. In the UAE, especially during dusty weather like we experienced last month, it's very plausible that your persistent cough and runny nose could be linked to the condition of your air conditioning system and specifically, the state of your ductwork. The recent dust storms here in Dubai can carry a lot of particulates which might get trapped within the HVAC systems if not maintained properly. In Dubai, the summers are hot and long, meaning many homes rely on AC systems for extended periods. This constant use can lead to an accumulation of dirt, dust, mold spores, and other allergens that circulate through your home when you switch on the air conditioning. These particles can irritate the respiratory system leading to coughing and runny noses. Many residents in the UAE experience similar issues during such weather conditions. If you're noticing these symptoms, it's advisable to have a professional inspection done. Here at our company, we recommend getting your ducts checked as soon as possible by calling 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com for an appointment. Typically, professionals will use specialized equipment like a duct blaster and a visual inspection camera to determine the extent of any issues. They can then clean out the ductwork, ensuring that your home's air is cleaner and healthier to breathe. Regular maintenance can also prevent future problems from developing. It's crucial for those in Dubai and the UAE to be proactive about indoor air quality, as it directly impacts our health and comfort during these long, scorching summers. Don’t hesitate to take action if you suspect your ducts are dirty or if you're experiencing respiratory issues – your health is paramount!
