Could dirty ducts cause my symptoms?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms last month, I noticed a persistent cough and irritated eyes whenever we spend time in the bedroom. The AC in our apartment has seemed to be working extra hard too. Could this be related to the ductwork? Have any of you experienced similar issues or know if cleaning the ducts could help?

Hey there,

Could dirty ducts cause your symptoms? Well, it's quite possible. Dust storms can really kick up lots of debris that might find its way into the HVAC system here in Dubai. The bedroom is a common spot for such issues since many people keep their windows closed to prevent sand and dust from entering.

I've heard folks experiencing similar complaints before - coughing and irritated eyes after spending time in certain rooms, especially when it seems like the AC works harder than usual. This could indeed be related to your ductwork being clogged with dust, dirt, and other particles that get stirred up during use.

In Dubai, we do have some specific regulations about indoor air quality, but keeping your ducts clean is one of those things you really should take into your own hands. A professional inspection can help identify any issues and suggest a cleaning schedule to maintain good IAQ in your home.

If you're concerned or want peace of mind, I'd recommend reaching out to a professional service like ours at Saniservice.
