Could dirty vents affect my son's cough?« Back to Previous Page

Certainly! The dusty vents could indeed be contributing to your son's cough. In the UAE, particularly after such intense dust storms as we've experienced recently, it's crucial to ensure that your indoor environment is clean and free from potential irritants like dust mites, pollen, or other allergens. Accumulated dirt in air ducts can act as a breeding ground for these particles, leading to poor air quality which may exacerbate respiratory issues.

Given the severity of your son’s symptoms and considering you've had no professional cleaning done in two years, it would be wise to have an expert assessment. The UAE has specific environmental regulations that require periodic maintenance of HVAC systems to ensure optimal indoor air quality. Professionals can not only clean but also inspect for any hidden issues like mold growth or pest infestation which could worsen your son's condition.

Duct cleaning isn't a straightforward DIY task, especially in complex Dubai apartment buildings where ducts are often concealed and intricate. It involves specialized equipment such as powerful vacuums, brushes, and sometimes even access to the attic space if needed. Professional cleaners like ours at Saniservice can handle these tasks effectively while ensuring your family's safety.

As for costs, you might expect to pay anywhere from AED 1000 to AED 3000 or more depending on the extent of the work required. This would include not just cleaning but also sealing any gaps and checking the overall health of your HVAC system.

So, if you're concerned about your son’s cough potentially being linked to dust in air ducts, it's best to schedule a professional inspection. We at Saniservice can offer a free consultation where we'll assess the situation thoroughly. Don't hesitate to contact us on 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for further assistance.

Remember, keeping your home environment clean and healthy is crucial, especially with young children who are more susceptible to respiratory issues. Regular maintenance can prevent such problems from arising in the first place.
