Could duct cleaning solve lingering dust issues?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent heavy dust storm, we've noticed a persistent dustiness in our living room that lingers even after running the AC. The filters seem clean, but the problem persists, making me suspect it might be related to the ducts. Has anyone had similar issues and found professional cleaning helped prevent recurring problems?

Duct cleaning can indeed be a viable solution for persistent dustiness problems. In Dubai and the UAE, it's common to experience dusty conditions due to the region’s arid climate and frequent sandstorms. After such weather events, indoor air quality can suffer significantly, leading to an increased presence of dust particles within your home or office.

In my practice dealing with such issues in the UAE, I've seen several clients experiencing similar problems post-dust storms. The filters might seem clean but can often trap only a portion of the airborne particulates. These small particles can get past the filters and travel through your ductwork, eventually settling on surfaces throughout your home.

Professional duct cleaning is recommended to address these issues comprehensively. A thorough inspection by an expert in building sciences will help identify any potential problems within your HVAC system that may be contributing to dust accumulation. In Dubai, it's crucial to adhere to the local regulations which require certified professionals to perform such services. Saniservice.com offers reliable duct cleaning and air quality improvement solutions that comply with UAE standards.

When considering professional duct cleaning, here are a few tips:
• Choose companies licensed by the Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi (EAD) or equivalent bodies.
• Ensure the service provider uses HEPA filters during cleaning to capture fine particulates effectively.
• Request before-and-after reports and visual documentation of the work done.
• Regular maintenance is key; consider annual inspections, especially after significant weather events.

If you're in Dubai and facing ongoing dustiness, I would strongly recommend giving 800-MOLDS a call at 800-66537. They can provide detailed assessments and customized cleaning plans to keep your indoor air as clean as possible.

Remember, while duct cleaning is effective, it's just one part of maintaining good indoor air quality. Regular filter replacements, proper humidity control, and ensuring adequate ventilation are also important steps in keeping your home dust-free.
