Absolutely, it's wise to consider professional duct cleaning even though the neighbors have recently had their ducts cleaned. In dubai, our regulations emphasize maintaining good indoor air quality which is crucial for everyone’s health, especially those sensitive to allergens and pollutants.

If you're experiencing any unusual smells, dust or other issues in your apartment, it might be a good idea to get an inspection done. The UAE doesn't have specific laws mandating duct cleaning but regular checks ensure that the air you breathe is safe and clean.

Professional inspections are recommended for several reasons. Firstly, they can identify potential issues like mold growth, which could be spreading through the ventilation system. Secondly, they help in ensuring that your ductwork is functioning efficiently, reducing energy costs as well as improving overall comfort levels within the apartment.

To avoid any misunderstandings or misinformation, i recommend contacting an expert service provider such as Saniservice. You can call 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a consultation and inspection. They will assess your ducts thoroughly and provide you with a tailored cleaning schedule based on their findings.

While waiting for the professional help, here are some precautions you could take:

1. Increase air circulation by opening windows if possible, but ensure it’s not too windy outside to avoid drawing in external pollutants.
2. Use HEPA filters in your HVAC system or portable air purifiers if available.
3. Clean and vacuum regularly to reduce dust accumulation which can travel through the ducts.

Remember, prevention is key when it comes to indoor air quality, so keeping an eye on these aspects will help maintain a healthier living environment for you and your family.
