How can I prevent dust from circulating during summer?« Back to Previous Page

After the summer heat wave this year, I noticed a lot of dust collecting on my curtains and blinds in the living room. The AC seems to be circulating some of that dust around the house, making my kids cough more than usual. How can I prevent this from happening again next summer?

Cleaning Summer in the UAE can be quite a challenge especially after the intense summer heat. To prevent dust from circulating around your living room and other parts of the house during next summer, here are some practical steps you can take.

Firstly, it is highly recommended to conduct a professional inspection for indoor air quality and dust levels in your home. Given the UAE's specific regulations on indoor environmental standards, this step can ensure that any potential health hazards from dust or mold are addressed promptly. If you need assistance with this, feel free to call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com for a professional service.

Dust collecting on curtains and blinds is common in Dubai due to the high temperatures and humidity levels during summer months. One effective way to tackle this issue is by regularly cleaning these surfaces. Use a damp cloth to wipe down curtains and blinds, which helps prevent dust from accumulating as much. For harder-to-reach areas or for more thorough cleaning, consider using a microfiber duster or vacuum cleaner with an HEPA filter.

In addition to regular cleaning, it's important to maintain your air conditioning system. The AC in Dubai often circulates not only cool air but also some of the dust that has accumulated over time. Have your AC units serviced at least once before each summer to ensure they are clean and functioning properly. This will help reduce the amount of dust being circulated throughout your home.

Using a HEPA filter in your air purifier or as part of your AC system can be beneficial too. These filters capture small particles like dust, pollen, and other allergens, which can irritate your children’s respiratory systems. Also, keeping windows tightly shut during high pollen seasons can help reduce the influx of outdoor pollutants.

Lastly, consider using an indoor plant such as a spider plant or snake plant, both known for their ability to filter out harmful particles in the air. Regularly misting plants with water also helps keep humidity levels down and reduces dust settling on surfaces.

By following these steps, you can significantly reduce dust circulation during summer and create a healthier living environment for your family. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need more information or assistance.
