How can we eliminate persistent dust in our office?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent renovation of our office space, we installed a new air purifier, but ever since, there’s still this lingering dust that seems to settle everywhere despite regular cleaning. My colleagues are starting to complain about itchy eyes and sneezing fits. We’ve vacuumed and wiped surfaces multiple times, but nothing seems to help much. How can I ensure our office is truly clean and prevent these issues from recurring?

Eliminating persistent dust in your office space can be challenging but definitely achievable. First off, it's important to ensure that you are complying with UAE regulations and guidelines for indoor environmental quality. The Dubai Health Authority (DHA) and the General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA) both have set standards on air quality which indirectly relate to dust control.
Starting from the basics, regular deep cleaning is a must. But, it sounds like your current routine isn't cutting through that stubborn dust. Perhaps consider switching up your cleaning products or methods. For instance, using microfiber cloths instead of traditional ones can help trap particles more effectively. Also, ensure you're using HEPA filters in your vacuum cleaners; these are designed to capture fine particles and allergens. A professional inspection might be needed here if the issue persists. Many companies in Dubai like Saniservice offer such services where they use specialized equipment to measure air quality and dust levels. They can also provide recommendations on how to improve cleanliness and identify any underlying issues, like air leaks or improper ventilation that could be contributing to the problem. Another aspect is your choice of cleaning schedule. In Dubai, it might make sense to clean during off-peak hours when fewer staff are around. This ensures you're not just moving dust from one area to another. Consider breaking down tasks - for example, one day a week dedicated to deep cleaning desks and surfaces while daily light cleaning takes care of rest of the areas. Ventilation is also crucial in maintaining good indoor air quality. Given Dubai's climate, it’s common to use air conditioning which can sometimes exacerbate dust issues if not managed correctly. Make sure your HVAC system is well-maintained and that filters are changed regularly according to manufacturer guidelines. This helps prevent dust from circulating throughout the space. Lastly, promoting a culture of cleanliness among staff could be beneficial. Encourage everyone to keep their workstations tidy and remind them about proper cleaning techniques. Providing training or workshops on this topic might also enhance overall hygiene standards in your office. If after all these steps you're still facing issues, don't hesitate to reach out for professional assistance.
