Is cleaning ducts urgent due to dust storm?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a significant amount of dust collecting on all the surfaces in the bedroom. It’s concerning because it seems to have come from outside, and now my partner is complaining of a cough. How urgent do you think it is to clean the ducts in our apartment?

Cleaning ducts is indeed a serious matter especially after such a dusty storm. The dust and particles that you've noticed could be from outside, but it's also possible they came from your ventilation system if the filters weren't doing their job properly. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, we experience varying levels of air pollution throughout the year. Dust storms are not uncommon, and post-storm, it is crucial to ensure that your indoor environment remains clean and healthy.
Given the situation, it’s definitely worth considering a professional duct cleaning as soon as possible. The dust you noticed could be more than just cosmetic; it might contain pollutants harmful to health, especially for those who have respiratory issues or allergies. In Dubai, we see an increase in such cases during periods of high air pollution. It's also important to note that the UAE has specific regulations regarding indoor environmental quality and building maintenance. Ensuring your ducts are clean can help comply with these standards, which is not only good for your health but may be required by law or building management as well. Considering your partner’s cough, it would be wise to have a professional inspection of both the ductwork and air filters.
