Is duct cleaning linked to kids' coughs?« Back to Previous Page

After the intense dust storms we had last week, I noticed a strange haze lingering around my bedroom. My kids have been complaining of persistent coughs and runny noses ever since. Could this be due to poor duct cleaning? Should I call a professional to check our HVAC system?

Is duct cleaning linked to kids' coughs? That's a great concern and i'm glad you're looking into it. Yes, poor ductwork can indeed affect indoor air quality (iaq) which may lead to respiratory issues like coughing or runny noses in your kids.
In dubai/uae, we often see dust storms leading to increased particulate matter floating around, and if that gets into your hvac system, it could get distributed throughout your home. The ducts act as a central air highway, carrying air through your whole house. If they're not cleaned properly or regularly, you may find yourself dealing with lingering haze and discomfort. First, consider calling in the professionals from saniservice for an inspection. They can assess whether there's any build-up of dust, mold, or other allergens in your ducts that might be contributing to these issues. In dubai, regulations require all hvac systems to function efficiently and provide clean air, but maintaining them is key. Remember, regular maintenance isn't just about cleaning the ductwork; it also involves checking filters, vents, and overall system efficiency. Dirty or clogged filters can restrict airflow and increase energy bills, while poorly maintained systems can release dust and other particles into your living spaces. For now, make sure to keep windows closed during dusty spells and run a portable air purifier in the bedroom if you have one. This could help alleviate some of the symptoms until a professional inspection is done. If you decide to go ahead with an inspection, don't hesitate to contact saniservice at 800-moLds or send them an email via hello@saniservice.com. They offer expert services tailored for our local conditions and can ensure your family breathes easier in the long run. |
