Is duct cleaning necessary for dust odor?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a persistent dusty smell lingering in our living room. The windows are clean, but it seems like there might be dust particles stuck in the ducts from all the outdoor debris. How urgent is it to have this checked and cleaned?

Duct cleaning is indeed necessary for dust odor issues like the one you're experiencing. After such dusty storms, it's important to ensure that your home’s air ducts are free from accumulated debris and particulates. This step not only improves indoor air quality but also reduces the risk of mold growth which can be a significant health concern.
In Dubai/UAE, dust storms aren't uncommon. They can kick up all sorts of outdoor pollutants including fine dust, sand, and even pollen that might find their way into your home's ventilation system through small gaps or cracks in windows or doors. Once inside the ducts, these particles can circulate throughout your living space contributing to a dusty smell and potentially triggering allergies or respiratory issues. The UAE doesn't have specific regulations mandating regular duct cleaning, but it’s highly recommended especially after incidents like dust storms. The air quality can drop significantly during such events, making indoor environments prone to build-up of contaminants which need to be removed. For an accurate assessment of your situation, a professional inspection is key. At Saniservice, we offer comprehensive duct cleaning services that include thorough inspections and the removal of all visible debris from your HVAC system.
