Is duct cleaning urgent after dust storm?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a lot of debris in the vents of my second-floor bedroom. The AC is running more than usual, and there seems to be an odd odor coming from it. How urgent is this issue, and should I schedule duct cleaning right away?

Absolutely, the situation you're describing sounds pretty urgent and it's wise to get things checked out. In Dubai/UAE, after a heavy dust storm like the one we had recently, it’s quite common for ducts to accumulate debris which can affect your air quality and AC performance. The dust, sand particles, and other particulates that entered through your vents might not only be affecting the efficiency of your AC system but also causing unpleasant odors.
In such cases, a professional inspection is highly recommended. It's crucial to determine if the odor and increased energy consumption are due to an issue within the ductwork or elsewhere in your HVAC system. Ignoring these signs could lead to further complications like mold growth, which can be particularly problematic in our climate. Given the UAE's regulations, it’s important that you adhere to local standards for indoor air quality. The Dubai Municipality has strict guidelines on maintaining healthy living environments. Therefore, ensuring regular maintenance and cleaning of your HVAC system is not only good practice but also complies with these regulations. Considering your situation, I’d suggest reaching out to a professional service provider like Saniservice for an inspection and duct cleaning. They can assess the condition of your ducts, clean them thoroughly, and help prevent future issues by ensuring that your AC operates at its best efficiency.
