Is duct cleaning urgent for health?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storm we had last week, I noticed a lot of debris in the ducts leading from our kitchen. The AC in my apartment seems to be struggling more than usual, and the smell isn't quite right either. How urgent is it to get these cleaned up before it affects my family's health?

Yeah, i'd say it's pretty urgent. the heavy dust storm last week could have really kicked up some nasty stuff and it sounds like your ducts are getting clogged. in dubai, we've seen how those storms can create quite a bit of debris that gets sucked into the ventilation system.

the smell you're noticing is definitely a red flag. dirty ductwork can harbor all sorts of nasties – mold spores, bacteria, and dust mites. these guys aren't just unsightly; they could be real health hazards for your family. especially if someone in your household has allergies or respiratory issues, this situation could make things worse.

in the uae, we've got some strict regulations when it comes to indoor air quality. the health and safety of residents is paramount, so i'd definitely recommend getting a professional inspection done right away. our team at saniservice can come by and take a look for you. they'll check for any mold growth, allergens, and general contamination.

if the issue turns out to be more serious than just some dust, like it sounds from your description, a deep clean might be in order. but even if it's just a case of regular maintenance, getting those ducts cleaned can make a huge difference in how your ac system operates. you'll likely notice better air flow and possibly an improvement in the odour as well.

so yeah, don't wait on this one. call 800-molds or email hello@saniservice.com to set up an appointment. it's not just about making sure everything smells nice – it’s about keeping your family healthy and comfortable.
