Is duct cleaning urgent for my daughter's health?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storms we had last week, I noticed a lot of dirt and dust accumulating in our living room vents. It’s really concerning because my daughter has been having more coughing fits than usual, and I’m worried it might be related to all this dust. How urgent is it for us to get the ducts cleaned?

Duct cleaning is indeed something that should be taken seriously especially after such harsh dust storms. In the UAE, particulate matter from storms can easily get trapped within your ductwork and then distributed through your home’s air system every time you turn on your AC or heating. This could definitely exacerbate respiratory issues like those experienced by your daughter.
In Dubai, the environmental conditions are quite challenging with dust storms being a common occurrence during certain times of the year. Such storms can bring in a significant amount of pollutants that get lodged within the HVAC systems and ductwork over time. These particles can include pollen, mold spores, pet dander, and other allergens which may be triggering her coughing fits. The urgency here depends on several factors including how severe the symptoms are, the overall air quality in your home, and any previous history of respiratory issues within the family. A professional inspection would be highly recommended to assess the current state of your ductwork and HVAC system. This can help determine if there is a significant buildup that needs immediate attention. Given the specifics for the UAE, it's also worth noting that the building codes and regulations might not always cover such detailed maintenance but keeping your home’s air quality in top condition should be considered essential by any homeowner. Regular cleaning of ducts every 3-5 years or after major storms can prevent these issues from escalating.
