Is duct issues causing stuffy air?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last week, I noticed a strange haze settling on our curtains and furniture in the living room. The AC in my apartment seems to be working overtime, but the air still feels stuffy and doesn’t seem as cool as it should. Could this be due to duct issues? What steps should I take to ensure proper cleaning before it gets worse?

Yes, duct issues could very well be the cause of your stuffy air. The recent dust storms can indeed settle debris and dirt within your ventilation system which could be affecting how efficiently your air conditioning unit operates.

In Dubai and UAE, we have quite a dusty climate, especially with such storms hitting hard as they did last week. Dust and other particulates can accumulate in the ductwork over time, leading to reduced airflow and potentially causing your AC to work overtime to cool down your space effectively. This accumulation also reduces the overall air quality within your apartment.

To address this issue, you should consider having a professional inspection done by a company like ours, Saniservice, who specialize in indoor environmental quality assessments. We can identify if there’s any buildup of dust or other contaminants that might be causing your discomfort and inefficient cooling. Our team will use advanced tools to thoroughly inspect the ductwork and recommend the necessary cleaning procedures.

If it's determined that the ducts need attention, we offer a full range of services including vacuuming out the debris, sanitizing the system to kill any bacteria or mold, and ensuring all connections are tightly sealed to prevent future issues. It’s important to address this promptly as leaving such buildup unattended can lead to further complications like reduced energy efficiency and even health risks.

If you decide to go through with a professional cleaning, do reach out to us at 800-MOLDS or via email hello@saniservice.com. We'd be more than happy to help ensure your indoor environment is as clean and healthy as possible during these dusty times.

Remember, regular maintenance of your HVAC system can prevent such issues from arising in the future. Always opt for certified professionals like us when it comes to duct cleaning to guarantee a thorough job that will benefit both your comfort and health.
