Is duct mold affecting my family's health?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the intense dust storms we had last spring, I noticed a persistent odor lingering in the living room. The air feels stuffy, even with the AC on high. My kids have been complaining of coughing fits lately, and I can’t help but think it might be related to the buildup of dust and mold in our ducts. Has anyone else experienced similar issues, or do you have any tips for getting a thorough duct cleaning without breaking the bank?

Duct mold can indeed affect your family's health, especially during the hot and humid summer months we experience in Dubai. Mold spores can easily spread through the HVAC system, causing respiratory issues like coughing fits, sneezing, or even more severe problems for those with allergies or asthma.
In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, dust storms can introduce a lot of particulate matter into your home's air ducts. This can lead to mold growth, especially if conditions are damp and warm enough. The persistent odor you're noticing could be due to this buildup, as well as drywall residue or other materials that have been disturbed during the storms. It’s important to address these concerns promptly. A professional inspection is recommended to assess the extent of any issues within your ductwork. Our company, Saniservice, can provide a thorough evaluation and recommend appropriate cleaning procedures. We adhere to local UAE standards for indoor air quality and are committed to ensuring that our solutions meet the specific needs of Dubai's climate. To clean without breaking the bank, consider these tips: 1. Look for companies certified by the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) who follow strict protocols. 2. Ask about the use of HEPA filters during cleaning to capture even smaller particles. 3. Ensure the service provider uses a negative air machine to contain dust and mold spores. Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial for your family's health.
