Is dust accumulation unusual this season?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the rain last month, I noticed a thick layer of dust on all my furniture despite it being cleaned just two weeks ago. The AC in my apartment seems to be struggling more than usual too, even though we haven't had any sandstorms yet this year. Is dust storm season really approaching faster than expected, or is there something else going on?

Dust accumulation can indeed be unusual during certain seasons and conditions. In the UAE, especially in Dubai, we typically experience increased dust due to various factors including weather patterns, seasonal changes, and local geography.
The thick layer of dust you noticed on your furniture could be attributed to several reasons. One possibility is that despite the recent rain, it might not have been enough to significantly reduce airborne particulate matter. Rain can help in clearing the air, but its effectiveness depends on factors like duration and intensity. Sometimes, even after a light rainfall, dust particles left behind by wind or nearby construction activities can settle and accumulate quickly. Another factor could be the operation of your AC system. In Dubai, AC units are crucial for comfort throughout the year. They not only cool down the air but also act as a filter to remove particulates from the environment. If you've noticed increased difficulty with your AC, it might indicate that more dust is being drawn into your unit than usual. Regular maintenance and cleaning of filters can help in reducing such issues. It's worth considering if there has been any unusual increase in construction activities or roadwork around your area recently. These activities often contribute to an increase in airborne particles, which can exacerbate the dust levels indoors even after a rainy spell. Given the situation you've described, it might be wise to conduct a professional inspection of both your indoor environment and AC system. This will help identify if there are any underlying issues that need addressing.
