Is dust and dry cough linked to Ramadan cleaning?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the recent heat wave, I’ve noticed a persistent dust layer on all the surfaces in our living room, especially on the bookshelves near the window. The air feels stuffy despite having the AC running, and my family has complained about dry coughs that seem to worsen with each passing day. Could this be related to cleaning or maintenance issues we might have missed during Ramadan? What steps should I take now to improve the air quality and prevent these issues from recurring?

Absolutely! Dust and dry cough can be linked to cleaning practices during Ramadan. The heatwave followed by the cooler nights might have influenced how dust settles around your space. In Dubai/UAE, the regulations on indoor air quality are not as stringent as some other regions but maintaining a clean environment is crucial for everyone's health.
Firstly, it’s important to assess whether you've missed any maintenance tasks during Ramadan. With so much focus on preparing and enjoying iftar, it can be easy to overlook regular cleaning procedures. It would be wise to have a thorough inspection done by professionals like us at Saniservice. Our team can help identify any hidden issues and provide solutions. To start tackling the problem right away: 1. Deep Clean - Use a damp cloth or microfiber dusters to remove dust from surfaces, particularly those near windows where humidity might be higher. 2. Ventilation - Even though it’s hot outside, try to open windows for short periods when temperatures are slightly cooler to allow fresh air in and help with the stuffy feeling. 3. Air Purifiers - Consider getting an air purifier if you haven’t already. It can significantly reduce airborne particles that might be causing your family's coughs. 4. Humidifier - A humidifier can add moisture back into the air, which may soothe respiratory passages and alleviate dry cough symptoms. If issues persist or worsen, definitely schedule a professional inspection. We offer comprehensive services including mold testing, dust analysis, and remediation if needed. Remember, your family’s health is our top priority. Call 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email hello@saniservice.com to book an appointment today.
