Duct cleaning isn't directly linked to ceiling discoloration caused by humidity. However, excessive moisture can lead to mold growth which might result in discoloration and other issues. In the UAE, particularly Dubai, we've seen a rise in such concerns due to recent humidity spikes.

Humidity levels above 60% are generally considered high for indoor spaces, especially in our climate where temperatures soar during summer. If you're noticing discoloration on your bathroom ceiling, it could indeed be a sign of mold growth or water damage. Mold thrives in damp environments and can start to grow within 48 hours if moisture levels aren't controlled.

In Dubai, we follow specific guidelines set by the government for indoor environmental quality, which include managing humidity levels to prevent such issues. If you suspect your ceiling discoloration is due to mold or moisture, it's crucial to act promptly. Mold not only damages your property but can also affect your health if spores are inhaled.
