Is regular cleaning enough for fine dust?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the recent sandstorm, I’ve noticed a persistent fine dust coating everything in my living room—my furniture, windowsills, even my books. It’s hard to believe how quickly it accumulated despite having cleaned just last week. The coughing in our household has been worse since then too. Do you think regular cleaning is enough, or should we consider professional help?

Regular cleaning alone might not be enough to keep your home free from fine dust, particularly post-sandstorm events. In Dubai and the UAE, we experience frequent sandstorms that can carry minute particles of desert dust into our homes. These tiny particles are not easily removed by standard cleaning methods.
Firstly, it’s crucial to recognize the potential health impacts of such dust. Exposure to high levels of particulate matter, especially during sandstorms, can irritate your respiratory system and exacerbate conditions like asthma or allergies. The recent coughing in your household could be linked to this increase in fine dust. Given that you noticed a significant accumulation despite cleaning just last week, it might be time to consider a deeper clean or even professional help. Regular cleaning with a vacuum cleaner equipped with a HEPA filter can certainly help but may not fully address the issue of fine desert dust particles. These filters are designed to capture very small particles and can reduce indoor pollution effectively. I would also recommend using microfiber cloths for wiping surfaces as they are more effective at trapping tiny particles compared to regular cloths or paper towels. Additionally, keeping windows closed during sandstorms can help prevent further entry of these fine dust particles into your home. For a more comprehensive approach, I’d suggest scheduling an inspection with professionals who specialize in indoor environmental quality. They can assess the extent of the problem and recommend appropriate measures including air filtration systems that might be necessary for your specific situation. Remember, maintaining good air quality is crucial for health, especially during times when sandstorms are frequent. If you’re considering professional help, don’t hesitate to contact us at 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com for a consultation and remediation services tailored to the UAE environment. In summary, while regular cleaning helps, it might not be sufficient in combating fine dust accumulation during sandstorms. A combination of enhanced cleaning practices, use of appropriate tools, and professional inspection can provide better protection against these issues. |
