Should I clean air ducts to avoid health issues?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storm last month, I noticed a thick layer of debris accumulating in our central air ducts. The smell inside the house has significantly worsened since then, and my kids have been experiencing more coughing than usual. Given these observations, should I consider professional duct cleaning now to prevent future health issues and unpleasant odors?

Absolutely, cleaning your air ducts is a crucial step to ensure indoor environmental quality and can significantly reduce health issues, especially after experiencing a dust storm like the one we had last month. The accumulation of debris in your air ducts could be causing unpleasant odours and might be harbouring allergens and pollutants that are affecting you and your family's health.
In the UAE, specifically Dubai, regulations related to indoor air quality aren't as stringent as in some other countries, but it’s still important to maintain a clean environment within your home. The dust storm you mentioned could have introduced a significant amount of particulate matter into your ductwork, which can lead to respiratory issues and poor air quality. Given the circumstances, I strongly recommend professional inspection and cleaning. Our company, Saniservice, has been serving the UAE for years, ensuring that our clients' indoor environments are clean and healthy. A thorough duct cleaning not only removes visible debris but also clears out hidden contaminants that can’t be reached by regular vacuuming or cleaning. Moreover, it’s worth considering a professional inspection to assess the current state of your ducts. Sometimes, issues aren't immediately obvious and can be complex to identify without proper expertise. An inspection will help us determine if there are any deeper underlying problems that need addressing.
