Should I clean air vents or hire professionals?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storms we had last week, I noticed a lot of dirt and debris in my air vents. The AC unit in our master bedroom seems to be running less efficiently than before too. Should I consider hiring professionals for duct cleaning or is it something I can do myself?

Absolutely, cleaning air vents is a good start to improve indoor environmental quality. In the UAE especially during dust storms, it's common for dirt and debris to accumulate within your HVAC system. This can indeed affect the efficiency of your AC unit, making it work harder and potentially leading to higher energy bills.
In Dubai and across the UAE, regulations may not specifically mandate duct cleaning but ensuring that your air conditioning systems are well-maintained is highly recommended by industry standards and health authorities. Over time, accumulated dust can reduce airflow, increase the likelihood of mold growth, and even contribute to poor indoor air quality. However, cleaning ducts yourself might be challenging due to their size and structure. If you decide to attempt it, ensure you wear appropriate protective gear like gloves and masks, and use a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter for best results. Make sure to clean the filters in your AC units as well, which are often overlooked but can significantly impact air quality.
