Should I clean ducts due to vent water pooling?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the rain last month, I noticed a lot of water pooling at the bottom of my living room vent, which has me worried about mold. The air in the house also seems a bit stale lately, especially since we keep the windows closed during these cooler evenings. Should I consider hiring professionals to clean the ducts, or could this be something minor?

Absolutely, the situation you're experiencing sounds serious and warrants attention. Vent water pooling at your living room vent can indeed be an indication of a bigger issue that needs addressing. Mold growth is a potential concern here due to excess moisture which is very common after heavy rainfall in areas like Dubai.
In the UAE, especially during cooler evenings when windows are kept closed for insulation, maintaining proper ventilation within homes becomes crucial. Poor air circulation can lead to stagnation and accumulation of moisture, creating an environment ripe for mold growth. Mold not only affects indoor air quality but also poses health risks including respiratory issues which could be exacerbated by prolonged exposure. Given the specifics in your scenario, I highly recommend having a professional inspection done.
