Should I clean ducts or hire expert?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the recent construction work next door, I’ve noticed a persistent dust cloud when the windows are closed. The bedroom where my daughter sleeps seems particularly affected. Given that we’re moving into this apartment only two years ago, should I consider hiring an air quality expert to assess and clean the ducts or is it something I can handle myself?

Absolutely, it sounds like the recent construction work has definitely stirred up some dust issues. In dubai, we've seen quite a few cases of similar situations due to nearby building activities. Given your concern about the bedroom where your daughter sleeps being particularly affected, i'd strongly recommend reaching out for professional inspection and remediation services.
Firstly, the UAE does have specific regulations regarding indoor air quality that are outlined in the Federal Law No. 13 of 2006 on Building Control and Regulation. These laws ensure that buildings meet certain standards when it comes to air quality, but they don't necessarily cover every minute detail especially after construction work. Given the situation, i'd suggest calling 800-MOLDS or emailing hello@saniservice.com for a professional assessment. They can inspect your ducts and provide recommendations based on their expertise. It's not something you want to tackle alone, particularly since you're dealing with a bedroom where your daughter sleeps. Professional services will ensure that any issues are addressed correctly and efficiently. If the inspection confirms that there is indeed an issue with dust or other particles in the air, they can recommend appropriate cleaning of the ducts. This might involve vacuuming or using specialized equipment to clean the ductwork thoroughly. Regular maintenance by a professional ensures that your home's air quality remains at its best, which is especially important for young children. On a practical note, it’s also wise to keep windows closed when dust storms are expected and consider using HEPA filters in your HVAC system if possible. These filters can capture finer particles and help reduce airborne contaminants. In conclusion, while DIY duct cleaning might seem like an option, professional services will provide peace of mind and ensure that the job is done right. Don't hesitate to act quickly as addressing such issues promptly can prevent long-term health effects on your family. |
