Should I clean ducts or hire pros in Dubai?« Back to Previous Page

Absolutely, your observation of dust accumulation is quite common post-storms and it's wise to consider duct cleaning. In the UAE, specifically Dubai, our environmental conditions and high temperatures can lead to rapid build-up of dirt and allergens within the HVAC systems. The recent dust storm would have pushed a lot more particulate matter into the air handling units and ductwork.

Now, regarding your question whether you should clean the ducts yourself or hire professionals - well, it depends on how handy you are! If you've got some experience with DIY projects and tools like vacuums designed for such tasks, you can give a try. However, given the intricate nature of HVAC systems in Dubai, I'd recommend calling in the pros. Professional duct cleaning companies have the necessary expertise, equipment, and safety measures to ensure thorough cleaning without damaging your system.

In Dubai, costs for professional duct cleaning vary but typically range from AED 500 to AED 2000 per session based on the size of the property and extent of work needed. It’s worth noting that regulations in the UAE don’t specifically mandate regular duct cleaning but it is highly recommended especially if you have a family with allergies or asthma.

To keep your air quality at its best, consider professional inspection after such storms to ensure there's no contamination beyond dust. And remember, maintaining clean ducts can significantly reduce energy costs as well by improving system efficiency.
