Should I clean my ducts professionally?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy dust storms we had last month, I noticed a lot of dust accumulating on the furniture in my living room. The AC vents seem to be more clogged than usual too. Given that we’ve lived here for two years and just noticed this, should I consider getting my ducts cleaned professionally to prevent further issues?

Absolutely, considering the heavy dust storms you've experienced recently and the increase in dust accumulation both inside your home and in the air conditioning vents, it seems like a good idea to look into duct cleaning. In Dubai, the environmental conditions can be quite harsh - with sandstorms and high humidity levels, it's not uncommon for dust and other particles to find their way through even the tightest of spaces.

UAE regulations require regular maintenance of HVAC systems to ensure optimal performance and indoor air quality (IAQ). The Abu Dhabi Environment Agency and Dubai Municipality both mandate that building owners should have their AC units serviced at least once a year, which includes inspecting ductwork for cleanliness. However, if you've noticed an increase in dust or if your system isn't performing as it should, it might be worth having a professional come out to check the entire system.

Duct cleaning can significantly improve air quality and boost the efficiency of your HVAC system. Dust, mold spores, pet dander, and other particulates can accumulate over time in ducts, leading to reduced airflow, potential health issues for occupants, and increased energy costs as the system works harder to maintain temperatures.

If you do decide to proceed with a cleaning, make sure to choose a reputable company that follows best practices. They should use HEPA filters during the process to capture even the tiniest particles and have technicians who are trained in proper duct cleaning techniques. In Dubai, companies like Saniservice are known for providing thorough and professional services.

Remember, while doing some DIY cleaning might seem like an option, it's often not as effective as a full professional job. Plus, professionals can identify any hidden issues that you might miss, ensuring your system is in top shape.
