Should I clean the ducts due to dust concerns?« Back to Previous Page

After the recent dust storm, we’ve noticed a lingering dirtiness in the air that seems particularly bad in the living room where my children spend most of their time. It's almost like there’s an increase in dust particles floating around, even after regular cleaning. Given our concerns about their health, should I consider having the ducts cleaned?

Absolutely, given the dust storm and the issues you're experiencing in your living room, it might be wise to consider having your ducts cleaned. Dust storms can indeed deposit a substantial amount of particulate matter into your HVAC system, which then gets distributed throughout your home every time the air conditioner or heater is used.
In Dubai and other parts of UAE, there are no strict regulations mandating regular duct cleaning, but it's strongly recommended especially in areas prone to dust storms like yours. Ducts can accumulate not just dust from the outside, but also allergens, mold spores, and even pet dander which can be detrimental for your family’s health. If you do decide to go ahead with a professional clean, make sure you choose a company that adheres to best practices. Look for services that offer HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) vacuuming during the cleaning process, which is especially effective at capturing tiny particles like dust mites and mold spores. It’s also wise to have a professional inspect your ductwork first. This can help identify any issues such as leaks or obstructions that could be contributing to poor indoor air quality. An inspection might reveal that other areas of your home need attention too, which a good contractor will point out during their evaluation.
