Should I duct seal or hire professionals?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the recent storms last month, I noticed a persistent dampness seeping into the ceiling of my bedroom on the second floor. The AC in this area also seems to be working overtime, which is unusual for our climate. Should I consider hiring professionals to duct seal or can I do it myself?

Absolutely, i would recommend looking into duct sealing for your situation. it's common to find dampness and increased air conditioning usage after storms like the ones we've experienced recently here in dubai. these can be indicators of issues within your HVAC system that might require attention.
in the uae, especially in areas like dubai, regulations are stringent on ensuring indoor environmental quality. proper sealing of ducts not only prevents dampness and moisture from entering but also ensures energy efficiency by reducing air leaks. unsealed or poorly sealed ducts can lead to increased energy consumption as your ac works harder to maintain temperatures. however, i would advise against trying to duct seal yourself if you've noticed such significant issues. the process requires precision to be effective and safe. improper sealing could exacerbate problems like mold growth, which is particularly concerning in our humid climate. professional inspectors can assess the integrity of your ductwork, identify leaks or areas needing repair, and apply high-quality sealants that are suitable for uae standards. i strongly suggest contacting experts at 800-MOLDS or email hello@saniservice.com to book an inspection and sealing service. they will have the necessary tools and expertise to ensure a thorough job, which can significantly improve your indoor air quality and reduce energy costs. taking care of this now could save you from bigger issues in the future, so don’t delay! |
