Should I hire an air quality pro?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy smoke from a nearby construction site settled a few weeks ago, I’ve been noticing a persistent odor in my living room. My family has been complaining of headaches and stuffy noses since then, and I’m worried it might be due to poor indoor air quality. Given our location near multiple construction sites and the hot climate here, should I consider hiring an air quality professional to assess and improve the situation?

Absolutely, it's wise to consider hiring an air quality professional to assess the situation. In Dubai and the UAE, we have strict regulations around indoor air quality (IAQ) especially given our proximity to numerous construction sites that can contribute to poor IAQ due to particulate matter, dust, and other pollutants.

After those smoky days from the nearby construction, it's important to check if there are any lingering issues. The headaches and stuffy noses your family is experiencing could indeed be related to poor air quality. Dubai has its own set of guidelines for indoor environments, particularly in terms of ventilation and air filtration standards. As a resident here, you're aware that the hot climate can exacerbate these conditions as well.

Given the specific situation you've described, I would recommend reaching out to an expert. They will have the right tools and knowledge to properly assess your home's air quality. Here are some key points to consider:

1. Professional Assessment: Look for a company accredited by the relevant authorities in the UAE, such as the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE). An assessment can pinpoint exactly what pollutants might be affecting you.

2. Remediation Services: If there's an issue with the air quality, a professional can provide remedial measures like installing better filtration systems or improving ventilation.

3. Regular Monitoring: Once resolved, it’s a good idea to set up regular monitoring to ensure IAQ stays within acceptable levels, especially considering our climate and ongoing construction activities.
