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

Absolutely, it's wise to consider hiring an air quality tester especially given the recent dampness issues you've been experiencing. The unusual moisture and lingering odour could be indicative of mold growth, a common problem after rainfall or flooding events. In Dubai, mold can thrive in humid conditions, particularly during the cooler months.

The UAE has certain guidelines regarding indoor air quality, with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) encouraging regular checks to maintain healthy living environments. The Abu Dhabi Municipality and Dubai Health Authority also have regulations that focus on ensuring safe levels of pollutants indoors.

Given your situation, it's crucial to get a professional inspection as soon as possible. A trained environmental inspector can pinpoint the source of the dampness and recommend remediation steps if necessary. They will use specialized equipment such as moisture meters, thermometers, and air quality sensors to assess the condition of your indoor environment accurately.

Typically, these services might start from around 500 AED for a basic inspection up to 2000 AED or more depending on the complexity and size of the area being tested. The cost can vary significantly based on whether it's just an initial assessment or if additional remediation work is required.
