Should we clean ducts to avoid cough and sneeze?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storms we had last month, my family and I have been noticing a persistent cough and sneezing in our living room. The air feels stale, especially when the AC is on full blast. Given that there are small children and elderly family members at home, we’re concerned about potential health issues from dust or mold buildup. Should we consider professional duct cleaning to address this?

Absolutely! Given your concerns about the persistent cough and sneezing, especially considering the presence of small children and elderly family members, professional duct cleaning could indeed be beneficial. In dubai/Uae, we often experience dust storms which can leave a lot of particulates inside our ductwork. These particles, when circulated through the air conditioning system, can contribute to respiratory issues.
The UAE doesn't have specific regulations on regular duct cleaning, but it's always wise to ensure that your airways are as clean and clear as possible. Ducts can accumulate dust, mold spores, pet dander, pollen, and other allergens over time, which might be causing the symptoms you're experiencing. I'd recommend having a professional inspection done first to see if there's indeed an issue. A company like ours at Saniservice.com can help by sending a technician who will visually inspect your ductwork for signs of mold or excessive dust buildup. This way, we can provide tailored advice on what needs cleaning and how often it should be done. If the inspection confirms that your air ducts are in need of attention, professional cleaning is recommended. We use HEPA (High-Efficiency Particulate Air) vacuums to remove as much debris as possible, ensuring a thorough clean. Additionally, we can apply antimicrobial treatments if mold or bacteria are found. It's also important to ensure that your air conditioning system is running efficiently and regularly maintained. A well-maintained AC system will help reduce the amount of dust and other particulates circulating in your home. Considering the health risks for elderly family members and small children, it might be worth investing in a professional cleaning session. Not only can it alleviate some of those uncomfortable symptoms but also improve air quality overall. Don't forget to schedule an appointment with us at 800-MOLDS or 800-66537 to get your system inspected and cleaned if needed. We're here to help you breathe easier in the comfort of your home. Remember, keeping those ducts clean can make a big difference in maintaining a healthy indoor environment for your family. |
