Should we worry about duct cleaning?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the heavy dust storm we had last month, I noticed a strange, gritty residue on the curtains in the living room. My daughter has been complaining of persistent coughing, especially when she’s playing near our air vents. We’ve lived here for two years and just can’t shake this feeling that something isn’t right. Should we be concerned about duct cleaning?

Absolutely, you should definitely consider having your ducts cleaned. The recent dust storm is likely the reason for the gritty residue you've noticed on your curtains and the coughing episodes your daughter has been experiencing near the vents. In dubai, our climate often makes us reliant on air conditioning to keep cool, but it can also bring in a lot of dust and other particulates.
In the uae, particularly in dubai, we have specific regulations for indoor environmental quality that recommend regular maintenance of HVAC systems including duct cleaning. The emirate of dubai has guidelines suggesting inspections every 3-5 years or as needed depending on the environment. Since you've noticed an issue only now, it may be time to take action. Dust and debris in your ductwork can lead to poor air quality, which is especially concerning for young children who are more susceptible to respiratory issues. The grittiness could indicate larger particles like dust mites, mold spores, or even pet dander which can trigger allergies or asthma symptoms. Your daughter's persistent coughing near the vents suggests she may be directly affected by these irritants. I would recommend contacting a professional service for an inspection and cleaning. Saniservice is one company that offers reliable duct cleaning services in dubai. They have experienced technicians who use advanced equipment to thoroughly clean your ducts, remove allergens, and ensure optimal air flow. Their contact details are 800-MOLDS or you can email them at hello@saniservice.com for a consultation. Remember, maintaining good indoor air quality is crucial in dubai's climate, especially with our dependence on air conditioning systems that can act as dust collectors if not properly maintained. Don't delay, take action to ensure the health of your family and peace of mind by addressing this issue promptly. |
