Why is dust increasing after living room renovation?« Back to Previous Page
|
After the recent renovation of our living room, we've noticed an unusually high amount of dust settling on everything. It’s particularly noticeable on surfaces like the coffee table and the window sills, even though we’ve been cleaning regularly. The air seems a bit thicker too, almost like there's a fine layer everywhere. Has anyone else experienced similar issues post-renovation in Dubai, or are there specific steps to minimize construction dust?

Dust levels increasing after living room renovation can be quite frustrating. In dubai and the UAE, we've seen this issue arise more than a few times following construction activities. The increase is due to several reasons, including airborne particles from demolition, new materials, and even micro-organisms that might thrive in humid conditions.
When you renovated your living room, dust was likely stirred up from old surfaces and materials during the demolition phase. This can lead to an immediate spike in dust levels as tiny particles become airborne and settle on various surfaces. Moreover, if you used any new building materials like drywall or paints, these too contribute to the dust problem, especially when they are not properly sealed. Additionally, the UAE's climate plays a significant role. The high humidity can foster mold growth, which might be contributing to the 'thicker' air sensation you’re experiencing. This is particularly true if your renovation involved moisture-prone areas like bathrooms or kitchens. To tackle this issue effectively, here are some steps you could take: 1. Regular Cleaning: Use a microfiber cloth for dusting and vacuum with a HEPA filter to trap small particles. 2. Humidity Control: Ensure that your air conditioning system is functioning well to maintain low humidity levels which discourage mold growth. 3. Professional Inspection: If the issue persists, consider hiring an expert from a company like Saniservice who can provide a professional indoor air quality inspection and recommend necessary remediation steps. Remember, in the UAE, it's important to adhere to local regulations concerning indoor environmental quality. While we don't have specific laws on dust levels, ensuring your home is free of harmful contaminants is crucial for health and comfort.
