indoor air quality

When did you last check the indoor air quality of your home?

Covid 19 has raised concerns about the health and safety matters at home. Before the pandemic people used to move around and spend most of their time away from home divided into many different areas of their travelling for work. This kept the frequent change in air from place to place. But now since people are confined to their homes, indoor air quality has become a critical question. This hugely impacts the home living conditions. Air pollutants such as dirt, dust, hair, curtain and carpet fibers, tobacco smoke and carbon monoxide accumulate in homes every day, and this is intensified by people now staying at home almost 24/7.

Harmful effects of air pollutants

 

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) warns of the effects of indoor air pollutants, which include some respiratory diseases, heart disease & skin diseases. Health effects may be experienced soon after exposure or possibly, years later. It is important to improve the indoor air quality in your home even if symptoms are not visible.

Inspection and cleaning

 

The most important and heavy contributor to the indoor air quality is the HVAC systems. If you regularly inspect and clean your AC systems you can be at ease about the air quality at home. We at HiTech FM, while providing AC Duct cleaning service to a number of clients across Dubai, have found that the debris cleaned out from the AC Ducts and Vents consisted mostly of human and animal hair, carpet & fabric fibers and a lot of dust. Research tells us that dust cleaned out from AC Ducts contains over 200,000 different bacteria and allergens. It is highly recommended to get your AC systems inspected and cleaned at earliest. These systems, if not properly cleaned may cause increased risk of asthma, allergies, and pose risks for people with compromised immune systems.

Indoor air quality check

 

When moving into a new home or buying a new house for yourself. We highly recommend to thoroughly check indoor air quality of your new home or property. This is an equally important aspect of your home, in fact we would call it the most important factor to consider when moving in or buying a property. Why? Because since other maintenance services will improve the looks and functioning of your home, AC Duct cleaning in Dubai will directly affect & improve the functioning of your health and body wellness. God knows under what conditions the previous tenant or owner would have been living in the house.

All HVAC systems must be inspected and cleaned and disinfected at least once a year.
