In Dubai`s hit weather, an air conditioning unit plays the vital role of saving us from extreme heat, however, it’s underappreciated. But there is one important component most homeowners tend to overlook: ductwork. Molds, dust, debris, allergens, and even more unhealthy particles accumulate in air ducts over time, thus cleaning them regularly becomes indispensable in order to have an air conditioning unit that is functioning optimally.
As a Dubai homeowner, you might be indifferent to how dry air and dust storms can drastically affect the veracity of AC ducts. So, let’s discuss why AC duct cleaning system is not a convenience, but an obligation for every Dubai resident.
Enhanced Breathing Air
As previously referenced, the most important perk of AC duct cleaning is the immediate enhancement of air quality indoors. Your air ducts act as conduits which cool air to your house. Unfortunately, over time, these ducts can harbor dust, pollen, pet fur, and other harmful components. Subsequently, when the AC is switched on, these pollutants get circulated across the house which could worsen respiratory diseases and allergies.
The performed cleaning procedures remove the aforementioned pollutants, which enables the air within the home to be fresher, cleaner, and healthier. For families with children, elderly members, or individuals suffering from respiratory illnesses such as asthma, this is the most critical factor.
Improving energy efficiency
An improved energy efficiency is one of the most underappreciated advantages of AC duct cleaning. An increase in dust and debris in the duct systems leads to restricted airflow, which impairs the air circulation needed. This causes the AC system to work harder as it has to push air through the ducts, greatly increasing energy usage and utility costs.
Cleaned ducts also improve airflow; this means that the AC system will work effortlessly and lower energy consumed while cooling the home. In cities like Dubai, where an air conditioning is an almost year-round requirement, lower spending on cooling bills becomes a significant advantage.
Decreased Service Lifespan of Your AC Unit
Just like any other machine, your air conditioning system will only work well if its parts and components are properly maintained. Increments to the strain placed on the AC unit due to dirt and dust gathering in the ducts over time can lead to greater depreciation with the system. This could lead to frequent breakdowns, expensive repairs, or even a premature replacement.
Increased longevity of industrial air conditioning systems and AC duct cleaning can lower the physical strain placed on the system. Preventing some dirt build-up aids in removing obstruction during maintenance and rounds. Rotating the system’s parts and components leads to reduced wear and replacement at its lowest potential.
Bacteria Odor Reduction
Infection can occur without much odor, especially in moist, oxygen-poor areas. Many cleaning substances and formulas can aid or worsen the situation by adding to or washing mold-resistant odors. Getting rid of hidden dirt in your house or effectively cleaning the house does get rid of dirt surfaces and bathrooms.
Stale or musty smells coupled with some cleaning can stem from dirt trapped in the AC ducts gasket. With the Dubai climate, molds and bacteria have a perfect environment to thrive in due to moisture entrapment.
Your cleaning ducts helps to clear out the moisture together with any microbial growth which improves the odor of air. In case the air that emanates from the AC in your house has a musty smell, you can clean the ducts and this solution will work.
Allergy Relief
Being resident in a city that has a high pollen index as well as dust storms means that you are under constant attack of allergy triggers. For patients suffering from allergies, dirty AC ducts would most likely make the situation worse, since the air conditioning unit will circulate the air through the ducts, dispersing allergens through the entire house.
Cleaning the ducts means that the source of allergens is removed and diminishing allergic reactions such as sneezing, coughing and itching will be significantly reduced. This is a huge advantage to everyone suffering from respiratory issues as they rely on breathing uncontaminated air.
Cost Savings
Duct cleaning is associated with an initial expense which will raise concerns for most people but, in the future, the returns will outstrip this expense. With a set of clean components, the AC system works optimally which translates to low energy expenditure. There is also an indirect saving by reducing the cost associated with frequent repair needs and prolonging system life, which saves on future replacement costs.
In addition, improved air quality results in lesser medical concerns, which translates to lower medical costs associated with the treatment of allergies and respiratory issues resulting from the poor indoor air quality.
Stopping Further Harm
Neglecting the cleaning of your ductwork can cause potential hidden risks such as harm to other components of your AC system. Dust and particles within the ductwork can result in clogging of the air filter and other critical parts, which may result in malfunction or breakdowns. To illustrate, dirt accumulation on your AC’s coil can cause it to either freeze or burn out, resulting in expensive repairs.
Regular cleaning of the ducts boosts the performance of the entire HVAC system, ensuring that the system is operating at optimal performance while averting problems and expensive repair costs.
Improved Engagement for Pets and Kids
The need to maintain indoor air purity is crucial when dealing with children or pets, especially the young ones. Children have underdeveloped immune systems and allergies are a common occurrence with pets due to them rolling in dirt. With cleaning the ductwork regularly, ensures your family breathes air that is devoid of these harmful agents making the environment healthier for everyone.
Comfort Level and Cooling Rate Improvement
Dirty ducts reduce the efficiency of your AC system. If your air conditioning unit is taking a longer time to cool your home down, then the issue could be the ducts. This is because clean ducts enable cool air to flow freely, thus improving comfort levels and cooling the unit faster.
As is the case for Dubai, this added AC efficiency becomes important when trying to remain comfortable in the cooling months.
Your Home Investment Value Increase
The current air quality and energy bills of the home being purchased determines the value presented for the house. Therefore, these potential buyers will be appreciative of the fact that by investing with duct cleaning, the home will automatically have its value increased.
If you expect selling your house soon, entire duct cleaning will work into your favor.Why Duct Technical Works Stands Out?
