Ac Duct Cleaning

In addition to being hot and humid every day of the year, it’s also very common for your air conditioning unit to be constantly running while you are currently living in Dubai. Everyone loves their house to be kept cool, but we tend to forget how to keep it that way because of the air conditioning ducts. This article is for people who own a home or villa or have a business that uses AC. We’ll discuss what AC duct cleaning is, why it’s important, and how it relates to other services you’re probably already using. Once you finish reading this article, you will know how to make sure that your house has healthier air, your air conditioning unit runs much more efficiently and your home feels better overall. And yes, we’re Desert Link Technical Works and we will help you with that, no pressure at all, just plain and simple.

What Are AC Ducts, Anyway?

To provide you a little illustration as to what your AC system is like, think of it like your body. Your air conditioning unit is your heart and the ducts are your veins. The ducts take the cool air from the AC unit to every room in the house. Over time, dust, sand (thank you desert), pet hair and even mold will accumulate in the ductwork. The particulates do not remain stationary in the area where they originated; they move out into your household, the living room, the bedroom, and eventually into your lungs. That is disgusting and should be viewed as a cause for concern.

How Do You Know If Your Ducts Are Dirty?

These are some indicators that your ductwork requires cleaning:

– If you experience more sneezing inside than out of the house.

– If you notice a musty odor when operating AC unit.

– If your home energy bills begin to significantly increase.

– If your home has obvious temperature differences between rooms controlling same HVAC system.

– If you observe dust coming out of vents.

If any of these occur at your home, you may have found that your ductwork requires cleaning!

What Happens During a Duct Cleaning?

When you reach out to Desert Link Technical Works, first we perform an inspection of the ductwork using a small camera to see what is present inside the ducts. Second, we utilize specialized equipment to remove all dust, debris and any other foreign matter which may be present; we use both vacuum cleaners and brush rollers to deeply clean the ductwork. Your air conditioning system will be as clean from the inside as the exterior will appear!

Why It’s Extra Important in Dubai

Dubai is stunning; however it’s also very dusty — due to sandstorms, construction sites, and everyday living found therein. Therefore, your ducts will become very dirty and quickly from the aforementioned items as well. With you using the air conditioning unit on a nearly daily basis, that dust continues to be circulated through out the unit. Clean ducts = cleaner air = no allergies and an efficient air conditioning unit…simple math.

A Real-Life Example 

Example of a typical family located in Arabian Ranches (2 kids & some type of pet), who are sneezing more often than usual as well as they have a smell in their living room, typically said parcel would attribute the cause of said issues to the weather. Upon calling us at Desert Link Technical Works, we would check the faults/dust inside their duct system and would immediately see the amount of accumulated dust and hair in their ducts. The end result would be a cleaner smelling environment and the cessation of sneezing instants for example usually resulted in caring for your ducts prior to having such an issue occur, the nuance of having to clean behind your vent covers often goes unnoticed until it becomes unexplainable in nature.

How Duct Cleaning Fits Into the Bigger Picture

Duct cleaning is just one part of a larger overall approach. While duct cleaning will improve the efficiency of your new air conditioner to work at optimal levels once installed, duct cleaning doesn’t do so alone..If you are doing a complete renovation serviced then you should clean your ducts as either part of that renovation or before you perform that renovation. You can also pair the duct cleaning service with deep cleaning service or tank cleaning service for additional rejuvenation. In addition, we have worked with our painting and marble polishing services to ensure that your home looks and feels like new. When you are upgrading your exterior yard through either landscaping or interlocking we will also coordinate with the installation of the exterior air conditioning units so they operate at optimal levels. In addition, our plumbing and electrical services departments will also ensure that everything is functioning properly together. Don’t forget the importance of conducting your annual maintenance; duct cleaning can be included with bundled maintenance options to keep your home in its best possible condition.

How Often Should You Clean Your Ducts?

According to experts, a minimum of 2-3 years between air conditioning duct cleanings is suggested, but if you live in Dubai, it’s recommended that you clean them once a year. The reason for this is due to the large amounts of sand and high temperatures that create an environment where the AC unit operates much harder than it normally would elsewhere. If you have pets or allergies or want to keep your house smelling fresh, it is best to have an annual clean performed. Desert Link Technical Works provides Annual Maintenance Plans to make sure you are aware of when to schedule your next clean.
