Have you ever lived in Dubai where the AC runs 24 hours on, 24 hours off, right? But have you ever paused to ask what really is circulating around your house? When you have been having constant sneezing or headaches or that stuffy feeling that can never leave, then your air conditioning may be the issue rather than the solution.
The majority of us believe that when we stay at home, it keeps us safe from the dust and pollution of Dubai. The thing is that indoor air may be polluted five times more than the outside one. That is a big issue in a city where we spend almost 90 percent of the time indoors.
Normally your body will inform you when something is not right. Poor air quality may be the cause of the following symptoms in case you have them primarily at home:
| Symptom | What’s Causing It | How Serious |
| Sneezing or coughing all the time | Dust buildup in AC ducts | Medium concern |
| Indoors beginning headaches | Poor ventilation | Needs attention |
| Musty or stale smell | Mold in your AC system | High priority |
| Dust all around, even after cleaning | Dirty AC filters | Medium concern |
| Breathing difficulty at home | Contaminated ductwork | Get help now |
Notice a pattern? The majority of these problems will be related to your air conditioning system. And that is logical when one considers it.
Your AC does not merely cool your house. It is continuously drawing air into filters and ducts and forcing it out into your rooms. When such parts are not clean, then you are inhaling recycled pollution throughout the day.
And this is what goes on behind the scenes. Air is forced through various components each time your AC is operating. First, it passes through filters which are expected to collect dust and particles. It is then pumped using ducts, cooled using coils and eventually reaches your living spaces. Sounds simple enough.
However, in the dusty setting of the city of Dubai, everything becomes complex quickly. The filters become clogged within weeks. Ducts become dust filled, sometimes even mouldy. Moisture and dirt are gathered in coils. And these components, dirty as they are, do not just work poorly. They are very active in introducing pollutants in your house.
| AC Component | What Builds Up | Health Impact |
| Air Filters | Dust and pollen | Causes asthma and allergies |
| Air Ducts | Mold and bacteria | Has respiratory complications |
| Cooling Coils | Dirt and moisture | Develops low air flow |
| Drain Lines | Mold colonies | Produces musty odors |
The more time you take to respond to such problems, the more difficult they become. Mold spreads. Dust accumulates. And your family keeps breathing it all in.
This is what we do at Breezy Tech HVAC. We have found hundreds of Dubai houses where the air quality issues are the same and we know how to resolve them.
We begin by AC system deep cleaning. That is the indoor unit, the outdoor unit, the filters, and coils. Everything is cleaned properly. The air quality in most homes improves by 40 to 60 percent after a single deep cleaning session. You will see the difference right away. Less dust, cleaner air, easier breathing.
Cleaning up is not always sufficient. In case your ducts are severely polluted or ruined, we will advise their complete replacement.
To start with, our group of professionals inspects your ductwork with specific equipment. Then we also clean up all the accumulated dust, mold and debris with the help of high powered vacuums. Where the ducts cannot be cleaned, we will get rid of the old ones and put up fresh, clean ducts.
This service removes up to 99% of contaminants in the air. Think about that. Virtually all particles that happened to be making you sick, gone.
There are times when your air quality issues are caused by AC failures. Drain line leakages provide the ideal environment for mold.
Seals that are broken allow unfiltered air into your ducts. Poor airflow means that pollutants are not being forced out. We diagnose what is wrong and correct it in the appropriate way to ensure that your AC actually improves your air quality instead of damaging it.
| Service Type | How Long It Takes | Air Quality Boost | Typical Investment |
| AC Deep Cleaning | 2 to 3 hours | 40 to 60% better | AED 300 to 500 |
| Duct Cleaning | 3 to 4 hours | 70 to 80% better | AED 500 to 800 |
| Full Duct Replacement | 1 to 2 days | 90 to 99% better | AED 1500 to 3000 |
While you wait until you can get professional service booked, you can do the following:
Replace your AC filters once every month during the peak summer. Stay dust free, keep all AC vents clear. Use your AC with the fan option for approximately 10 minutes a day to move air around. Try to keep the humidity of the indoors less than 60%. And the most important thing, you should not miss your annual professional maintenance.
But let’s be honest. DIY maintenance will only take you so far. You can switch filters the whole day long but you cannot go inside your ductwork to clean years of accumulated mold and bacteria. Professional assistance makes all the difference in that regard.
We have assisted numerous Dubai families in finding a solution to their air quality issues at Breezy Tech HVAC. We have certified technicians, high quality equipment, and will always tell you what and why we are doing what we are doing.
