DM-HSD-GU141-IAQI2 • Dubai Municipality

Every building in Dubai now has an air quality score.

Dubai Municipality Guideline DM-HSD-GU141-IAQI2 requires applicable buildings to continuously monitor indoor air quality, calculate an Environmental Indoor Air Quality Index, and maintain compliance reports.

Built to the exact specification of Dubai Municipality's EIAQI standard.

Regulatory Framework

Naseem is designed in accordance with the official Dubai Municipality Indoor Air Quality framework and the Public Health legislation governing the Emirate of Dubai.

Primary References

§33

Article 33 – Obligations of Owners in the Domain of Built Environment Health

Requires owners to:

  • Maintain compliance with indoor air quality standards
  • Conduct indoor air quality measurements
  • Maintain acceptable IAQ levels
  • Ensure proper ventilation
  • Provide IAQ monitoring devices
  • Perform periodic maintenance of building systems
§49

Article 49 – Violations & Administrative Penalties

Provides the legal enforcement framework including:

  • Administrative penalties
  • Inspections
  • Suspension of activities
  • General fines ranging from AED 500 to AED 1,000,000
  • Up to AED 2,000,000 for repeated violations

The law states that the schedule of specific violations and corresponding fines will be issued through a separate resolution of the Chairman of the Executive Council. At the time of writing, that implementing schedule is not publicly available; therefore, Naseem does not attribute any specific fine amount (such as AED 100,000) to IAQ violations.

Understanding Your EIAQI Score

The Environmental Indoor Air Quality Index converts raw sensor data into a single compliance score from 0 to 500.

Naseem EIAQI Platform Capabilities

From Sensor Data to Municipality Report. Automatically.

Real-Time EIAQI Scoring

Every hour, Naseem calculates the EIAQI score for each zone in your building using the dominant pollutant method. When any parameter crosses into an unhealthy range, alerts fire immediately so you can act before the regulator does.

Hourly · Zone-Level · Dominant Pollutant Method

Automated Compliance Reports

8-hour, 24-hour, weekly, and monthly reports generated automatically using the weighted summation method from the DM guideline. Every report references DM-HSD-GU141-IAQI2, includes all sub-indices, and is ready for Municipality submission. Available in English and Arabic in a single PDF.

Tamper-Proof Audit Trail

Every sensor reading is SHA-256 hashed and chained to the previous entry, using the same cryptographic method found in financial audit systems. Data cannot be altered retroactively. Calibration records tracked per ISO 17025. Five-year retention. When the Municipality asks 'prove this reading is real,' you can.
