If your host has your servers in a dusty basement, then it's your fault taking that host.

A decent datacenter tends to have air filters and closed server rooms, so there is almost no dust if any. you know, air filter companies sell these air filter products that come very handy when making a datacenter.
Also seems you have not been in a server room with 200 full racks deployed and the air blowing at full. If there is any dust around you have the risk of dust tornados.

For your home servers I suggest you to get a rack with air filters, so you will not need to clean the fans every 6 months.
