PM_2.5

Particulate matter is a range of particles of dust, dirt, and aerosols that become suspended in the air. PM_2.5 has a diameter of less than 2.5 micrometers and is invisible to the eye. Most bacteria fall under this category.

CO₂

Carbon Dioxide (CO₂) is the air we breathe out, which impacts health and productivity. The level of CO₂ in the air is a good indication of a room's ventilation.

Humidity

When humidity levels are too high, mold and rot can occur while low humidity levels can encourage airborne virus spread and increased susceptibility to colds and respiratory illness.

Temp

Temperature affects mood, comfort level, and alertness.

Light

Monitoring when the light is on or off in a space can help identify wasted energy usage.

Pressure

The weight of the air, technically called barometric pressure, can cause headaches, joint pain, and fatigue.

Differential Pressure

The difference of pressure between two points. Unbalanced air pressure leads to energy losses from leakage and infiltration.

Radon

A radioactive, invisible gas that comes from the ground. It is the largest cause of lung cancer among non-smokers.

VOC

VOCs (volatile organic compounds) are airborne chemicals, odors and gaseous toxins, causing short- or long-term health effects from minor eye, nose and throat irritations to liver and kidney damage.

Noise

Noise level should be kept between optimal ranges in areas of long exposure to boost productivity and concentration. High noise levels can leave people with long-term damage. We measure sound intensity in dB(A).

Virus Risk

The calculation of how conducive your indoor environment is to the survival of airborne viruses and likelihood of transmission.

Mold Risk

A calculation of how conducive your indoor space is for mold growth. Mold thrives in poorly ventilated, humid spaces and is harmful to people’s health.
