Description

Get the big picture of what's in the air you breathe at home. Comprehensive, WiFi-connected, battery-operated indoor air quality monitor with always-on radon detection. Get powerful peace of mind with seven air quality sensors. Learn if your home has a radon gas problem that needs fixing. Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and kills more than 6x the number of people than home fires and carbon monoxide poisoning combined. The digital radon detector uses passive diffusion chamber sampling with alpha spectrometry detection for accurate and reliable readings. Ensure that your radon mitigation solution is working as expected. Always on monitoring lets you identify if your mitigation solution stops working correctly so you can respond quickly. Track the concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) in your home's air. More and more people live in areas affected by city pollution and wildfires, a PM 2.5 air quality monitor can help you understand whether you are affected and how best to minimize the risks of air pollution. Discover the sources of airborne chemicals (VOCs) in your home. Not all VOCs are unsafe but many can cause skin and respiratory irritation. When you link high VOC levels with your symptoms, you are better able to eliminate those VOC triggers. Track CO2 concentrations to optimize airflow in your rooms. Adequate ventilation is key to creating a comfortable environment and decreasing virus transmission risk. Watch in real-time how VOC and CO2 levels go down when you improve ventilation. View Plus connects directly with other Airthings air quality monitors in your home to enable a multi-room monitoring solution.

  • Price was steep, but worth it.
I was hesitant because of price and the description for their own products could be written much better. Everything seems to work well. Takes a week to get Radon and CO2 readings, but it seems accurate or agrees with other sensors I have, and the green/yellow/red alerts lights appear to be set at reasonable levels. Monitoring air quality can tell you much more about what happens in the house than for health and comfort. I use these devices to know when people have the furnace or air condition running with the windows open, and other things are awry once you know how the climate behaves in your house under certain circumstances. Bought a not much cheaper brand INK*** before buying this to replace an Awair, it was defective out of box and alarm lite indicators settings were not practical, so it was returned. Was using the Awair brand a few years before getting this Airthings, then Awair decided to stop supporting the product, so web interface and readings no longer worked. Awair offered to sell an updated unit at cost reduction, I was willing to pay but never happened - Never Awair again. This Airthings unit is same price as Awair products and Airthings appears of better quality, offers more readings and has a little more functionality with respect to the data. I think the display could be better, difficult reading in low light. Nice to have no touch, so less chance to get finger residue on it. Air quality monitoring product cost have skyrocketed in price (now that this is more popular), far more costly then cost to make, this Airthings unit appears to be the best buy for what you get. ... show more

  • Multiple sensors with good user interface
Tl:dr I recommend this product. I believe that it is currently the best on the market and provides a good array of sensors for the price. I have not received any financial or other consideration for this review. I have no connection to the company. Details, positive and negative, are found in the review. Intro: In operation (after 7-day calibration) for three weeks beginning October 2021. Unit is located indoors in the bedroom of a small single-story home in northern California. I purchased View Plus after an online evaluation of competitive units. The purchase decision was based on the array of sensors, acceptable display of sensor parameters, appearance of a good user interface, ability to easily download the data in Excel .csv file format, designed in Norway, and assembled in Tunisia (visible in product photos). I expect that this is the first product that I’ve ever owned that was assembled in Tunisia. There were no Amazon reviews as I purchased the unit as soon as it became available. My primary motivation for purchase was to measure indoor particulate pollution during the wildfires. I wanted a more quantitative measure than the colored indicators on our air purifiers. However, I have since become more interested in the carbon dioxide (CO2) and VOC levels. The inclusion of Radon, temperature, humidity, and atmospheric pressure sensors is a plus. Particulates: I have had an extended conversation with Airthings via the app. They are responsive, although it may take a few days or even a week, if you ask technical questions as these need to go to the engineering team. As this is a consumer and not scientific device, there are cost limits on the nature of the particle sensor. Airthings does calibrate the particulate sensor to a scientific instrument. However, the Airthings sensor is most likely not able to distinguish between different particle size and scattering distributions that give the same overall signal. I had plans to do a cross correlation study with a scientific instrument, but circumstances conspired against me. At this time, I am satisfied that Airthings has done enough work that the threshold limits (green <10, yellow <25, and red >25 µg/m3) for the PM 2.5 sensor are reasonably close to the equivalent limits used by the US EPA and European PM 2.5 AQI. For the data that I’ve collected, there is very little difference between PM 2.5 and PM 1 signals. I have not investigated why. One caveat is that the data collected so far has an average PM 2.5 and PM 1 values of only 2 µg/m3 and only a single peak greater than 25. Since the rains have (finally) come, I don’t expect to have the opportunity to check against more polluted air conditions in the near term. Carbon dioxide: This provided the most surprise about the conditions in our home. I found that ventilation in our bedroom is insufficient to keep levels in the green without the window(s) being open at night. I am looking into ways to ameliorate this problem when keeping the windows open is not an option. When I first received the unit, I placed it outdoors to see if it would read the expected value of about 400+ ppm for average CO2. The unit read about 550, but it was before the 7-day calibration was completed. Over the course of the past month, when the room was well ventilated, I observed readings as low as 469 ppm. The unit will show the increase in CO2 when either 1 or 2 people are in the unventilated room for any significant period of time. VOC (volatile organic compounds): The measurement is in parts per billion, ppb. This is my first experience with VOC data recording. The unit is certainly responsive and exhibits significant signal when we are cooking, especially frying. As there are many different types of VOC, I cannot comment on whether one should take significant actions based on the results in the home. Do fry-cooks have career related health issues? At a work environment, such as an organic chemistry lab, there may be many types of VOCs that are clearly harmful to health. Radon: All the values that I have recorded are below the green threshold limit of 2.7 pCi/L (picocuries per liter). The average value over 2000 measurements is 0.7 and has a standard deviation of ±0.4. Temperature: Comparing the value to household sensors indicates that the temperature displayed by the Airthings sensor maybe between 1- or 2-degrees F high. However, I consider that within measurement error for accuracy given the nature of the other sensors. Precision appears to be excellent. Relative Humidity: Comparison only with household sensors. Appears to be within a few percent. Atmospheric Pressure: Excellent agreement (within 0.5 mBar) with external values (local weather data). Range of data recorded between 1001 mBar and 1022.5 mBar. User Interface (Unit): There is an E-Ink type display that is not illuminated. This is a very low power display and conserves battery. No power used to maintain the current display reading. It has high contrast and easy readability. You can choose 2 sensors to display via the app (Phone or PC). When you wave your hand in front of the unit, it indicates its assessment of the overall air quality (good, fair, or poor) and shows any of the readings that cause a fair or poor result. It then returns to the standard readout. I have not found the lack of illumination to be detrimental. User Interface (Phone): I’m using a Samsung Galaxy A51 with Android 11. The software allows you to choose among several devices that you might have. As I have only one, it displays a summary that is in the attached photo. You can then tap “VIEW IN WEB DASHBOARD” to get graphic displays for different periods of time. You can choose to get notifications via the app, if values exceed the Airthings recommended thresholds. You can choose the sensors for which to have notifications sent. These thresholds cannot be changed. I think it would be good to be able to change the thresholds with the understanding that one is responsible for the values used. User Interface (PC/Web): I’m using an Intel-based PC running Windows 10 Pro and MS Edge for this unit. See attached photo. The graphing is generally quite good. I’d prefer to be able to choose the order in which the different sensors are displayed. It might be possible to do this by deleting sensor graphs (called tiles) and then adding them back. I’ve not tried that. The vertical scaling is automated and determined by the range of values of the data being displayed. The scale cannot be changed, but you can zoom using touch, if your computer/phone has that capability. Adding the historical data (not shown in the photo) will expand the vertical size of each graph and give the minimum and maximum value for the data range. Bug: You can add a tile for the outdoor weather, but only for Oslo, Norway! They have given me instructions for changing the location, but the software for the View Plus is not the same as for the software shown in the instructions. I have made them aware of this. It is unclear to me whether they can and will offer software updates. Downloading Data: The .csv file contains the time and sensor data for the entire time the system has been recording for that location. If I don’t do something to re-start history, the data file will eventually grow to unmanageable size. They should allow you to specify the range or use the range chosen for the graphing display. The file name is also fixed as the serial number of the unit. These are serious limitations given the extra work caused for the user, I consider them bugs. The data are separated by semi-colons, so converting from text to columns in MS Excel is easy. The data are recorded with a UTC time stamp. Since I’m in California, it is easy enough to subtract 7 hours and put the local time in the next column. The headers have a few character-conversion bugs: “μ” instead of “µ.” The character “” is inserted in the Temperature column header. These are minor. The date/time format is 2021-09-30T20:04:28. The “T” separator is a nuisance and prevents Excel from recognizing the form of the data. If they would replace the “T” with a space, then Excel would have no trouble. I use the replace function to do this. Again, it is no big deal, but should be a simple fix. I have made Airthings aware of these bugs. I will append this review, if I find additional information that may be pertinent to other users. I hope this has been helpful. Appendix 1: I've added a comparison of the PM2.5 data from the Airthings View Plus (indoors near an open window) to Purple Air data from an outdoor sensor (not mine) about 100 meters from my home. The Purple Air data are shown in the US and European scales. The data are for the 24 hours of October 29, 2021. Correlation is excellent for the main peak. ... show more

  • Beware before buying, this product is not ready for "prime time" in Networking.
Before you buy this product just be aware of these things. 1. Do take a moment to look at the high number of negative reviews for the (required) AirThings App. This will give you a first glimpse of why this company doesn't think things through from a User perspective. 2. If you are running a Network where your Router's SSID is "hidden" for security purposes, do not buy this product. AirThings does not understand this basic Networking concept and you will not be able to add this Device to the App. The App depends upon seeing "only" Networks that are broadcasting. Hidden SSIDs are well-known to Router setups. It was surprising that AirThings didn't consider that configuration when designing the (required) App to use this product. 3. This product "depends" upon your phone running the App and there are no other ways for you to install and use the product. Even the online "AirThings Dashboard" requires that you have this product configured and added via your cell phone on a continuing basis. You will have no method (other than AirThings' online and phone App) to access your data. Apparently, AirThings wants to control everything about this Product (and how you get to use it) regardless of whether you like it. 4. Support is very poor from AirThings. You have to use their Chat online to contact anyone. It is very slow (5-10 minutes before anyone even acknowledges). Even worse, the people on the other end have little ability to help you unless it is something that is simple. It is one of the worst support mechanisms I have encountered for product help. 5. While on the subject of "customer support", the product comes with almost no User Manual because it so heavily depends upon the phone App to operate. AirThings has documentation online, but you have to hunt for it through various FAQs. When you do find some information (online), there are no PDFs for Consumer download. Again, an indication of not thinking like the customer. Bottom-line, this company did not consider the "real world" of the Consumer very well and they are not suited to handling their own deficiencies either. This product would get Zero Stars from me (if I could pick it). I returned the Product to Amazon today for a refund and will look elsewhere. ... show more
