Congratulations on taking this important step toward living a healthier life.
By keeping track of your radon levels, you can make healthier decisions in the spaces where you spend most of your time. Reducing your exposure to radon will reduce your risk of lung cancer.
The Airthings Wave provides you with detailed information about radon, temperature, and humidity levels on your phone, Airthings Dashboard or simply wave in front of the device for a visual indication of your radon levels. Airthings Wave 2ndgen connects using Bluetooth or with the Hub using Airthings Smart Link.

Sensor icons
Radon–Decrease exposure to this radioactive gas that accumulates in buildings and homes. It is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers but can be managed with continuous monitoring.
Temperature –Indoor temperatures can affect performance, mood and comfort level. Individual sleep patterns are also affected by indoor air temperature.
Humidity–Too much or too little humidity can affect allergies and cold or flu symptoms. When humidity levels are high, mold and rot can occur. Low humidity levels cause static electricity, dry skin and hair, and increased susceptibility to colds and respiratory illness.
Troubleshooting
- In the device settings menu, click update device.
- Make sure you have the detector within the range of 5 meters or 15 feet.
- Check if Bluetooth is turned on.
- Check if the power indicator is blinking.
- In the app, go to device settings menu and update radon alarm settings.
- Wave in front of the detector to snooze for 1 month when alert is active.
- Open your phone settings and verify that the Airthings Wave app is running in the background. You can usually find this in the app manager section of your phone settings.
- Make sure you are in Bluetooth range periodically.
- Check if the power indicator is blinking.
- If the power indicator is blinking red, or not blinking at all, the battery level is low. First, sync your data and then replace the batteries. We recommend AA alkaline (LR6).
