Sensor icons

  • Airborne chemicals and toxins – Total Volatile Organic Compounds or TVOCs are vapors emitted from all sorts of daily products including paints and furniture, wax and cosmetics, cleaning and hobby products, cooking and human breath. At high concentrations they can be harmful and cause negative side-effects from minor eye, nose and throat irritations all the way to liver and kidney damage, depending on the level and length of exposure.
  • 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 too 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

First and foremost, always make sure that you have updated to the latest device software

  • In the device settings menu, click update device.

Not able to connect to my device

  • Make sure you have the detector within the range of 2-5 meters or 5-15 feet.
