The Science Inside: Choosing the Right Sensor Technologies

Varying sensor types and calibration methods impact data reliability. Learn how to identify a truly accurate air quality monitor for commercial uses.

Indoor air quality (IAQ) sensors are quickly moving from “nice to have” to essential amenities for your commercial building. These sensors help smart HVAC systems kick on and off to keep the air quality perfect for occupants. But if you’re not using an accurate air quality monitor, you may be better off not using one at all. You’d probably fire your investment advisor if all their advice was based on vibes. IAQ sensors follow the same logic. They need accurate data. 

You can gather accurate indoor air quality data by knowing what to look for in a sensor. Think of it as skills you could use to spot the advisor who got their finance degree from a sketchy website. Choosing the right IAQ monitoring system saves you money and generates valuable data.
