This monitor provides the air quality index for inside and outside air. It has inside and outside temperature readings, inside humidity, inside carbon dioxide level with a graph showing these levels for the past 12 hours. Different screen views which highlight the information that is most important to you are available. A screen saver option is provided. The User Manual is easy to read and has valuable information about pollution and carbon dioxide. The app has local and world wide air quality index information. I highly recommend this product if you are concerned about your inside air and the air quality of your area and the world.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Sensitive to the Air Quality.

Good product overall! Charger was fried however with the slightest of contact with water. This device is not suitable for outdoor use unless its super well sheltered. Does the job well. Functionality of the buttons is poor and could easily be a cheap touch screen for the price of the product. Overall, the Air Quality node is satisfactory.

Hi there,
Thanks for taking the time to review your AirVisual Pro.
You are correct, the AirVisual Pro is indeed suitable for outdoor use, but you must ensure that it’s housed in a shelter that protects it from rain, wind, and direct sunlight with natural airflow. For some suggestions and tips on safely housing your AirVisual Pro, please give us a call at (888) 560-1020, M-F, 8AM – 4:30PM PST.
To address your other point, the large LCD screen is beneficial for prominently displaying clear, easy-to-read AQI numbers and other relevant air quality data without having to access an app on a mobile device. The AirVisual Pro features a button interface to provide a simplified user experience while keeping its LCD screen clean and fingerprint-free.

Good air tester

This is a good air tester. It makes the reality of air quality issues apparent and urgent. For the price I wish it could read VOC content of the air.

This monitor is certainly making waves in my home. I live with a brother who smokes next door to me and parents who like to cook (sauté/fry) food with olive oil. This last summer I stupidly baked a chicken breast for my doggie with coconut oil on top. That was a “the more you know” learning lesson. I think about the loving act of parents all over the world making breakfast for their family but unbeknownst to them are doing harm. I don’t like saying this. I want to make accurate statements here. I’ve shaken articles of clothing over the monitor to see it say they’re a hazard. My brother’s work shirts that our poor mother steams for him every morning register at 165 give or take. Always with no fail. I basically picture smokers these days as being on fire. It’s upsetting. I don’t like saying this but it seems appropriate as a darn descriptor. It’s upsetting to see him go out and smoke outside in poor weather. I imagine this is what it’s like to double down. I’ve taken this monitor to the gym with me only to find out that the air inside was (over a sample of time), consistently moderately polluted. This monitor is both an invaluable and valuable tool to invest in. I recommend it to anyone.

A Life Saver

I live in Pennsylvania and our air quality at times is dangerous. Our government officials don't can about our health. So, I have two of these devices in my house and probably will purchase another for outside. My only complaint is I wish IQAir offered a protective enclosure for outdoor placement of their products.

Reasonable

I bought this several months ago. It was a decent device until recently CO2 analyzer got a glitch with readings jumping from 500-1,000 to 2,000-2,500 range even though there were no obvious or significant changes in heating or weather conditions.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi there,
Thank you for leaving us your feedback.
We’d love a chance to investigate the spike in carbon dioxide that you experienced while using your AirVisual Pro, but we need a bit more information.
Did you have a large number of people in your home during this carbon dioxide spike? People and animals exhale carbon dioxide as a natural function of respiration, so if you had many guests over and your living spaces had insufficient air exchange with the outdoors, the carbon dioxide level could have spiked.
We’d love to learn more about the factors that may have contributed to this spike. Feel free to give us a call at (888) 560-1020, M-F, 8am – 4:30pm PST.
We look forward to hearing from you!

Made a big difference in my life
on January 3, 2019

I was concerned about the air quality in our house because of woodsmoke from neighbours. Woodsmoke contains fine particulates and these pass through the lungs and into the blood stream where they cause inflammation and plaque in the arteries that can lead to cardiovascular disease and heart attacks. Having had a heart attack, I wanted to protect myself from these fine particulates. Getting an IQAir monitor made a big difference in my life. I found I could keep PM levels low in the house with a good whole house air filter on our HVAC, even when readings for PM2.5 (particles that are 2.5 microns in size, a size measured by governments to determine air quality, or lack thereof) were high. Not knowing what the levels were caused anxiety and stress. Now, I can see the levels and feel more confident and relaxed. The monitor also shows CO2 (carbon monoxide) levels and I chose this unit in part for that feature. Keeping PM out of the house is one thing, but you need ventilation - i.e. bring air in from the outdoors. So it is a bit of a balancing act. Bring in air but keep out PM. I can't use a carbon filter as I am allergic to carbon (which is in woodsmoke too), so need to ventilate when PM levels are low outside. I can take the IQAir outdoors as it has a battery backup and get a reading. Surprisingly, there are times when the air smells good but the PM2.5 is fairly high, and times when it smells bad and PM2.5 is not very high. Without the monitor, I would not know. As a test, I placed the monitor in our bedrooms at night and found that CO2 levels got to a moderately unhealthy level, so ran the furnace fan 24/7 to circulate air in the house, pulling CO2 out of the bedrooms at night, and blowing in fresher air from the rest of the house through the HVAC ducts. Now sleeping levels of CO2 are healthy. We sleep better and feel more rested. I have learned from using the monitor that when I start feeling the air quality is getting stuffy and stale, CO2 is around 700 ppm. I can now judge that level without looking at the monitor. That is when I need to get more ventilation.
