Indoor Air Monitoring Systems — Sensors, Networks and Platforms

An indoor air monitoring system is more than a sensor on a wall. It combines indoor air quality monitors, secure connectivity, a dashboard and an alerting workflow into a managed service that facilities teams can actually rely on.

01

Choosing indoor air quality monitors and sensors

The best indoor air quality sensors share five characteristics: NDIR CO₂ measurement accurate to ±50 ppm with auto-calibration, optical PM2.5 stable to ±10%, factory-calibrated temperature and humidity, MOX or PID TVOC for trending, and secure firmware with over-the-air updates. Specialised pollutants like NO₂ and formaldehyde need dedicated electrochemical or photoacoustic modules.

Specification matters more than brand. We screen indoor air quality monitors against published accuracy, drift and calibration data — not glossy marketing — and we place sensors in the breathing zone where readings reflect what occupants actually inhale.

02

System architecture

Edge. Battery or mains-powered sensor nodes, one per zone, reporting every one to five minutes.

Network. LoRaWAN gateways for multi-building estates, secure Wi-Fi for single buildings, BACnet/IP where the system must talk to an existing BMS.

Platform. Cloud dashboard with per-zone trends, configurable alerts, role-based access and exportable data for WELL, BREEAM and RESET reporting.

Integration. REST APIs or BACnet objects so IAQ data lives alongside energy, occupancy and ticketing.

03

Specified, installed and managed

A monitoring system is a long-term commitment. We handle specification, installation, commissioning and the ongoing calibration cycle, with quarterly reviews built in. The same data feeds our continuous air quality monitoring service and supports any periodic indoor air quality assessment the building needs.
