Wireless indoor air monitoring
Wireless and remote indoor air monitoring
Wireless sensor networks remove the cabling cost and disruption that traditional BMS-integrated monitoring imposes. Battery or PoE nodes stream calibrated IAQ data over secure cellular, Wi-Fi or LoRaWAN backhaul to a cloud dashboard — making it practical to monitor at scale across multi-site estates.
Network shape
A wireless monitoring deployment at a glance
Wireless networks are sized to the building. The trade-offs are battery life, backhaul, and how much data the dashboard surfaces in real time.
Cellular / LoRa / Wi-Fi
Selected per site coverage and IT policy.
Battery / PoE
Battery nodes typically 2–5 yrs lifetime.
1–15 min
Configurable per parameter and power budget.
Cloud dashboard
Remote view, alerts and exports.
No cabling, low disruption
Wireless nodes deploy in hours, not weeks. Ideal for live workplaces, multi-tenant buildings and retrofit programmes where running new cable is impractical.
Secure cloud backhaul
TLS-encrypted transport to a tenant cloud dashboard. Role-based access for FM, ESG and occupier teams without granting network access.
Real-time alerts
Threshold and trend alerts for CO₂, particulate and TVOC events trigger automatic notifications to facilities or building owners.
Multi-site visibility
Estate dashboards consolidate dozens of buildings, supporting portfolio-level IAQ reporting and benchmarking.
When to choose wireless
Where remote IAQ monitoring fits
Live workplaces where downtime is expensive; multi-site portfolios needing consistent IAQ visibility; landlord and ESG programmes covering many tenancies; buildings without spare BMS points; and any context where access is intermittent and remote oversight matters.
Often deployed alongside indoor air monitoring systems, continuous air quality monitoring and IAQ data logging.
