Awair
Tracking temperature, humidity, C02, chemicals, and dust, Awair displays these 5 readings using a color-coded system, so you’ll know at a glance if something is off. And let’s face it, it’s always nice to be reassured by a glance as well. For added simplicity, Awair connects to an app and makes recommendations for improving the indoor air quality based on the data it collects. On point with the mid-century modern look, the ‘wood and white’ unit is constructed with walnut wood and deemed to be ‘100% toxin-free’.
AirVisual Pro
In a friendly, ‘light and bright’ design replete with cheerful icons and colors, the AirVisual Procommunicates communicate with outdoor air quality stations to give users a complete picture of indoor and outdoor air quality in terms of temperature, humidity, C02, and particulates. It also communicates with smart homes and other devices, even providing an alert system and a forecast feature to keep you a few days ahead of the outdoor air quality.
Foobot
Coming in a minimalist, techie’s dream design, this tall, narrow monitor relies on a color code system to give an immediate visual cue to the indoor air quality. Blue for ‘breath easy,’ red for ‘open a window, stat.’ The unit tracks the usual particulate matter suspects, chemical pollutants, like VOCs, temperature, and humidity. It also stores all of the data and provides charts of various pollutants over time, giving owners the ability to ascertain the source of problematic air quality and make changes.

Speck
With its (very) clever name and simplified purpose, the Speck monitor tracks only fine particulate matter. Providing an easy to decipher, bright touch screen that instantly shows you how certain actions impact your air quality, you can have fun playing ‘what happens if I’: burn a candle, vacuum, open the window, etc.
Dylos
The Dylos units (there are several models) track large and small particulates and store the information for up to 30 days. It uses true laser technology and seems to be less advanced in terms of the display unit and can communicate with other types of technology than its counterparts listed here.
The days when only people with fairly severe allergies or asthma were concerned with indoor air quality are over. People are now aware and informed about the different types of airborne contaminants that can exist indoors and the dangers associated with them. To that end, making conscious choices about building materials, finishes, and furniture is only part of the solution. An indoor air quality monitor is the most effective route to really get a feel for the air quality in your particular space.
