Aqara Smart Air Quality Sensor (VOC) – Intelligent Air Monitoring for Your Home

The Aqara Smart Air Quality Sensor is an essential tool for anyone who cares about maintaining healthy air quality at home. This device monitors the levels of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), temperature, and humidity, helping you ensure a comfortable and healthy living environment. VOCs can come from various household sources, such as furniture, cleaning products, and paints, and high levels can lead to health problems, ranging from headaches to respiratory issues. This is where the Aqara Smart Air Quality Sensor becomes your reliable ally.

What are VOCs and why should you be concerned?

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are chemicals that are released into the air from everyday products, such as paints, furniture, and household cleaners. Long-term exposure to high VOC levels can harm your health, causing short-term issues like eye and throat irritation, and long-term effects on the liver, kidneys, and nervous system. The Aqara Smart Air Quality Sensor helps you detect elevated VOC levels in time, allowing you to take action to improve your home’s air quality.

Temperature and Humidity Measurement. In addition to VOC levels, this sensor accurately monitors the temperature and humidity in the room, helping you maintain a comfortable environment.

Low Power Display. The E-Ink display ensures excellent visibility in any lighting condition, and the low energy consumption allows the battery to last up to a year.

Works with Smart Systems. Compatible with Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, and Alisa, allowing easy integration with other smart home devices and automatic actions such as turning on a fan when high VOC levels are detected.
