Measurement before interpretation
Indoor air readings in context
Choose a monitor by the measurement the exact model supports, then compare readings over time. A consumer monitor is not a medical test or a complete indoor-air survey.
Temtop Air is a commercial product site in the same operating network as SortMyHouse.
- 01Confirm the pollutant or condition measured
- 02Record placement, activity and time
- 03Investigate the source separately
Start with the question
A useful reading begins before switching on
Placement, ventilation, occupancy and nearby activity can change a number quickly.
Which measurement do you need?
Match the concern to a documented sensor instead of assuming every monitor covers every pollutant.
PlaceMonitoring a home office?
Record occupancy and ventilation and confirm that the selected model actually measures CO2.
MaintainCan the reading be compared?
Use repeatable placement and model-specific care and calibration instructions.
Product fit
What an indoor monitor can and cannot establish
The number is an observation from a specific sensor, place and moment.
Useful for
Observing supported measurements and comparing patterns with activity and ventilation.
Check first
Exact model, sensor list, range, placement, power, calibration and logging behaviour.
Cannot establish
A medical cause, complete air safety or the source of a pollutant on its own.
Current listing scope
Do not mix specifications between models
- Product type
- Portable indoor air-quality monitor
- Listed readings
- PM2.5 and AQI appear in the current technical specification; confirm the exact model
- CO2 claim
- The current title mentions CO2, but the specification must confirm the sensor before reliance
- Interpretation
- Compare readings with placement, timing, occupancy and ventilation
A wider home question
Is the reading connected to damp or ventilation?
SortMyHouse explains how observations fit alongside visible moisture, occupancy and ventilation evidence. The link is disclosed because both sites are in the same operating network.
