FAQ

How does the AeroGuard air quality monitor help measure air quality?

The AeroGuard air quality monitor measures air quality by using built-in sensors that track key pollutants and environmental factors. It detects particulate matter (such as PM2.5 and PM10), gases like VOCs (volatile organic compounds), and measures temperature and humidity. The device continuously collects this data and provides real-time readings, giving a clear picture of the indoor air quality level. This helps identify when ventilation or filtration is needed to maintain a healthier indoor environment.

How does a professional air quality monitor contribute to employee productivity?

A professional air quality monitor or air quality sensor, such as the AeroGuard, helps you continuously monitor and improve air quality. This prevents high concentrations of particulate matter and CO₂, which can lead to headaches, fatigue, and loss of concentration. Research shows that better air quality measurement directly leads to higher productivity, lower absenteeism, and greater workplace satisfaction among employees.

What’s included in the free AeroGuard mobile app?

With the AeroGuard app, you can measure air quality in real time, directly on your phone or tablet. The app collects data from all sensors and sends notifications when something unusual is detected. This allows you to respond quickly. The app stores 30 days of data and can be used by up to three users. Available for iOS and Android. Want insights into trends or historical data over a longer period? Use the AeroGuard web portal.

What does the AeroGuard web portal offer?

For larger teams or workplaces with multiple zones, the web portal takes the smart air quality meter to the next level. Upload a floor plan of your location, divide it into zones, and view live data from each zone. Ideal for companies with shift work or different departments. The portal also displays the lifespan of the particulate sensor and provides full access to historical data for trend analysis. You receive notifications via the dashboard or by email. Works on any web browser, desktop or mobile.

Can the AeroGuard be linked to MyPlymovent.com?

Yes. The AeroGuard can be linked to MyPlymovent.com, where you can centrally manage all Plymovent systems. Here you will also find documentation and insights from other systems, such as ControlPro Connect, installed at your facility.

What do the colors of the LED ring mean?

The LED ring offers a simple, color-coded indicator that allows you to monitor indoor air quality:

Green (Good): The air quality is excellent. Low pollution and safe to breathe.
Yellow (Moderate): The air quality is acceptable. Sensitive individuals should exercise caution.
Red (Unhealthy): The air quality is poor. Prolonged exposure can be harmful—especially for people with respiratory issues. Immediate action is required.

What role does an air quality monitor play in automating ventilation and extraction?

An air quality sensor can be linked to ventilation and exhaust systems for automatic control. As soon as the sensor detects that preset limits are exceeded, a signal is sent immediately to refresh the air. This ensures optimal air quality without manual intervention.

Can the AeroGuard air quality monitor contribute to certifications such as WELL, BREEAM, or RESET?

Yes, the AeroGuard supports certification processes by continuously and accurately measuring air quality with professional sensors for particulate matter, CO₂, and VOCs, among others. The measurement data is suitable for reports required for certifications such as WELL, BREEAM, and RESET, where monitoring and demonstrably improving indoor air quality is key. This way, the AeroGuard helps achieve and maintain sustainability and wellness certifications for buildings.

Can the AeroGuard be used for reporting for audits?

Yes, the AeroGuard continuously records all key air quality parameters and securely stores them. Through the web portal, you can easily generate reports suitable for audits, certifications, and occupational health and safety compliance. This way, you always have reliable and traceable air quality measurement data available whenever an audit or inspection takes place.
