Why is it important to measure air quality in the office?
Whether the indoor air in the workplace is good or bad affects our work performance. To know what the air quality is in the office, you need to check it. This is the only way you can tell what's floating in the air and whether it's time for a fresh air kick.
Concentration & performance in the office
Good air quality contributes significantly to employees' ability to concentrate. Poor air can make people feel tired and fatigued, which affects productivity. Measuring air quality allows companies to respond to problems early and ensure that employees are working in an environment that promotes their performance.
Recognize risk of infection & prevent diseases
Poor air quality, on the other hand, promotes the spread of diseases. If the air is not sufficiently ventilated and cleaned of viruses or bacteria, the concentration of pathogens increases. By monitoring air components, you can contain the spread of pathogens and thus positively influence your employees' sick leave.
Humidity
Dry air in the office can lead to symptoms such as dry eyes, irritated respiratory tract, dry skin and difficulty concentrating. Excessive humidity, on the other hand, can promote the formation of mold. Measuring air humidity is therefore crucial to ensuring a comfortable indoor climate. Air measuring devices such as the air-Q determine whether relevant measurement data exceed recommended limit values and can send a command to an air purifier via a smart interface to start cleaning the air in the office or adjust the intensity of the power level accordingly.
The solution for healthy office air: The air-Q office guard
The air-Q office guard is an intelligent measuring device that helps companies monitor and improve the air quality in their offices. This innovative device offers a wide range of functions that go beyond "just" air measurement.
Includedsensors in air-Q Office Guard:
Carbon dioxide | Carbon monoxide | particulates PM1 | particulates PM2.5 | particulates PM10 | VOC gases (formaldehyde, methane, toluene, etc.) | Temperature | Relative humidity | Air pressure | Noise
Real time air quality control
The air-Q office guard checks air components in real time (interval ~ 1.8 seconds) and reminds you to ventilate regularly to maintain a comfortable indoor climate. By combining intelligent ventilation instructions and real-time office air quality data, it enables targeted, efficient and proper ventilation in the office.
Pollutant detection
In addition, the air monitor detects air components as well as environmental factors and pollutants such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or other toxins that weaken concentration and thus reduce performance. By detecting these pollutants, you are able to take action and locate and eliminate the source.
Virus-free index
Using our air-Q Virus-Free Index in the new app version, you can detect the carbon dioxide content of the room air in the office, which allows you to draw conclusions about the risk of infection. For more information on the air-Q Virus-Free Index, see our separate article "The air-Q Virus-Free Index: How to tell if the indoor air is making you sick".
In the air-Q Health Advisor you will find individual tips to improve the air quality in the office, meeting room or break room.
Further advantages for companies of the air-Q office guard as an alarm device
Due to the large number of sensors and optional additional sensors, the air-Q office guard offers you the most powerful and intelligent air analysis. No other measuring device on the market has more options and sensors. Use this competence for your office and increase the thinking ability as well as the well-being of your colleagues and employees through good air quality. If the limit values are under- or exceeded, the device shows you this by means of the intuitively recognizable LED traffic light on the device. In addition, the device sends you a warning message directly as an email or push message.
Smart functions
As a signal generator, the air-Q is used for automatic window opening, control of air purifiers and regulation of heaters. As a result, it can help optimize air quality in real time and reduce energy consumption.
Pollutant detection
The device not only detects pollutants such as particulates and chemicals, but can also visualize temporal patterns of their concentration. This gives companies valuable insights into potential hazards and allows them to take timely action.
Risk of mold
With the air-Q you can detect mold hazards. You will then receive notifications via email or push message. This enables early intervention and protection against health risks.
Presence detection
Based on relevant measured values such as noise or CO₂, the air-Q office guard detects the presence of people in the room and can warn when no one should actually be present - e.g. at night or on vacation. This contributes to safety and efficiency.
Gas Leak Safety System
The air-Q provides a comprehensive security system that warns of gas leaks, fire, smoke and unwanted access. Companies can rely on this device to ensure the safety of their premises.
Detect power outages
The air-Q office guard also detects a power failure and warns by email and push message, even if the air-Q is already deactivated.
Conclusion: air-Q Office Guard is more than just an air analyzer
Overall, measuring the air quality in the office is of great importance, as it not only promotes the health and well-being of employees, but also increases productivity and detects potential hazards at an early stage. The air-Q office guard is a powerful tool that helps companies achieve these goals while working more energy efficiently. It is specifically tailored to the needs of companies and offers a wide range of options for improving indoor air quality.
