NetatmoSmart Indoor Air Quality Monitor, CO2 Sensor, Temperature, Humidity, Noise - Home Control, Healthy Environment, Automatic Alerts for Better Air at Home - NHC-UK

I went on to buy 3 more of these as it works wonderfully with my HomeKit environment of heating, dehumidifying, and noise. It took a while to figure out how to integrate but once I did, I love it and my house has improved drastically. I love this and just bought 3 more as gifts. Also, it measured the CO2 levels in my room which helped me diagnose and realise that my constant headaches had to do with high co2 levels in my house. Would highly recommend.

First of all, i have a Netatmo welcome device and this serves as a great home security device. Since I was satisfied with the build and usability of their other products, i decided to try the smart indoor air quality monitor as I used to own the Canary and it did all of that too.The Netatmo Smart Indoor Air quality uses a different app to the security device. It is equally easy to set up and within a few minutes it will start taking readings at a regular interval. You get to see averages and zoom in and out of fancy charts that show your indoor air quality.Noise, CO2, Humidity and temperature are its only metrics. I have come to find out that the device doesn't detect smoke or carbon monoxide (i believe they have another device for this). Whilst these are useful metrics, it's hard to say what to do with this information once the novelty of having this device has passed. Luckily this does now integrate with homekit which means you can set up automatic actions when certain thresholds are hit.The device also tells you if the indoor air quality is poor and you should open some windows. Somewhat of a silent killer i hear, so in that sense it has provided more insight into my daily life (and that I dont open enough windows). You can tap the top of the device which will tell you using colour what rating your indoor quality is. What I have found is that sometimes the app doesn't alert me incase of large swings in temperature or co2 levels - something I find to be quite important to the value offering of this product.I have some cases of disconnections but usually the device will just reconnect itself. I have however noted that sometimes you might need to re-add it back into homekit in order to get it displaying again (as it will say the device is not responding). It normally does respond in the app otherwise though, just not apple homekit. You can share the home stats to give someone access to your account - then you and your other half / housemates can have access to this information.The indoor Air quality monitor - does exactly what it says on the tin. it comes with a very simple a functioning app which doesn't really do that much. With Apple Homekit it adds a level of customization and automation which elevates the use of the device. However on its own, it just adds more data to your life which may or may not increase your quality of living. I would give it a 3/5 if you weren't interested in tech, but as data is interesting to me, this gets a 4/5

Surprised with the results!! Turns out insulating your house, stopping all the drafts gives you a high Co2 level. Now I leave the windows open instead..Remember to switch off your internet router 5ghz setting and just leave the 2.4ghz on and it will connect straight away. Then turn the 5ghz back on and your away.I’ve now got 3 sensors and it’s transformed our sleep.Highly recommended

The product is designed for home use and so my initial frustrations attempting to connect the device at my office is not a fair criticism, so is just worth having as a point of not if anyone attempts to use in an office space. It will require particular access to send content back to the netatmo cloud store which not all office networks will allow.Once setup and configured it was working wonderfully and I was able to store and record the readings using their wonderful API. Top work for the team making this available, it's incredibly useful!Unfortunately for my records the device failed after 2 weeks and would no longer connect to my phone after a complete refresh or a home network, so I'm now requesting a replacement, which I hope will last longer than the first, because it was great while it was working.

This does a good job of tracking the data you’ll need. There’s not much say about how it does it. Having HomeKit support really makes a difference and adds usefulness if you have an iPhone and especially if you have a HomePod.The closest competitor is awair which is okay but it lacks HomeKit support, it makes noise (not good for bedrooms) and it loses data every time it disconnects so while it may track more data points like chemicals that won’t matter if it’s not logging anything. Also for U.K. folks, in most cases chemicals will be your cooking which if this is in a bedroom while you sleep isn’t even necessary. So healthy home coach trumps it.If there are any issues it’s that perhaps the tips aren’t necessarily helpful and I guess some people may not like the simplicity of the app but I feel it does what it needs to do. I don’t want to be nagged and dig through piles of data. I can ask Siri what’s up or automate turning on the dehumidifier. That’s what you really need. But if you want something that trains you and tells you exactly what to do maybe it’ll feel like it’s lacking but to be honest the answer will like always be turn on a dehumidifier or open a window. You don’t need to be told that. Just see when it’s best to do those things.

Neat little unit to sit on a shelf, integrates with HomeKit which is one of the main drivers for me buying the 2 I have.The specifications state the humidity sensor is ±3% however when comparing with other sensors, and dehumidifiers I'm seeing more +4% to +6%.The temperature sensor is correct, and the air quality seems likes its giving a good reading (nothing to compare it against other than effects of high levels).
