PDQ-Kelly: I wanted a reliable radon test to confirm the results reported from a mail in test kit. This device was invaluable while allowing me to test the radon levels in different areas throughout my home under various conditions (i.e. window open/closed, furnace/air conditioner on or off). I was grateful to allow other family members to use this device to test their radon and air quality levels as well. Thus, I was able to confidently install a radon mitigation system to lower radon levels in my home and reduce our health risks. The Airthings monitoring devices were highly recommended by the technicians that installed my mitigation system.

Rielan: Il prezzo che si paga è un pò alto ma la qualità del prodotto vale.
Funziona molto bene peccato che non ha la lingua italiana, ma poco male, é di facile comprensione.

vlad m.: I enjoyed my experience with airthings, however, the hub went bad 2 years into owning it. When spending 300+ on something I expect it to last a little longer.

Shame.

Update:

After pulling some teeth airthings decided to replace my hub. All is well now.

Mox: Funziona bene, di per sé. Da quando l'ho preso ha sempre funzionato. Il problema è il software. Immutato, fa sempre le stesse cose da anni o peggiora: non si interfaccia con Google Assistant e non esistono widget. A me pare assurdo, veramente assurdo, che un sistema del genere non abbia uno stupidissimo widget per mostrare due numeri in croce.
Oh certo si possono usare altri servizi, una enorme perdita di tempo ed energie. Con quello che costano devo anche farmeli io i widget e le chiamate? Dai, inconcepibile.

Whiteyman24: Purchased in May 2023 after I spent about a full month of being sick. We were concerned we had mold issues, but this system told us it wasn't. However, when we first hooked everything up, it detected Radon levels of 10.0 pCi/l +, and the EPA recommended safe levels are below 2.0. We decided to get a Radon Mitigation system installed, and now thankfully our levels are .5 pCi/l. Thankful for this system that continuously monitors the air quality for VoC's, Mold, and Radon. It helps give me piece of mind my family is safe.

CptnPinky: Overall I am happy with the package. I’m a little disappointed that the full size wave doesn’t track particulates.

David Garfield: The concept behind this system is good, but its execution and design is, in my experience, terrible. I have wrestled for two days with the assistance of Airthings support but in the end I have given up and am returning it.

Before I explain let me reassure you that I am sufficiently tech-savvy to know what I'm doing. I am recently retired from the IT industry where I had been since 1979 and I have several computer systems in my home, including a media server and a NAS. I also have four hub-based home automation installations, which I implemented myself. I'm telling you this because very often one reads negative reviews on Amazon and rolls his eyes and thinks that the reviewer is an octogenarian whose last brush with technology was wiring a three-pin plug.

Initial set up of this system goes swimmingly well. You install the app and then connect to the devices via Bluetooth. But in order to be able to monitor these devices remotely you then have to connect them to the hub, and that's where the ordure hits the ventilation system.

I first realised that I hadn't successfully registered the devices with the hub when I kept seeing one of them constantly failing to...

Neil Fairall: The jury is still out on whether these devices are going to ease my mind or make me more insecure.

I do like that the radon detector tells me I don't have a radon problem. I literally have part of a rock ledge in my basement so that is a comfort.

It irritates me when it tells me that "Brr, it's cold in the living room". There doesn't seem to be a "my wife thinks anything above sixty three degrees Fahrenheit is a sauna" adjustment option. It would be really nice if I could tweak the ranges of acceptable temperature/humidity.

I'm a bit concerned at the average numbers of volatile organic chemicals it reports in our bedroom, but I am also concerned at how much two adults and two fairly large dogs in the same room with the windows closed and the door barely open might be contributing to said VOCs.

I guess I like being able to monitor conditions in the house at all times. If I'm not home and the temperature goes up by a few hundred degrees I'll know to call the fire brigade.
