Airthings 2930 Wave Plus - Comprehensive Radon & Air Quality Monitor

Condition: Appears Brand New, Packaging A Little Scuffed But Product Unaffected

Protect your home’s air quality with the Airthings 2930 Wave Plus. This advanced air quality monitor checks radon, CO₂, VOCs, humidity, temperature, and air pressure. It delivers clear, real-time results, ensuring a safer, healthier environment for your family.

The Airthings Wave Plus monitors six crucial elements. It detects radon—a hidden gas linked to long-term lung concerns. Regular readings mean you can take action quickly. The device also tracks carbon dioxide, which affects comfort and alertness. It senses VOCs, which often come from home cleaners and paints, and may cause minor breathing issues if left unchecked.

Because air quality changes with seasons, knowing these numbers matters. Humidity and temperature can shift daily. Accurate readings help you control your HVAC system better. The monitor’s pressure sensor also assists in reading indoor air trends. It’s vital for those with allergies or respiratory conditions.

Setup is simple. Use the included bracket to mount on a wall or ceiling. Or, just set it on a table. The design is minimalist and works in any room. Power comes from two AA batteries. Expect them to last up to 16 months, so you won’t replace them often. The device syncs over Bluetooth with the Airthings app. The app works on iOS and Android. It stores daily statistics and shows helpful graphs.

Visual feedback is fast. Wave a hand in front, and the ring lights up: green for good, yellow for warning, and red if there’s an issue. There’s no need to open the app to check basic results. But when you want detailed numbers, the app will break them down by day, week, and month. This helps you spot patterns if problems repeat.

The Airthings 2930 Wave Plus also excels in smart home compatibility. It connects to Alexa and Google Assistant. You can link it with IFTTT. For instance, a smart fan can run when CO₂ gets too high. You can receive voice alerts about your air quality. With the Airthings Hub, sold separately, you get Wi-Fi access. That lets you check air stats from anywhere even when you’re not home.

This monitor fits a wide range of homes or workplaces. Anyone who wants to track air health, reduce radon, or watch for VOCs can benefit. It’s ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, or basements. Offices and classrooms need clean air, too. The Wave Plus can help ensure that.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Question: How accurate is the radon detection on the Airthings Wave Plus?
  Answer: The Airthings Wave Plus uses reliable technology for radon measurement. After you set it up, it calibrates for seven days. Accuracy starts at about 10% at 5.4 pCi/L but will improve with use. After two months, it gets to around 5%. This is important for catching long-term radon exposure. Consistently monitoring helps ensure accurate readings. Calibration is automatic, so there’s no extra work for you.
• Question: Can the Wave Plus monitor particulate matter (PM2.5 or PM10)?
  Answer: The Airthings Wave Plus does not track particulate matter like PM2.5 or PM10. Its key focus is on radon, CO₂, VOCs, humidity, temperature, and air pressure. If you need PM monitoring, consider pairing it with a different device made for those particles. That way, you can get the full picture of your indoor air.
• Question: Is the device compatible with Wi-Fi for remote monitoring?
  Answer: Alone, the Wave Plus connects via Bluetooth. For true remote access, combine it with the Airthings Hub, which is a separate purchase. The Hub enables Wi-Fi, letting you check stats from your phone or computer, no matter where you are. This helps if you travel or want to manage several rooms.
• Question: Who should use a device like Wave Plus—homeowners, renters, or businesses?
  Answer: The Wave Plus is suitable for everyone. Homeowners can use it to watch air quality changes through the year. Renters benefit too, especially in basement or older properties. Workplaces, schools, and daycares also need to monitor air, since a safe environment is legally and morally important. Anyone wanting long-term health gains will benefit from monitoring air quality daily.
• Question: How do I know when to take action if readings are high?
  Answer: The device’s light ring immediately warns you if any value is too high. The app gives you exact numbers and explains the risks for each kind of reading. If you see a persistent problem, like high radon, you should follow local safety guidelines. Getting extra ventilation or a radon mitigation system may be needed for your property’s safety.
