About this Product/Service
Indoor air quality is now widely acknowledged as a key component in the wellbeing of building occupants and amendments to Building Regulations Document F Vol 2 now highlight requirements for ventilation. This includes the benefits that carbon dioxide (CO2) monitors can provide in measuring CO2 concentrations in indoor spaces such as workplaces, schools, and hospitality venues to ensure that ventilation systems are functioning correctly, and indoor air quality is maintained.
Carbon dioxide is a naturally occurring gas, high levels of which can have a negative impact on building occupants and is associated with the negative health effects of Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). Issues include drowsiness, headaches, and difficulty concentrating, as well as fatigue, dizziness, and even respiratory problems.
Installing a CO2 monitor can ensure building occupants are aware of carbon dioxide levels, allowing them to take appropriate action to ventilate the room and increase airflow throughout the space if needed.
Kidde’s CO2 Monitor is a mains powered non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) unit designed with an easy-to-read LCD screen which displays the CO2 levels from 400 to 5000 parts per million (ppm) and saves the readings of up to the seven previous days. Notably, the monitor uses a ‘traffic light’ LED visual aid to allow easy identification of CO2 levels, even from a distance: with green representing 400 to 999 ppm – signalling good indoor air quality; orange denoting readings of 1000 to 1499 ppm – indicating deteriorating indoor air conditions associated with poor air quality; and red displays for readings above 1500 ppm – the level associated with headaches, drowsiness, and loss of concentration and where it is necessary to ventilate indoor space as a result. At this level, the device’s audible built-in alarm also sounds to clearly alert occupants to take action.
The current temperature and humidity is also shown on the display, and the monitor has a built-in automatic brightness adjustment. The monitor comes with a 12-hour rechargeable battery back-up and can be free-standing or wall mounted.
