Internal Wireless Sensor CO2 Concentration
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a colourless, odourless gas that naturally occurs in the Earth's atmosphere. It is produced through respiration in living organisms, the combustion of fossil fuels, and the decomposition of organic matter. It is most commonly measured in parts per million (ppm).
The normal concentration of CO2 in outdoor air is approximately 400 to 420 ppm. However, such levels are rarely achieved indoors, making it essential to monitor CO2 levels in enclosed spaces.
When CO₂ levels in the air increase, individuals may experience various physical and mental symptoms, which intensify as the concentration rises.
What is the recommended CO2 concentration indoors? A value of 400–1,000 ppm is the recommended indoor CO2 level.
Above this level, one may experience fatigue, drowsiness and reduced concentration. At levels above 2,000 ppm, headaches, palpitations, confusion or dizziness may occur. (Very high concentrations of CO2 (15,000–40,000 ppm) are critical and lead to loss of consciousness and death.)
How to maintain fresh indoor air and low CO₂ levels?
Ventilate regularly. The best method is short, intensive ventilation. Ideally for 5–10 minutes every 3–4 hours. Open windows fully to allow for rapid air exchange. If possible, create a draught by opening multiple windows.
Avoid overheating. Excessive indoor temperatures (above 24 °C) increase oxygen consumption and consequently elevate CO₂ levels. 18–22 °C is ideal – you will feel better and the air will stay fresh.
Use an extractor fan and ventilation systems. Cooking, showering, and using gas appliances generate CO₂ and humidity. Extractor hoods and ventilation systems can help to get the air out quickly.
