Air Quality Log — HK 402

Welcome to AIRSPOT

This app helps you log indoor air quality readings from your portable CO₂ monitor over 7 days.

Your Assignment

Record at least 3 CO₂ readings per day for 7 days (minimum 21 total readings).

Study period:

Critical step: Wait at least 10 minutes in each location before recording your CO₂ reading. The app includes a built-in timer to help you do this correctly.

How to Take a Reading

1. Arrive at the location and place your monitor at breathing height (desk/table level), away from windows, doors, and your direct breath.

2. Open the app and enter your location details.

3. Start the 10-minute timer and wait.

4. When the timer finishes, record the CO₂ ppm value shown on your monitor.

5. Fill in the environmental details and save.

Tips for Good Data

• Try to capture a variety of spaces: classrooms, your home, transit, dining areas, libraries, etc.

• Include at least 1–2 outdoor readings as a baseline reference (~400–450 ppm is typical outdoors).

• Name your locations consistently (e.g., "Huff Hall 209" not just "classroom") so you can compare repeat visits.

• Keep the monitor powered on and away from drafts for accurate readings.

Data storage: All readings are stored locally in this browser only. If you clear browser data or switch devices, your readings will be lost unless you export a backup. Use the Export tab regularly.
