Want to measure in a new location?

No problem! All Airthings products are portable.

When you want to change the location (address) or room of your Airthings product and start a new measurement, follow the procedure below.

Step 1: Select the monitor you would like to move

Select the settings icon in the top right-hand corner.

Step 2: Select "Device settings"

Step 3: Select "Change Room"

Select the new room name or edit the name of the new room yourself. You can also select "Change Location" (if you want to move it to a different building).

Your monitor will automatically set up a new measurement and will start acquiring data from the new environment. Your monitor will go through a 7-day calibration period to adjust to the surroundings of the environment, and your past measurements will be available to view in the online dashboard.

Remember! You should measure in one location for at least 30 days for a reliable long-term average. The longer you measure for, the more accurate the reflection of your environment will be.
