VIA MERCHANTBest Overall Air Quality Monitor
IQAir Air Quality Monitor
Pros:
- Built-in air quality coach provides suggested remedies
- Provides info on indoor and outdoor air quality
- Lightweight and compact
- App-compatible
Cons:
- Pricey
The IQ Air AirVisual Pro Indoor Monitor is our top pick for indoor air quality monitors because it gives you tips on how to improve your air quality. The built-in air quality coach lets you know if you should run an air purifiersuch as the NuWave OxyPure Air Purifier or open/close your windows depending on your environment so you can be proactive about the changes you see on the monitor and the app.
To be honest, none of the monitors I tested ever picked up concerning levels of particulate matter, carbon monoxide or volatile organic compounds. The only time the IQ Air AirVisual Pro Indoor Monitor ever recommended any action was when I was cooking, and even then, it was just to open the window for a few minutes.
Another great feature is the ability to monitor outdoor air quality on the same monitor and app, similar to the air quality forecast on a weather app. I also like that it easily provides you with historical data to track changes in air quality over time, though, to be honest, the smartphone app was janky and unresponsive at times. Luckily, you can read your data simply by logging onto the company’s website and logging into your account.
Other than that, it checks all the boxes you’d want in an air monitor: lightweight, compact, accurate, easy to understand and app-compatible.
