The fundamental reason for the decline in indoor air quality is poor ventilation and excessive indoor air pollutants. So, how should we avoid indoor air quality pollution? If there is pollution, what are the measures for improvement? What is the role of a dust particle counter and portable PM2.5 detector?

1. People preparing to renovate their homes should pay attention to the environmental friendliness of interior decoration materials. A considerable part of indoor environmental pollution is caused by improper materials used during the renovation process. For example, inferior fiberboard, plywood, paint, coatings, adhesives, furniture, and carpets can release a large amount of organic gaseous pollutants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene. Among them, formaldehyde is one of the most representative toxic gases. Formaldehyde is a gas with a strong irritating odor that can cause headaches, insomnia, coughing, and tearing, and it has carcinogenic effects. Therefore, during the renovation process, try to choose adhesives without formaldehyde, thinners without benzene, and core boards and veneers without formaldehyde to improve the indoor air quality level.

2. After purchasing a new house, furniture, and decorating a new home, do not rush to move in; first ventilate for more than two months. If possible, you can find an indoor environment testing department for testing and listen to expert advice to choose an appropriate move-in time.

3. Select effective indoor air purification facilities. Different air purification devices with various functions, such as air purifiers and range hoods, can be selected based on different types of pollution in rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms.

4. Ventilation is the most economical method to prevent indoor environmental pollution. Regardless of whether there are people in the residence, ventilate as much as possible. On one hand, it facilitates the discharge of indoor pollutants, and on the other hand, it allows toxic and harmful gases in renovation materials to be released as soon as possible. Therefore, maintaining ventilation in living areas is essential; it can keep the concentration of indoor pollutants below a certain level and maintain the cleanliness of indoor air.

5. Scientific research has proven that some indoor plants can absorb harmful gases and reduce the concentration of pollutants in the air.

A PM2.5 detector is a specialized testing instrument used to measure PM2.5 (inhalable particulate matter) values in the air. It is suitable for measurement in public places, atmospheric environments, and indoor air, and can also be used for the evaluation and analysis of air purifier purification efficiency. it uses a high-quality laser PM2.5 sensor developed and produced by Luftmy based on the Mie spherical particle scattering principle, and adopts the PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm to invert the mass concentration of particulate matter, making data reading fast and accurate.

Dust sensor brand Luftmy's high-precision PM2.5 sensor LD15 is a high-precision particle concentration sensor based on Laser Mie Scattering Theory. It can continuously collect and calculate the number of suspended particles of different sizes in the air per unit volume, i.e., the particle concentration distribution, which is then converted into mass concentration and output in the form of a universal digital interface. Luftmy's high-precision PM2.5 sensor LD15 features small size, high precision, strong anti-interference capability, low power consumption, long life, zero error alarm rate, and short response time. This high-quality laser PM2.5 sensor can be embedded in various instruments or environmental improvement equipment related to suspended particle concentration, such as fresh air systems and air purifiers, providing timely and accurate concentration data.
