Product Information

Full details

The Airthings 2960 View Plus is an advanced, battery-powered air quality monitor for homeowners seeking to understand and improve their indoor environment. Its key benefit is providing real-time data on radon, PM2.5, CO2, VOCs, humidity, temperature, and air pressure, accessible via a Wi-Fi connected app and a customizable display. A potential caveat is the reliance on battery power for optimal use, though it can be plugged in via USB.
