Airthings 2960 View Plus – Battery Powered Radon & Air Quality Monitor (PM, CO2, VOC, Humidity, Temp, Pressure)
$329.99
Get the big picture of what’s in the air you breathe at home. Comprehensive, WiFi-connected, battery-operated indoor air quality monitor with always-on radon detection. Get powerful peace of mind with seven air quality sensors. Learn if your home has a radon gas problem that needs fixing. Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer among non-smokers and kills more than 6x the number of people than home fires and carbon monoxide poisoning combined. The digital radon detector uses passive diffusion chamber sampling with alpha spectrometry detection for accurate and reliable readings. Ensure that your radon mitigation solution is working as expected. Always on monitoring lets you identify if your mitigation solution stops working correctly so you can respond quickly. Track the concentrations of fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) in your home’s air. More and more people live in areas affected by city pollution and wildfires, a PM 2.5 air quality monitor can help you understand whether you are affected and how best to minimize the risks of air pollution. Discover the sources of airborne chemicals (VOCs) in your home. Not all VOCs are unsafe but many can cause skin and respiratory irritation. When you link high VOC levels with your symptoms, you are better able to eliminate those VOC triggers. Track CO2 concentrations to optimize airflow in your rooms. Adequate ventilation is key to creating a comfortable environment and decreasing virus transmission risk. Watch in real-time how VOC and CO2 levels go down when you improve ventilation. View Plus connects directly with other Airthings air quality monitors in your home to enable a multi-room monitoring solution.

YYYYup
I have had this unit for almost 2 years now, I will buy another. It literally saved my life!If you work from home, like I do, then you need this unit or something like it. I had Radon levels above 7pCi/L and had been living with it without knowing it, for almost 3 years. For those that don’t know, Radon is a radioactive breakdown of uranium, thorium, or radium in rocks, soil, and groundwater. The CDC and EPA claim that levels above 4pCi/L are considered highly toxic and proper mitigation should be taken to reduce the levels. This is why Radon mitigation systems are installed in nearly every home across the United States.If you don’t know, educate yourself about Radon and understand that radon causes over 21,000 lung cancer deaths in the United States each year and 2,900 of those deaths are people that have never smoked a day in their lives! For me, every now and then, I would cough and a small spat of blood would sometimes appear and i could never figure out why…Now, do you NEED this system?- Absolutely not, there are plenty of radon detectors out there and they are pretty cheap.Why do I recommend this system and why did I choose it?- Historical Data: This bad boy tracks all of your air quality metrics over time. This is extremely important when you want to understand cause and effect in anything in life. Many of the “bad reviews” talk about how some of the metrics displayed are inaccurate when compared to another device that specializes in one or many of the metrics this unit does display. Accurate comparisons only matter when comparing against a controlled environment and are purely for the sake of argument. This is important to understand because no unit needs to be 100% accurate, it just needs to be accurate to itself so that when you make a change, you can properly see that the change is affecting the metrics in a way that makes sense for what you meant to accomplish.For example, I had high radon (the value of the metric didn’t matter other than the fact that it is higher than 0… it’s radioactivity, is anything above 0 TRULY acceptable?) When I installed my radon mitigation system, I could watch my Radon levels drop tremendously over time, which proved that my radon mitigation system was actually working as expected! Also, I haven’t had any spots of blood appear when I cough… I call this a success.- Dashboard: Airthings has a nice application and semi-customizable dashboard which makes viewing really easy to do, and from anywhere in the world. When my pets are home while the family is away, I can notify my neighbor to open a window to let some fresh air in, while we’re away.- Alerts: Always cool to have alerts so you don’t even need to “monitor” the metrics. Fun fact, CO2 builds up pretty rapidly in a well-sealed home. When you go through insulation techniques to seal off cracks and crevices to improve your HVAC efficiency in the thermal zone, it is easy to forget that CO2 has no easy escape. Needless to say, this little guy alerted my phone and I was able to crack a window and keep my family safe. I later installed a fresh air intake on my HVAC system and again, could watch the metrics historically, as they fell to a more than acceptable range, yet again proving that my air intake installation was actually doing its job.I hope this helps anyone looking to decide on this purchase. It has been an absolute godsend to have in our home and I didn’t even get into some of the other things it helped me solve that had been plaguing us.

Great product after 6-8 months use, worth the $$$
Purchased this to track radon in our mostly-finished basement area. Wanted (1) A product that was wifi connected that could (2) track radon and humidity levels over a long period of time, (3) offered some kind of long-term dashboard/UI that was easy for human consumption, and (4) gave some level of warning if levels were astronomical.While spendy, this product was one of the only ones to check off all the boxes. I considered going with the bluetooth-only model to save money, but I’m really glad I didn’t. The convenience of getting alerts from anywhere, seeing results any time of day or night is really worth the extra coin.I’ll admit, Airthings really needs to work on their alerting system. Getting alerts about CO2 when working out in its vicinity, particulate matter alerts when cleaning, it’s a bit annoying when the main alerts I want to see are radon and humidity, and I really wish they would allow you to set your own thresholds, but the smartphone app’s UI and usability is exceptionally good and the product is easy to work with.My other nitpick would be battery life and/or no rechargeable batteries. The supplied batteries lasted for a solid 100-120 days or so. I replaced with my normal Energizer long-life battery and got maybe 75 days out of those before changing a couple weeks back to the next set. I usually can tell when the batteries are going because sometimes the results get a little crazy. I’d also like smartphone app alerts when the battery levels are, say, below 20% but I don’t see that option. I mean, I’d love to just plug the unit into a power adapter and forego batteries totally, but I don’t recall if it was an option on this unit, and batteries have sufficed. I may look into that later.Overall though, yes, it’s expensive. But for constant monitoring, with alerts, to monitor all sorts of airborne levels, ACCURATELY, there isn’t another product on the market I could find. I’m a satisfied customer, with a little polish in a few places, I could really see Airthings becoming a household name to the level that Ring and Nest have become. Great little product here!

Product bricked and Airthings will not replace – Updated with happy ending
Purchased Airthings Plus ($299). Worked great monitoring air quality in a fully finished basement where our teenagers spend time studying, watching tv, and having sleepovers. Out of the blue the device just stopped working. Screen displays horizontal black lines as shown in picture. I think Airthings pushed a software update that completely bricked the device. Called support and after practically zero troubleshooting, basically asked to replace batteries, they told me to buy a new one with no explanation. They are not standing by their product at all. Highly disappointed as I think they broke it with an update they pushed.UPDATE – March 2028I have to admit that it is not often a VP of a company contacts you directly to address a problem. Airthings did exactly that and replaced my Airthings Plus with the latest model and software. VERY satisfied with the service and how they handled my situation. The new unit has been operating flawlessly since December 2025 when they sent me the replacement. We also had some work done in the basement over the winter and it was great to monitor the VOCs before letting the kids back down there. With this monitor we were able to see the spike and monitor air quality until it was back in the safe zone (about a week). Love knowing that my kids are safe and not being exposed to VOC, Radon, etc. Thank you Airthings!

I love this product. It was very easy to connect to wifi and to have the ability to track PM2.5,TVOC, radon, temperature and humidity all on one unit is very convenient. I bought a second unit to monitor the downstairs as well. As far as accuracy goes, it seems to track PM 2.5 closely to our outdoor conditions so I am happy. It is still too early to tell on radon but am doing a 3 month traditional test that will be completed later this spring so I will be able to compare. One benefit is that I can shut down air purifiers (saving filter life) when conditions dictate. Also, as CO2 or TVOC levels increase, I am able to start ventilating. Amazing to see the spikes in PM2.5 with cooking. Anyway, great device with excellent data stored for analysis. I love it.

Ich habe mittlerweile schon 4 Airthings View Plus Sensoren daheim und bin sehr zufrieden damit. Sie machen einen sehr solide verarbeiteten Eindruck und meiner Erfahrung nach erzeugen alle Sensoren sehr vergleichbare Messungen. Die Einrichtung war kinderleicht. Die Integration in ein Home Assistant Heimautomatisierungssystem funktioniert ebenfalls völlig problemlos. Besonders schön ist auch das e-paper basierende Display, welches man prima ablesen kann und zusätzlich sehr stromsparend arbeitet.In einem Fall hatte ich einen defekten Sensor. Keine Stunde später hat der sehr freundliche Support bereits geantwortet, ein paar Lösungsvorschläge gemacht und als klar war, dass es ein physischer Schaden war direkt die Zusendung eines Ersatzgerätes veranlasst.Ich bin sehr zufrieden und kann das System nur empfehlen.
