What Is InBiot and How It Enhances Indoor Air Quality
InBiot offers smart solutions for indoor air quality monitoring and improvement that go beyond just tracking numbers. It’s all about reducing energy consumption, boosting well-being in work environments, and helping businesses achieve valuable certifications by guaranteeing top-notch indoor air quality. Because, honestly, indoor air is often 2 to 5 times more polluted than outdoor air — a fact highlighted by the EPA. This makes monitoring and improving indoor air not just a luxury, but a necessity.
Key Benefits and Vital Air Quality Metrics
Understanding the air you breathe indoors is crucial, and InBiot helps you keep tabs on all the essential elements:
- Temperature: The go-to parameter for room comfort, also influencing how long viruses survive in the air.
- Humidity: Too high or too low? It weakens respiratory mucous membranes, upping the risk of respiratory illnesses.
- CO2: A clear sign of ventilation efficiency. High levels? Expect discomfort, drowsiness, and a dip in productivity.
- TVOC: Volatile organic compounds from everyday products that might affect health both short and long term.
- Particulate Matter 2.5, 4.0, 10, and 1.0: Tiny particles that can penetrate different parts of the respiratory system, potentially causing various health issues.
- Formaldehyde: A carcinogenic gas, volatile and common indoors, flagged by the EU since 2016.
- Ozone: Reactive and corrosive, often a by-product of office equipment or disinfectants.
- NO₂: One of the six most critical indoor pollutants, toxic and highly reactive.
- Carbon Monoxide: Odorless and colorless, but dangerous as it reduces blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity.
- Noise: Not just annoying — high noise levels can cause stress, disrupt communication, and even lead to accidents.
Comfort and Efficiency Made Simple
InBiot doesn’t just throw data at you. It offers clear, visual scores that make understanding air quality conditions a breeze. It helps identify the best temperature and humidity ranges, so energy savings and comfort go hand in hand. Real-time ventilation efficiency indicators mean you can tweak your systems on the fly, ensuring a healthy, breathable space. Plus, it spots vulnerable areas early, helping prevent health issues and material damage like mold growth.
Real-Time Air Quality and Virus Resistance Insights
Using the RESET AIR INDEX, InBiot displays your indoor air quality status in real time — no guesswork involved. And with the RESET VIRAL INDEX, it even shows how resistant your space is to virus spread. This kind of insight is invaluable, especially in today’s world where health and safety are top priorities. It’s like having a health check-up for your building’s air, constantly running in the background.
Why It Matters: People, Business, and Planet
Indoor air quality isn’t just a technical issue — it’s about people’s well-being, business success, and environmental responsibility. Healthy spaces mean happier, more comfortable staff and clients, which translates to peace of mind and satisfaction. For businesses, better air quality boosts productivity, enhances reputation, and cuts energy costs. And for the planet, optimizing ventilation and air conditioning systems means less energy waste and a smaller carbon footprint. Everyone wins.
Project Impact and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
- SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being — by creating healthier indoor environments.
- SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy — through energy-efficient ventilation and air conditioning.
- SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure — leveraging smart technology for better air quality.
- SDG 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities — improving indoor environments in urban settings.
- SDG 13: Climate Action — reducing energy consumption and environmental impact.
Turning Data Into Actionable Insights
InBiot’s MICA devices don’t just collect data — they transform it into useful information that helps optimize building systems. This means smarter energy use, healthier environments, and happier people. Plus, earning points for certifications like WELL, LEED, BREEAM, and RESET is easier than ever, adding value to buildings and prestige to brands. It’s more than air monitoring — it’s about making indoor spaces better, one breath at a time.
