Using the Air Performer

Understanding the air quality bar

• The air quality bar automatically goes on when the Air Performer is switched on, and lights up all colors in sequence.
• After approximately 30 seconds, the particle sensor selects the color that corresponds to the surrounding air quality of airborne particles.
• The color of the air quality light is determined by the highest risk index from the indicators: PM2.5 (particles smaller than 2.5 microns), IAI (Indoor Allergen Index) and Gas (VOC, odors, etc.).
• IAI and Relative Humidity (RH) levels are only available through the app.

PM2.5

• AeraSense sensing technology accurately detects and quickly responds to even the slightest particle change in the air. It provides you with reassurance with real-time PM2.5 feedback.
• Most of the indoor air pollutants fall under PM2.5 – which refers to airborne particle pollutants smaller than 2.5 micrometers.
• Common indoor sources of fine particles are tobacco smoke, cooking, and burning candles. Some airborne bacteria and the smallest mold spores, pet allergen and dust mite allergen particles also fall under PM2.5.

Gas refers to the level of potential harmful gases (incl. VOC, odors, etc.).

IAI refers to Indoor Allergen Index (only available through the app) The professional-grade AeraSense sensor detects the level of indoor air allergen and with numerical feedback from 1 to 12 the potential risk level of indoor air allergens can be displayed. 1 indicates the best air quality.
