Sensor guide
Sensor placement affects the quality of every EnvIQ reading, trend and recommendation. This guide explains the principles without exposing technical setup details.
Indoor sensors should be placed in the room or zone being monitored, away from direct heat sources, open windows and temporary moisture sources where possible.
The goal is to capture representative conditions for the space, not a distorted reading from a radiator, window sill or enclosed cupboard.
An outdoor reference sensor helps EnvIQ compare inside and outside conditions. This supports ventilation suitability, thermal context and stronger evidence confidence.
Outdoor sensors should be protected from direct rain and extreme direct sunlight while still representing outside air.
Reliable monitoring depends on consistent readings, stable placement and clear room assignment. If a sensor is moved, EnvIQ preserves historical placement context so previous evidence remains meaningful.
