An area with poor ventilation that is filled with lots of people will likely have much higher CO2 levels than a space with better ventilation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other words, places with high CO2 levels will likely have poor ventilation. Places with lower CO2 levels typically indicate better ventilation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Measuring CO2 is affordable and easy, reliable&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/smartairfilters.com\/product\/co%E2%82%82-monitor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CO2 monitors<\/a>&nbsp;can cost less than US$100, and are portable to allow for testing in multiple rooms. CO2 levels that indicate \u2018good\u2019 ventilation would be any number below 800ppm. If after testing with a CO2 monitor, your indoor CO2 levels are above 800ppm, then you may wish to consider installing filtration systems (such as air purifiers) or improving your ventilation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data shows that homes and offices with good ventilation have reduced virus transmission. CO2 can be a useful measurement in detecting this, and reducing the risk of virus transmission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/smartairfilters.com\/en\/blog\/co2-monitors-for-covid-19-prevention-ventilation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how can CO2 monitors be used to measure ventilation and protect against viruses&nbsp;\u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n<div class='pauple-helpie-module article-voting'><span class='label'>Was this article useful?<\/span><span data-post-id='5971' data-user-id='0' class='icon-tray'><span  data-vote='thumbs up outline' class=' voting-icon thumbs up outline '><i data-content='thumbs up outline' class='thumbs up outline outline icon' aria-hidden='true'><\/i><count>0<\/count><\/span><span  data-vote='thumbs down outline' class=' voting-icon thumbs down outline '><i data-content='thumbs down outline' class='thumbs down outline outline icon' aria-hidden='true'><\/i><count>0<\/count><\/span><\/span><\/div><div style='clear:both;'><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Knowledge Base &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;Air Quality Monitors &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;How Can I Tell If My Home or Office Has Good Ventilation?
