    Smog \u2013 what is it?<\/h2>\n

    The term smog is derived from the combination of the words smoke and fog. Although it creates a kind of layer that protects us against harmful UV radiation, it can be extremely dangerous for health.<\/p>\n

    Some people associate smog only with plants and industrial areas, however, today it\u2019s present everywhere, especially during winter and autumn months when the car traffic increases drastically, and we use various materials to heat our homes.<\/p>\n

    Air pollution impact on health \u2013 why air quality sensors are important?<\/h2>\n

    As mentioned above, smog can have a tremendous impact on our health, as it contributes to the development of serious conditions such as:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • respiratory and circulatory problems,<\/li>\n
    • asthma,<\/li>\n
    • allergies,<\/li>\n
    • nausea,<\/li>\n
    • difficulties with concentration,<\/li>\n
    • heart attacks,<\/li>\n
    • miscarriages,<\/li>\n
    • problems with concentration,<\/li>\n
    • allergies,<\/li>\n
    • nausea,<\/li>\n
    • cancer,<\/li>\n
    • or even death.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Therefore, it\u2019s worth using special sensors<\/span> that allow us to make informed decisions and minimise our exposure to harmful substances.<\/p>\n

      Types of air pollution sensors offered by Airatom smart solution<\/h2>\n

      Airatom smart solution offers three types of <\/span>air pollution sensors that will help you monitor selected air parameters:<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Airatom smart solution PM<\/span> \u2013 it measures PM 1, PM 2.5, PM 10 parameters as well as temperature, humidity, and pressure.<\/li>\n
      2. Airatom smart solution PM+GAS type 1<\/span> \u2013 it measures PM 1, PM 2.5, PM 10, NO2, O3, pressure, humidity, and temperature.<\/li>\n
      3. Airatom smart solution PM+GAS type 2<\/span> \u2013 it measures PM 1, PM 2.5, PM 10, SO2, CO, humidity, pressure, and temperature.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        As you can see, available variants differ in terms of monitored parameters, therefore, to make the right decision, analyse your surrounding, and decide if given functionalities come in handy in your case.<\/p>\n

        The takeaway<\/h3>\n

        Smog can be extremely dangerous for health. For this reason, it\u2019s worth using available solutions such as air quality app, maps, and sensors to analyse the situation, and avoid outdoor activities when the air quality isn\u2019t satisfactory.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
