We are going to show you a series of smart sensors that you can use in your daily life at home. Especially in times like winter they can come in handy. The goal is to help you improve health, as well as increase well-being. In cold times, it is more common for air quality to be worse, in addition to having difficulties maintaining a good temperature and humidity.
Home automation offers a wide range of options in this regard. We are going to show you how you can use smart sensors to improve health and well-being at home. Mainly, the objective will be to control air quality, temperature and also reduce the cold that may enter from outside in winter.
Useful sensors
These sensors will be interesting for you to place in places in your home where you need to enhance air quality or have greater control over temperature and humidity. In this way, you can reduce the risk of health or well-being problems in winter, as it is colder and your doors and windows are more closed.
Air quality meter
Something very useful that you can install at home are air quality meters. If you are going to keep your home closed for a long time, which is common in winter, it is important that you check the quality of the air you are breathing from time to time. They are simple to use, economical devices that will help prevent problems.
We leave you a couple of smart air quality meters that you can use. You will be able to link them to Alexa, for example, and have greater control from anywhere.
Temperature and humidity sensor
Of course, in winter it is also important to control the temperature and humidity at home well. This will help you better manage when and how to turn on the heating or radiators you need to use. Therefore, having smart temperature and humidity sensors is a good option.
Typically, these sensors come in a pack. That is, the same device will inform you of the temperature in the place where you put it, as well as the humidity. You will be able to see graphs, see how much it drops at night, etc.
Door and window open sensor
This can also be good for your home, especially in cold weather. They are sensors that will alert when a door or window is open. It will help you avoid the home from cooling down and even that will come in handy so you can save on your electricity bill. It is important that you place them correctly, in places where you need to have greater control.
They are very simple devices. Basically, they are made up of two parts that will be separated between the door and the frame. When the door or window is opened, they will move further apart and that is when they will alert you that it has been opened. That alert can reach you by message on your cell phone, for example.
In short, these are some smart sensor options that you can install in your home. This way, you can have greater control, especially in the winter months, when the temperature may be lower. Measuring air quality is an important factor.
