Why is Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) important?
"The health impacts of poor outdoor air quality are well known – polluted air has been linked to respiratory tract infections, lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). A two-year study by medical journal The Lancet found that 6.5 million people die prematurely every year as a result of poor air quality."

Indoor Air Quality is often 2 to 5 times worse¹ than it is outside. Plus, people generally spend more time indoors, especially the very young and the elderly, who are more susceptible to indoor air pollution.

The first step in improving your Indoor Air Quality is by measuring (monitoring) it. Having a reference of what your Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is, and then making changes to improve it, allows you to see first hand if the changes applied are having any effect.
WiCub 2 is the cute little smart device for this.

Improve your wellbeing by improving your indoor air quality
The sensor within WiCub 2 can detect a broad range of gases to measure air quality for personal well being. Gases that can be detected include Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) from paints (such as formaldehyde), lacquers, paint strippers, cleaning supplies, furnishings, office equipment, glues, adhesives and alcohol.

WiCub 2 at home...
I always thought the air in my home was clean; it seemed clean as there were no smells.
And then one day I brought WiCub 2 home and he was not a happy chappy...
![]()
I could not understand why, when the air seemed just fine; but obviously WiCub 2 was sensing much more than what my nose could.
Then I opened some windows...
![]()
Half an hour later WiCub 2 was much happier.
![]()
Even though there was no smell inside the home, there was a build of VOCs that I could not detect that was easily resolved simply by ventilating.
WiCub 2 is so easy to use that even my 7 year old tells me if WiCub 2 is not happy.
The beauty about WiCub 2 is that it is constantly monitoring my home and sends out a daily email report. Here's one for my bedroom:

Using the data from WiCub 2, I can now make informed decisions that will improve not only mine but also my family's well being.
I hope you will invest in your health and live healthy.

Third Party Integrations
If you'd like WiCub 2 to send data to your own server, then you can easily do this by specifying your own custom endpoint URL during setup.
Data is sent in JSON format that can easily be parsed by your web service.
Also available is an option to use a third party web platform called IoTpool (separate charges may apply)
