Hi,
I develop a connected electric radiator and I would like to install an IAQ sensor in this radiator to be able to give information on the air quality to the user.
So I bought a BME680 to do some testing. In my living room, I get an approximate constant value of 500 ppm, which is a good level of eCO2. Then, I simulated heating the radiator using a hair dryer, the measured eCO2 exploded around 2000 ppm, which is a bad CO2 level. You can see in the attached picture the stability of the eCO2 measured then the beginning and the end of the heating with the hair dryer.
So I wanted to know if the radiator heat could have an impact on the sensor or if it was just my hair dryer ? If it comes from external heat, do you think it possible to install an IAQ sensor in a radiator ?
Thank you very much for your time,
Best regards,
Steven
