It detects even the smallest change in a room’s air quality, identifying the threat and enabling you to take control of the air you breathe.

The EPA has studied this very question over the past decade or so. Their findings are not only surprising, but point to the need for each home and business to address the problem. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) are seeping out of commonly used materials, contaminating the air we spend the majority of our time breathing. The building blocks of our everyday environments, i.e. carpets, furniture, paints, cleaning products, caulks and (ironically) air fresheners to name a few, are the culprits. Natural human metabolism (respiration and perspiration) is another source. Without enough fresh air to dilute these contaminants, a build-up of toxic compounds results, bringing a variety of health problems with it; headaches, nausea, eye nose and throat irritation, damage to the central nervous system, and in severe cases, cancer. The Indoor Air Monitor is your best first defense against these unseen VOC’s. 
good, yellow if it’s fair and red if you need to ventilate the room immediately. The graph tracks variances in VOC levels over time changing colors in the same manner. Reasonably priced, portable, and simple to use, the Air Quality Monitors are the size of a thumb drive. They plug into a USB port in your computer. The air quality is indicated by illuminated LED lights:
