Allergies & dust sensitivity
Dust mites, pollen, pet dander and chemical irritants all have fingerprints. Envora reads them so you can manage the triggers, not just the symptoms.
The 40–50% RH sweet spot.
Indoor allergies are rarely one cause. They are a layered environment: house dust mites that thrive between 50–70% humidity, pollen that enters on clothing and draughts, pet dander that stays airborne in under-ventilated rooms, and cleaning or candle VOCs that irritate already sensitive airways.
Each has a measurable signal. Together they produce a fused, drift-compensated IAQ score that tells you when the room is friendly to you — and when it is not.
You would suspect this when any of these feel familiar.
- Morning sneezing that eases once you leave the house
- Asthma flare at night or on waking
- Itchy eyes after cleaning or vacuuming
- Worse symptoms in humid rooms or in late summer
- Skin flare-ups in dry, heated rooms
Quietly watching the exact signals.
Humidity maps directly to dust-mite viability. Envora keeps bedrooms and living rooms in the 40–50% sweet spot — too dry for mites, too humid for static.
PM1 / PM2.5 / PM10 capture pollen loads, pet dander and the particulate tail of cleaning aerosols.
The BME690 VOC channel picks up chemical irritants — fragranced candles, bleach, sprays — that tip sensitive airways.

Practical steps, not panic.
- 1 Target 40–50% RH year-round in bedrooms and living rooms.
- 2 On high-pollen days, keep windows closed; run a HEPA purifier instead.
- 3 Wash bedding weekly at 60 °C and vacuum with a sealed HEPA vacuum.
- 4 Switch to fragrance-free cleaners; let any wet-clean dry with ventilation.
- 5 Keep pets out of the bedroom — or at least off the bed — and invest in allergen-resistant covers.
