The MiCS-4514 gas sensor has increased in price, which has caused the full AIR-1 to increase in price. They are difficult to source, and stock will be intermittent/unknown.

The Apollo AIR-1 is the most compact, feature-rich, affordable, and expandable air sensor for Home Assistant. Utilizing WiFi and ESPHome, it is locally controlled with no subscription or cloud required.

Powered via USB-C and a standard wall adapter, the device connects over Wi-Fi to Home Assistant, and also integrates with platforms like Homey, Hubitat, HomeSeer, and more.

We proudly offer the software and CAD drawings to the community, encouraging all to modify and improve upon them. For more information, visit our GitHub or wiki. We're eager to see the innovative adaptations you come up with. Join ourĀ Discord community to share your unique remakes, or to engage in discussions about future products.

Reviews

SCD40 CO2 Sensor:
MiCS-4514 Gas Sensor:

The SEN55 particulate sensor is great for telling you about dust, pollen, and other particles in your air. Want to know if you should turn in your HVAC fan to filter your home air? Doing wood working in the garage? This will let you know when you might need to turn on a filter.

The optional CO2 sensor is very eye opening. Many people do not know the air in their office or bedroom reaches CO2 levels that have an affect on you. From poor sleep at night, drowsyness in the office, and brain fog can all be caused by high CO2. This sensor will let you know if your levels are getting too high and you need to turn on the air circulation or open a window.

The RGB leds are great for notifications. Trash night? Turn the LED green. Mail in the mailbox? Turn the LED blue. Air quality approaching bad levels? Turn red.

Product Details

The AIR-1Ā measures only 61mm x 61mm x 30mm and has an aesthetic design to blend in.Ā 

So what does the AIR-1 do?

PM1, PM2.5, PM4, PM10, VOC, NOx, Temperature, Humidity (SEN55)

**There is a temperature offset needed due to heat buildup from the ESP32-C3. We are still evaluating it, but it is between 2 and 6 degrees C. However, if using the Sleep function, then the temperature offsets needed will be much lower for your sensors as the microcontroller will not put off as much heat.

Many air quality measurements from a very reputableĀ manufacturer. The sensor has a 10-year lifespan at continuous use (Most PM sensors only have 3 years) meaning you can have very short update intervals:

  • Monitor 3d printers
  • Turn your air purifier on when air quality becomes unhealthy
  • Detect new paint fumes

CO (Carbon Monoxide), C2H5OH (Ethanol), H2, NO2, NH3 (Ammonia), CH4 (Methane) (MiCS-4514 From DFRobot) - Optional

** Our beta test group has noticed the methane reading will spike when exposed to high amounts of other gasses. We all believe this is manageable for the vast amount of automations still but wanted to let you know. It is much more a exists/doesn't exist type of gas monitoring vs the actual PPM readout, it will read 0ppm in normal air.

(This device does not meet the requirements for gasĀ safety monitoring per the NBIC, NFPA, or IFC)

Monitor the individual gas percentages in your air with this optional add-on.

CO2 (SCD40) - Optional

This optional add-on brings a CO2 sensor to the package, which comes pre-calibrated and ready to use. (This device does not meet the requirements for CO2 safety monitoring per the NBIC, NFPA, or IFC)

  • Get alerts to open a window or automate your HVAC fan to run when CO2 levels are high.

Bluetooth Tracker(ESP32-C3-Mini) - YAML Config Required

Track Bluetooth devices in your house, letting you know which devices are closest to the sensor. You will need to know the MAC of the Bluetooth devices you want to track.

  • Find your phone if you left it in the office or the bedroom.
  • Know who just walked into the room.
  • Track a beacon attached to your dog's collar.

RGB Pixels

Uses color-coded alerts for various home scenarios.

  • Flash red if the air quality is unhealthy.
  • Flash green on trash night.
  • Flash blue when it's treat time for your pup.

Power And Sensor Expansion Connector

A connector that'll allow future sensors and power methods. A few expansion boards are in development currently but no set release date. Let us know what you'd like to see on the expansion slots.
