Airthings Launches Space Radon: A new continuous radon monitor

Designed to give users effortless, long-term control over indoor radon levels and air quality.

OSLO, NORWAY - (September 21, 2026) – Airthings, the leader in indoor air quality monitoring, has announced the upcoming launch of the newest device to join the Airthings for Business portfolio: Space Radon. The device provides highly accurate, continuous radon monitoring alongside core air quality sensors, featuring an exceptional battery life of 8 years. “Radon monitoring isn't optional in many workplaces around the world. Our latest generation makes compliance and employee protection easier than ever,” said Joakim Lindh, Managing Director at Airthings for Business.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter buildings from the ground and accumulate indoors. As the second leading cause of lung cancer worldwide and the leading cause among non-smokers, it is recognized as one of the most significant indoor environmental health risks. Because radon is invisible, odorless, and levels can vary significantly throughout the year, particularly during radon season (October to April), continuous monitoring is essential for accurately assessing exposure. With people spending approximately 90% of their time indoors, understanding and managing radon exposure is critical to maintaining healthy indoor environments.

To help organizations address this challenge, Space Radon combines highly accurate, continuous radon monitoring with an industry-leading battery life of 8 years. The device uses the same trusted alpha spectrometry sensor technology relied on by radon professionals, measuring the energy of individual alpha particles to accurately distinguish radon from background radiation. This highly power-efficient approach enables continuous monitoring while minimizing maintenance requirements, allowing building and facility managers to deploy an easy-install device that monitors long-term risks without the hassle of frequent maintenance or battery changes.

In addition to radon, the device tracks five other key air quality factors: carbon dioxide (CO₂), humidity, temperature, pressure, and light. It also provides smart, cloud-based insights—such as virtual sensors for Occupancy, Virus Risk, Ventilation Rate, and Mold Risk.

Space Radon connects seamlessly to the existing Airthings for Business solution. The device samples data continuously and sends it securely to the cloud via the Airthings Space Hub using SmartLink technology. This ensures that users get live updates, over-the-air firmware updates, and full dashboard analytics. With Space Radon, organizations can easily monitor, take action, and measure the impact of those actions over time.

Key Features:

• Up to 8 years of battery life: Powered by 6x AA Lithium batteries to minimize maintenance.
• 6 Sensors in one: Measures radon, CO₂, humidity, temperature, pressure, and light.
• Smart insights: Built-in virtual sensors for mold risk, ventilation rate, occupancy, and virus risk.
• Clear screen: Features an ultra-low-power display for quick on-site checks. The display is fully customizable, allowing users to show all readings, selected information, or turn the display off completely.
• Easy, quick and affordable, wire-free setup: Can be mounted on walls or placed on tables using the included double-sided tape or security mount.
