How high is your home CO2?

[VJV]

Hi, lets hear how high the CO2 is in your home and how do you manage it to keep your pH in your tank stable and high


My home CO2 in winter is about 600ppm during the day but rises to 2.000ppm in the morning after a full night of closed windows and 6 people sleeping. My pH at night drops 0,4.

Lets hear about your experiences.

How do you keep your levels so "low" during the night? Do you have some kind of ERV installed or keep some windows open at night?

My apt insulation sucks?! Don’t know, my AC does let in some fresh air which can be adjusted and heated or cooled. Since I got the awair I’ve become much more dilligent about opening the windows at least while awake. I still use the CO2 scrubber which keeps ph above 8.

Btw don’t think 7.5 is too low, IME at least I never noticed any issues.
