Radicair manufactures and sells Radon fans that regulate indoor radon levels by exchanging contaminated air with fresh outdoor air while maintaining neutral pressure and recovering heat energy.
Radon is a radioactive gas that enters buildings in Sweden through construction materials like pre-1975 aerated concrete (blue concrete), as well as from the ground and household water. Sweden has some of the highest indoor radon levels in the world, with many homes exceeding 200 Bq/m³. The Swedish Radiation Safety Authority estimates that radon in dwellings causes around 500 lung cancer cases per year in Sweden, most commonly among smokers. Radon is the second-most common cause of lung cancer after smoking, and long-term exposure to high levels of this odorless, invisible gas poses a serious health hazard. Approximately 15% of lung cancers in Sweden are induced by indoor radon in dwelling buildings.
In this project, we have investigated possibilities of integration with various Radon sensors available on the market. Two sensors from Airthings: Airthings Wave Plus and Airthings View Plus and one from EcoSense (Ecoqube).
The Airthings Wave Plus is a smart radon detector that provides real-time radon readings, temperature, humidity, CO2, and air pressure levels. The Airthings View Plus is a smart air quality monitor that provides real-time radon readings, temperature, humidity, CO2, and TVOC levels. Both devices are battery-powered and communicate over Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
Radon & air quality monitor with 7 sensors including radon, PM 2.5, CO2, and more |
Bluetooth-enabled, smart monitor with 6 sensors measuring radon, CO2, VOCs and more. |
This directory contains the information needed and code to link an ESP32 microcontroller to an Airthings Wave Plus device through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The Airthings Wave Plus tracks indoor air quality for Radon, CO2, VOCs, Humidity, Temperature, and Air Pressure. Using this code, you can wirelessly fetch Humidity, Temperature, and Short Term/Long Term Radon levels with the ESP32.
A small python script is also included to demonstrate how to fetch the sensor data from the Airthings Wave Plus device using a computer.
This directory contains instructions for how to interact with the exposed REST API. The Airthings View Plus tracks indoor air quality for Radon, CO2, VOCs, Humidity, and Temperature. Using this code, you can wirelessly fetch Humidity, Temperature, and Radon levels with the ESP32.

Using a patented radon detection technology, the EcoQube delivers industry leading radon counting sensitivity of 30 counts per hour per pCi/L. It uses Bluetooth for establishing the initial pairing, after that WiFi is used to send the measurements to the Ecosense server using an API. API is not open for consumer use, but there is a B2B offering. The Amazon auth service is used to authenticate all the requests and token is obtained using , which makes it quite difficult to catch the traffic inbetween. The data then is displayed in a companion mobile app and can be imported as a csv file.
