In classrooms or overcrowded auditoriums, the indoor climate is often poor. As a result, both pupils and teachers are less concentrated and less receptive.

Indoor climate sensors are an ideal, simple and cost-effective solution to optimize learning conditions and increase general well-being. Through continuous monitoring of temperature, humidity, CO2 content and visual alerts when limit values are reached, it is possible to react in good time to maintain the ideal indoor climate. Sensors not only help pupils, students and teachers to concentrate, but also help to optimize energy consumption.

Monitoring the room climate using sensors in real time

Citymonitor is launching a first pilot project together with Bergmannstraße secondary school in Dornbirn. To date, the data has been collected randomly over a period of two weeks for a classroom and then evaluated. The conclusions drawn from this provided little or no information about the optimization potential.

The aim of real-time monitoring of the room climate is to regularly adjust heating curves in order to achieve savings of up to 15% in heating costs. Another objective is to increase concentration and well-being through CO2 monitoring and active ventilation when critical values are exceeded.
