After the 5yr warranty? Or did you not register it (which means you only get 1yr)?
Does not include PM sensor for particulates in the air (dust smoke etc)
This model has a five year warranty. Are you stating that it stopped working after five years?

How is this a "very low quality product"?

I have the Airthings Corentium and find it to be a very reliable radon monitor for home use.

I have a radon mitigation system in the basement. Should I install it there to monitor and be sure that the levels are staying down and the mitigation system is working? Any feedback from personal experience?

I also have a radon mitigation system. You would put this air quality detector (or other radon detector) in the main level of of your home, rotating rooms every few days. You should establish a long term reading of 30 days or more. You should be looking for consistent levels well below 4.0 and ideally less than 1.0.

You could always reset the unit and put it in your basement to detect levels down there but your main level should be the primary focus.

Looks like a good deal - I have one of their non-smart radon detectors that works well, but requires me to manually monitor. I bought a wave and wasn't super happy with having you pair over Bluetooth. I ended up with some of the Amazon air quality monitors. I think this looks like a good deal if you want radon + others. I can't determine if it has Wi-Fi or just Bluetooth, I'd only get if it was Wi-Fi, syncing was very hit or miss from me on Bluetooth in the other device.

It may depend on the house, but we had someone who does testing come out and retest after the mitigation and put our Airthings next to it. The radon exhaust is at the back right corner of our house, so they put the detectors in the front left room, as far away as possible (first floor, no basement, just a crawl space). No one ever suggested moving it. It varies WAY more than I would expect from day to day, but our reading over several years now is 0.32, down from between 4 and 7 depending on the time of year.

If I'm recalling correctly, I think the Airthings was something 0.05 points lower than the professional detector, so call it 0.37. Still pretty accurate in my book.

Sounds like your mitigation system is working. . Radon does vary over different conditions. It is usually higher in the winter versus the summer months. I also seem to get a higher reading when there is rain versus a dry, sunny day suggesting barometric pressure might affect the levels. I was between 4.0 and 7.0 without mitigation, and now average about .35. This winter, in the Raleigh-Durham area, it has varied from day-to-day from about .2 to 1.0 and has averaged about .45.

Ironically, Airthings doesn't work with Smartthings.
