“Air quality monitoring question: Says it records air quality such as temperature and humidity and MOLD. How does it monitor mold? What sensor does it use to monitor mold? I have never heard of one before.”

• Doesn't look at mold per se. It only looks at humidity, temperature, and particles such as CO/Methane/etc. It doesn't give a precise breakdown either. I think its a bit gimmicky, but some people do take it seriously and have added air filtration systems to their home to get a better air quality score.

• It is not a mold, it detects humidity level.
