Good indoor climate with smart CO2 meters and subsidies
Contribute efficiently and smoothly to reducing CO2 emissions. And improve the indoor climate in buildings such as schools. Without too much expense. Does that seem like an impossible task? Not with the right equipment, a good management system and government subsidies. The Sqippa partners pool their knowledge. And explain the importance of and possibilities for a good indoor climate.
Five reasons for a good indoor climate
We work and study indoors all day. Attention to a good indoor climate is therefore logical. And certainly not a superfluous luxury.
And a good indoor climate is no longer just about safety. There are five important reasons to ensure a good indoor climate:
1. Safety and health
2. Comfort
3. Productivity
4. Sustainability
5. Cost
Three values are important for a good indoor climate: temperature, humidity and CO2 levels.
If these three values are right, the climate in a building is not only healthy and safe, but also pleasant to work or study in. And this boosts productivity and creativity.
Efficient management of the indoor climate and especially the temperature can reduce energy consumption by 10% to 30%. Good for the environment and for your finances.
Measuring and managing go hand in hand with a good CO2 meter and Sqippa
A good CO2 meter measures temperature, humidity and CO2 levels. Continuous monitoring of these three key values is the basis for efficiently controlling HVAC systems. Thus, these heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems are activated only when needed.
The name CO2 meter actually does the measuring device a disservice, as it measures more than just the CO2 level. Nevertheless, this is the common name for these 'indoor climate controllers'.
An example of a quality meter is Talkpool's OY1210 LoRaWAN CO2 meter from Sweden.
Equipped with a sensor, these CO2 meters control indoor climate particularly efficiently. They communicate wirelessly with the management platform via LoraWAN. This meter is available in the Netherlands through distributor Delmation.
Smart CO2 meters: efficient and safe
Smart CO2 meters transmit measured values very frequently, e.g. every 20 minutes. They report any exceeding of limit values immediately, with a maximum delay of one minute. This makes these meters particularly efficient and safe. However, all this information must then be received, analysed and used. This is what Sqippa does.Sqippa Online is an IoT platform for wirelessly monitoring sensors and devices in a building. And not just for CO2 meters. Management of emergency lighting and lifts, for example, also fit into Sqippa online. This is possible because Sqippa is an open IoT platform. Because of its open nature, Sqippa provides owners and managers with an overall picture of how a building is functioning. Suppliers and installers also have direct insight into maintenance moments and malfunctions. The right data are the basis for taking the right measures. Building management via Sqippa improves safety, increases efficiency and is sustainable. Want to know more about LoraWAN CO2 meters and Sqippa? Then get in touch with us.
Government subsidies underline the importance of a good indoor climate
The government has several subsidies available for improving the indoor climate in school buildings, among others. This underlines the importance of a good indoor climate.
The subsidies can be used, for instance, for more air freshening capacity and the installation of carbon dioxide meters. Energy registration, monitoring and reporting are also encouraged.

Sqippa helps you one step further
A good indoor climate is important for people and the environment. Unfortunately, in many buildings, including school buildings, the air quality is insufficient. This has to improve! That is why the government not only regulates the indoor climate. It also provides subsidies to improve it. By supporting with these subsidies, and choosing the right equipment and solutions, healthy and smart buildings are feasible. This is what we are working on in the Sqippa community. The community of building owners, managers, installers and suppliers is happy to help you with information, ideas and solutions.
