FAVOURITES & SCHEDULING SUMMARY

A favourite is a short cut which allows the user to press a single button to simultaneously make multiple changes to the zones status, set points, mode, fan speed

Once a favourite has been created it can then be scheduled to start and stop at specific times during a 7 day week

To configure a schedule it is necessary to first create a Favourite with the Mode, Fan Speed and zone settings that you want to run when the schedule is active

Once the favourite has been created and tested it can then be scheduled to start and / or stop at the required time

Please note if schedules overlap the following will occur in the example below:

  • Schedule A will start at 0:800 and will stop before its scheduled time at 08:45 as it has been overridden by Schedule B

  • Schedule B will start at 0:845 and will stop before its scheduled time at 09:15 as it has been overridden by Schedule C

  • Schedule C start and stop at its required schedule times of 09:15 - 10:40

AIR QUALITY SUMMARY

Air quality is measured by the below metrics

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) - Wikipedia Article

Relative Humidity (RH %) - Wikipedia Article

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC ppb) - Wikipedia Article

Carbon Dioxide (CO2 ppm) - Wikipedia Article

INDOOR AIR QUALITY

For humans indoor RH below 35% feels uncomfortably dry; above 65% feels uncomfortably humid

The ideal range being between 50% to 60%

For ease of understanding the iZone summarise the overall IAQ from the worst reading of the VOC and CO2 sensors. The categories and levels are as follows:

RATING / PPB

VOC

Great

0-60 ppb

VOC levels are normal

Good

61-200 ppb

VOC levels are moderate. Opening windows, doors or turn on ventilation fans to increase the outdoor air exchange will help to reduce the VOC levels

Fair

201-2030 ppb

 VOC levels are elevated. Opening windows, doors or turn on ventilation fans to increase the outdoor air exchange will help to reduce the VOC levels

Poor

above 2030 ppb

VOC levels are high. The most important sources of VOCs include cigarette smoke, vehicle related emissions, building renovations, solvents, house hold cleaning products and pesticides. It is strongly recommended that windows, doors are opened or ventilation fans are started to increase the outdoor air exchange to reduce the VOC levels

RATING / PPM

CO2

Great

200-600 ppm

Co2 levels are low and healthy

Good

601-900 ppm

Co2 levels are acceptable

Fair

901-1400 ppm

Co2 levels are high and may cause drowsiness acceptable. Opening windows, doors or turn on ventilation fans to increase the outdoor air exchange will help to reduce the Co2 levels

Poor

above 1400 ppm

Co2 levels are excessive and extended exposure to these levels may cause health issues. Opening windows, doors or turn on ventilation fans to increase the outdoor air exchange will help to reduce the Co2 levels

OUTDOOR AIR QUALITY

Each of the states and territories of Australia is responsible for monitoring air quality and publishing data in accordance with the national NEPM standards

Each state and territory publishes air quality data for individual monitoring locations, and most states and territories publish air quality indexes for each monitoring location

Across Australia, a consistent approach is taken with air quality indexes, using a simple linear scale where 100 represents the maximum concentration standard for each pollutant, as set by the NEPM

These maximum concentration standards are:

Pollutant

Averaging period

Maximum concentration standard

Carbon monoxide

8 hours          

9ppm

Nitrogen dioxide

1 hour

0.12ppm

 

Ozone

 

1 hour

0.10ppm

4 hours

0.08ppm

 

Sulphur dioxide

 

 

1 hour

0.20ppm

1 day

0.08ppm

1 year

0.02ppm

Lead

1 year

0.50 μg/m3

 

PM 10

 

1 day

50 μg/m3

1 year

25 μg/m3

 

PM 2.5

 

1 day

25 μg/m3

1 year

8 μg/m3

The air quality index (AQI) for an individual location is simply the highest of the air quality index values for each pollutant being monitored at that location

 AQI bands, with health advice for each:

AQI

Description

Health advice

0–33

Very Good

Enjoy activities

34–66

Good

Enjoy activities

67–99

Fair

People unusually sensitive to air pollution: Plan strenuous outdoor activities when air quality is better

100–149

Poor

Sensitive Groups: Cut back or reschedule strenuous outdoor activities

150–200

Very Poor

Sensitive groups: Avoid strenuous outdoor activities. Everyone: Cut back or reschedule strenuous outdoor activities

200+

Hazardous

Sensitive groups: Avoid all outdoor physical activities. Everyone: Significantly cut back on outdoor physical activities
