Naphthalene is one of the invisible dangers in the air – it can come from old building materials, smoke, or exhaust fumes and can harm health. The air-⁠Q's VOC sensor can detect early signs of possible exposure. This way, you know in good time whether action is needed, and you always keep an eye on the quality of your room air.
