Frequently asked questions

Do Kaiterra devices meet WELL technical requirements?

All of Kaiterra’s monitors are RESET-Certified Grade B devices and meet all the technical requirements for pursuing WELL Certification through continuous monitoring pathways.

Additionally, all Kaiterra indoor and outdoor air quality monitors are a part of the Works with Well Catalog, having demonstrated alignment with four strategies within the WELL Building Standard.

How often are sensor modules replaced, and are certificates of calibration provided?

WELL typically requires sensor recalibration every three years, which means that you will need to change your sensor modules every 36 months to meet the requirements. With an innovative modular design, Kaiterra IAQ monitors can be easily recalibrated by swapping out old sensors for new ones. New sensors come with a certificate of calibration, which you can submit to WELL online.

How many monitors do I need for WELL Certification?

The number of air quality monitors you need will, of course, depend on the specific requirements of your project. For projects to meet certification requirements, WELL monitor density guidelines are broken down into the following tiers, and must be met according to occupiable space:

Projects with occupiable space of < 3250 m²: 1 monitor per 325 m² [3,500 ft² ] in occupiable spaces (minimum 2)
Projects with occupiable space of 3250-25,000 m²: 1 monitor per 500 m² [5,400 ft²] in occupiable spaces (minimum 10)
Projects with occupiable space of > 25,000 m²: 1 monitor per 1000 m² [10,800 ft² ] in occupiable spaces (minimum 50)

Where should I place monitors?

Monitor placement should reflect the occupants’ experience of indoor air quality, typically mounted on a wall within the “breathing zone,” 3 to 6 feet above the floor.

It’s often recommended to install air quality monitors in open spaces and rooms that are regularly occupied. Monitors must be placed throughout the project and should be representative of all HVAC zones, building faces, and frequently used areas like lobbies, open and private office areas, and conference rooms.
