The **air-Q** {% term integration %} allows integrating the sensors, provided by your [air-Q](https://www.air-q.com/) device, into Home Assistant.

{% include integrations/config_flow.md %}

During the configuration, the user is prompted for the IP address of the {% term device %} or the first 5 characters of the serial number, as well as the device password.

For this integration to communicate with the device, both must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

After the setup, separate {% term entities %} will be created for each of the {% term sensors %}, found in your {% term device %}.

## Sensors

Currently, the integration supports the following sensors:

PM1, PM25, and PM10 correspond to concentrations of particulates with diameter less than 1µm, 2.5µm, and 10µm respectively

Virus Index uses CO2 as a proxy for potential aerosol load and can be seen as an indicator of ventilation sufficiency (0 %: insufficient ventilation, 100 %: all fine).

Virtual sensors "Relative Pressure" and "Virus Index" are introduced in firmware v1.80.0 but deactivated by default. You can activate them in the air-Q mobile application under "Advanced settings".
