Apollo Automation AIR-1
Bottom line
Worth consideringCheck the installed sensor configuration before comparing readings or ordering: CO2 and gas-sensing options differ between configurations. Follow Apollo’s positioning and calibration guidance. Use readings to observe indoor trends, with the limitations of each sensor in mind.

About
Apollo AIR-1 is an ESPHome air-quality monitor for Home Assistant. It reports environmental measurements; it is not an mmWave room-occupancy sensor.
Compatibility and limitations
Check the installed sensor configuration before comparing readings or ordering: CO2 and gas-sensing options differ between configurations. Follow Apollo’s positioning and calibration guidance. Use readings to observe indoor trends, with the limitations of each sensor in mind. We have not measured its accuracy, and it should not replace certified smoke or carbon-monoxide alarms.
