🍊 orange update 🍊
Update on the air quality testing with the miner running in the sound proofed unit. I used an electronic Air Quality testing device to do this.
In summary, after an hour of running the miner, it actually improved the air quality by a small margin. This is good, no nasty stuff coming out when the miner is running. Also, it increased the room temperature from 21.6 to 24.9 degrees Celsius after 1 hour of running (standard size living room with furniture).
Things done to control the testing environment.
1) Closed windows and doors so there is none or very little airflow coming into the testing room.
2) Let the testing device run for an hour in the room to get an accurate starting reading.
3) Placed the testing device around 1.5 meters away from the warm air vent. Above the unit and to the side of it where it would get some of warmer airflow.
4) No movement of anything in the room.
After 1 hour of letting the testing device settle in the room, I took 3 readings 2 minutes apart to get an accurate starting reading. (This is before the miner is switched on)
PM2.5 = 4.4, 4.1, 4.2 (Average = 4.233)
PM10 = 7.8, 6.8, 6.0 (Average = 6.867)
HCHO = 0.02, 0.02, 0.01 (Average = 0.0167)
TVOC = 0.02, 0.02, 0.02 (Average = 0.0200)
Temperature Degrees Celsius = 21.6, 21.6, 21.6 (Average = 21.60)
After switching the miner on, I took 3 readings every 20 minutes (20min, 40mins and then at 60mins).
PM2.5 = 3.4, 3.1, 3.2 (Average = 3.233)
PM10 = 5.8, 5.2, 5.6 (Average = 5.533)
HCHO = 0.01, 0.02, 0.01 (Average = 0.0133)
TVOC = 0.01, 0.02, 0.02 (Average = 0.0167)
Temperature Degrees Celsius = 22.9, 24.1, 24.9 (Average = 23.97)
I will do some more extended testing when the weather gets cooler.
