Our Indoor Air Quality Tools

Optimize Your Indoor Air Quality with Our Open-Source Tools Discover Air Support Project’s free, open-source indoor air quality tools designed to help you monitor, model, and improve the air you breathe:

VELLO XL in a corner

Flat-pack, tool-free air purifier with whisper-quiet MERV-13 filtration, delivering 3× the clean-air rate of premium units at half the operating cost.

A screenshot of the Airawareness app displaying a classroom simulation for COVID-19 risk assessment. Details include: Duration: 2.1 hours. Height: 10 feet. Floor Area: 900 square feet. Transmission Risk: SARS-CoV-2 (Omicron) at 78.6%. Occupants: 23 people. Airflow: 1.0 air changes per hour (ACH), 7 eCFM per person. Purifier Unit: Levoit Core 600S, 410 CADR. The 3D classroom model shows airflow and red particles representing airborne risks, with additional metrics displayed for analysis.

Dynamic indoor air quality simulation and aerosol modeling so you can visualize particle spread, test ventilation strategies, and optimize airflow before implementation.
