IoT sensors for business

A well-placed sensor with an alert to the right person can save a cold room full of stock, prevent a flood or catch an electricity bill before it spirals.

Cold room and fridge temperatures

In restaurants, hotels and food shops, a sensor in each cold room or fridge logs temperature continuously and alerts you if it goes out of range, including at night or on closing days. The history makes self-checks easier; for the requirements that apply to your business, always check current regulations.

CO2 and air quality

In offices, meeting rooms, classrooms or dining rooms, CO2 levels show whether ventilation is adequate. Readings can be displayed on screen, trigger alerts or switch ventilation on automatically.

Water leaks

Sensors under sinks, boilers, dishwashers or in guest bathrooms. With a solenoid valve, water is shut off automatically. In a hotel or apartment building, catching a leak early prevents damage to the floors below.

Energy use

Meters per circuit or device show where the energy goes: heating and cooling, kitchen, lighting or equipment left on out of hours. It's the first step to saving based on data.

Occupancy and openings

  • Meeting rooms in use or free.
  • Windows open with the heating on.
  • Storeroom doors or emergency exits left open.

What makes the difference

  • Alerts with an owner: each alert reaches the person who needs to act.
  • Monitoring the system itself: an alert if a sensor's battery runs out or it stops reporting.
  • One platform instead of several apps.
  • A separate network for IoT devices.

Frequently asked questions

Do sensors require building work?

Usually not: most are wireless and battery-powered. Only energy meters and solenoid valves need an electrician or plumber.
