Placement Guidelines
For placement, we recommend the guidelines required for RESET Air certification, which
requires RESET Air Accredited Monitors to be installed according to the following
requirements:
A. Wall-mounted and centrally-located within monitored spaces.
B. Mounted in the breathing zone: between 3-6 feet (0.9-1.8 meters) from the ground
(after finished floor to underside of finished ceiling)*.
C. Located at least 16 feet (~5 meters) away from operable windows. In areas where this
is not possible, monitors must be located no closer to windows than half the width of
the space, measured linearly from the windows inwards.
D. Located at least 16 feet (~5 meters) away from air filters and diffusers. In areas where
this is not possible, monitors must be located closer to air returns than air diffusers.
