How this automation works

Get instant alerts when radon levels in your home or office rise above your chosen safety threshold. This Applet runs when your Airthings device detects that the radon level exceeds the limit you set and sends you an SMS message via your Android device. It’s perfect for ensuring indoor air safety and staying informed about changing radon conditions in real time. Customize the message to fit your tone.
