Welcome to the Habitat Health of your Energy Coach. What is it for?
Imagine a compass for your home. A simple and direct tool where one glance is enough to know if everything is okay.
Habitat Health allows you to monitor temperature, humidity, air quality, and CO2 levels in your living spaces.
You will get a detailed analysis, room by room, for a clear and structured view of your home's living conditions.
Creating Living Spaces and Associating Sensors
Once your Enki account is created, Habitat Health won't show anything for now. The first step? Create the rooms in your house within the app: living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom...
- Open the settings: Go to the "Home" tab, find the gear icon in the top right corner of the screen, and tap it to access settings.
- Create or delete a room: Tap "Home," then go to the "Rooms" tab.
Next, to associate a sensor with a room:
- Access the object's card: Go to the "Home" tab and tap on the card for your object.
- Open settings: Find the gear icon in the top right corner of the screen and tap it to access the object's settings.
- Associate or create a room: By tapping "Room," you will have the option to associate your object with an existing room or create a new room specifically for it.
Icons, Alerts, and Tips
For each of your rooms, you can view the data collected by your sensors in the form of cards.
On each sensor card, a color-coded icon helps you quickly identify areas that need checking or action.
- If the data from one of your sensors is considered ideal for your comfort, the icon is green.
- If not, an orange icon, and later a red icon, will indicate that the recorded data is deviating from the standards recommended by ADEME, signaling that action is needed.
The relevance of the alert also depends on the type of room where the sensor is located. Each space in your home has its own characteristics in terms of temperature and humidity for optimal comfort. For example:
- Bedrooms (Adults and children): A cooler temperature is often recommended to promote quality sleep. However, the recommended temperatures are slightly higher for children's rooms. An appropriate humidity level is crucial for restful sleep and to prevent the risk of allergies or respiratory diseases.
- Bathroom: A warmer environment is often preferred for relaxation. It's a space where humidity is typically higher, but it still requires monitoring to prevent mold development.
- Kitchen and Dining Room: These areas can naturally experience variations in humidity due to cooking and daily activities.
- Other Living Spaces: A moderate temperature is generally preferred for everyone's comfort.
If the temperature is too cold or too hot, or the humidity level is too low or too high, each situation will guide you to specific advice for effective action.
By tapping on a sensor card, you can see if the collected data requires specific intervention in the room and follow the provided recommendations.
Eligible Rooms
All rooms in your home are eligible for the Energy Coach's Habitat Health feature as long as a sensor is associated with them. However, some rooms do not allow alerts to be triggered.
This includes outdoor rooms, the "Facade" room, and the "Objects without room" category (To ensure complete monitoring, we’ve included objects without a designated room in the Habitat Health indicators).
In these cases, the cards within these rooms will not display color-coded icons or additional information.
Eligible Objects
To monitor the Health of your habitat, certain connected objects are used, namely sensors for:
- Temperature (including radiators with built-in temperature sensors)
- Humidity
- Air Quality
- CO2 Levels
