Backyard Monitoring Interest Form

Monitor the safety of the air and water in your back yard!

Purple Air outdoor devices monitor particulate matter and volatile organic compounds (VOCs), providing readings every ten minutes shown on an openly-accessible web-based map. These devices are permanently mounted on the side of a building, requiring a power souce and continuous wifi connection. These devices send text messages to registered hosts when air quality reaches risk-level.

Our backyard monitoring kits (affectionately dubbed "hound dog kits") include a combustible gas detector, water quality testing kit, and a form for logging, mapping, and interpreting results from your back yard streams or wells. Monitoring kits will be assigned to regions or counties and passed from neighbor to neighbor after a brief training.
