Do you know if your house is healthy? New Nordic Engineering creates the technology to collect information about your building – everything from the carbon dioxide level to how many people are in it at any given time. And they can keep you updated on when your kids are home from school, when you should open a window to air out a certain room or connect you with your baby to hear them crying from a mile away.

If you have ever felt a bit tired slumming it on your couch or at the office, you are certainly not the only one. But there could be a simple explanation and solution to it. CEO of New Nordic Engineering, Stig Dahl-Hansen, explains: “We test our sensors at an office workplace, where the employees are tired and unhappy with the indoor climate. After a few days of monitoring the indoor climate of the office, it is easy to see where the problem is: too much CO2 in the air. New habits for opening the windows and a few other adjustments and the problem is solved,” explains Dahl-Hansen, who himself has many sensors in his own house.
Using wireless sensors and a device to collect the data, New Nordic Engineering can cross analyse the collected data from all kinds of sensors you might have in your building and update or alert you if there is something you should be aware of. “We make sensors to collect data for different needs, so, for instance, you can save money by knowing if you’re using too much energy,” says the CEO. Whether you are a private person or a big corporation, New Nordic Engineering can help you get to know your building’s health, prevent and solve problems and even optimise your health within your own walls.
