A smarter way to know what you breathe.

Knowing your air takes more than an AQI. It takes What's actually in your air — the particles, vapors, and microbes present, identified by name rather than lumped into one number. and Where each finding comes from and how much of it you've been breathing, for how long — the source and the dose..

Lution is a system that combines sensors, sampling, and accredited laboratory analysis — reading your air continuously, and from a sample that has seen over a million times more air than any spot test.

01 — The Sensors

Track

Installed in your home, Lution's powerful sensors breathe the same air you're breathing, in real time. They track how conditions change throughout the day, capturing patterns and shifts that one-off tests miss...

02 — Your Filters

Capture

Lution uses your home's own filters to sample what's moving through your air. Your filters serve as both filtration and sampling tools, capturing airborne material as it moves through your system — roughly 55 to 90 million cubic feet of air over 90 days.¹ Using the compact hand vacuum provided, you collect a sample on your own time and send it to an accredited partner laboratory for analysis.

The Lution lab analysis

03 — The Lab

Analyze

Accredited partner laboratories run a battery of tests on your sample — gene-targeted sequencing that identifies mold and bacteria to the species, and microscopy for the materials that make up the rest of your dust.

04 — Your Lution Level

Guide

The Lution app brings everything together. It translates sensor data and lab findings into a clear, ongoing picture of your air, right in your pocket. When something changes, you know what's happening—and what to do next. The app is also your home base for your Lution membership, bringing together filter deliveries, support, and everything else that keeps your system running smoothly.

Spore trap: 5 L/min × 5–10 min = 25–50 L. Residential HVAC: 35,000–55,000 L/min, 90 days at 35% runtime = 1.6–2.5 billion liters (55–90 million ft³). Ratio: 32–100 million. ↩

Air monitors count. Lution explains.

A used HVAC air filter

Time to change your filter.

Your HVAC filter is no longer working efficiently and is due for a change.

An industrial smokestack against the sky

Close & seal your windows.

Outdoor particle levels are rising with the wind from the east. Close the windows and run filtration until it passes.

Fine airborne moisture wisps

Moisture levels are high.

Damp air favors mold growth. Try running the AC or a dehumidifier.

A vacuum cleaner

Check your vacuum filter.

Check that your vacuum uses a HEPA filter, so it doesn't return fine particles to the air.

A glass of water

Time to deep clean the dishwasher.

Your latest lab results found bacteria that favor standing water. Dishwasher and washing-machine seals are common sources — a deep clean helps.

A rising column of smoke

Open your windows.

Combustion particles are high — candles or a fireplace are the usual sources. Open a window for a while, the air outside is better.

A frying pan on the stove

Turn on your vent hood.

Particles are rising the way they do when someone's cooking. Try the vent hood or a fan.
