Airthings Wave Plus vs Aranet Radon Plus

Full Smart Air Quality Monitors comparison in 2026

Updated September 2026
Data from Amazon and official Airthings and Aranet sites.
2026 verdict
Both measure radon, but the Aranet Radon Plus is the better radon monitor overall, winning on price, owner feedback, an IP20 rating, a rated 7 years of battery life against 1.5 years, and an E-Ink screen the Airthings Wave Plus does not have. The Airthings covers far more ground, adding CO2 and VOC sensing, SmartLink connectivity, Alexa and Google Home support and a 5-year warranty against 2. Both run on two AA cells, use Bluetooth and work with Home Assistant. Pick the Aranet Radon Plus for a focused radon reading you can glance at, and the Airthings Wave Plus for a multi-sensor view of the air.
