Why is my AirTouch Beam showing the wrong temperature or humidity?

Last updated 26 October 2026

Inaccurate temperature or humidity readings on AirTouch Beam are usually caused by outdated firmware, a recent restart, or placement near heat or sunlight. Use the checklist below to troubleshoot and improve measurement reliability.

Possible Causes and Recommended Solutions

1. Check for Firmware Updates

  • An outdated firmware version may affect the performance of the temperature and humidity sensors.

  • Solution: Go to Settings > Devices > Software Update and ensure your AirTouch Beam is running the latest firmware.

2. Refresh the Home Screen

  • Sometimes, the app may not immediately display the most recent sensor data.

  • Solution: Pull down or refresh the Home screen in the app to update the displayed values.

3. Allow Time After Reset or Restart

  • After a reset or power cycle, the device may require some time to recalibrate the sensors.

  • Solution: Wait up to 1 hour for temperature and humidity values to stabilise after a device reboot or factory reset.

4. Review the Installation Environment

  • Environmental factors can interfere with sensor readings, such as:

    • Direct sunlight

    • Proximity to heat sources (e.g., ovens, stoves, or heaters)

    • Nearby electronics or appliances that emit heat

    • Poor airflow or confined spaces

  • Solution: Ensure your AirTouch Beam is installed in a well-ventilated area, out of direct sunlight, and away from heat-emitting appliances.
