ThermoPro TP49W Digital Hygrometer | NDIS Room Comfort Monitor

Take the guesswork out of your home environment and maintain optimal living conditions with the ThermoPro TP49W Indoor Hygrometer. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this compact sensor is designed to support NDIS participants living with Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), Autism (ASD), Asthma, or cognitive challenges that make judging temperature and air quality difficult.

For many participants, the internal sense of being "too hot" or "too cold" (interoception) can be impaired, leading to distress or physical discomfort without knowing the cause. This device acts as an external sensor, providing precise real-time data on room temperature and humidity. Crucially, it features a simple "Face Icon" comfort indicator. This visual aid allows users to instantly recognize if the room is dry, wet, or comfortable without needing to interpret complex numbers, empowering them to turn on a heater, fan, or dehumidifier independently to regulate their environment.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Sensory Regulation: Assists participants with poor interoception by providing a concrete visual cue that links their physical feelings to environmental data, helping them learn when to adjust clothing or bedding.

• Respiratory Health Management: Monitors humidity levels to prevent the growth of mould (high humidity) or dry air irritation (low humidity), which is vital for participants with Asthma or respiratory vulnerabilities.

• Cognitive Support: The Face Icon system (Happy/Neutral/Sad) translates abstract data into a clear emotional cue, making environmental control accessible for users with cognitive delays or literacy barriers.

• Promoting Independence: Enables the participant to make their own decisions about their room environment based on clear visual feedback, rather than relying on a carer to tell them it is hot or cold.

Key Features & Benefits

• Visual Comfort Icons: Features a simple face display (Dry/Comfort/Wet) that provides an immediate status report on air quality, ideal for non-verbal or visual learners.

• High Accuracy Sensors: Provides professional-grade precision (±1°C temperature, ±2-3% humidity), ensuring that decisions about heating or cooling are based on reliable data.

• Rapid Refresh Rate: Updates readings every 10 seconds to reflect sudden changes, such as opening a window or turning on a shower, allowing for quick environmental adjustments.

• Compact & Clear: The small footprint (approx. 5.6cm x 6.6cm) fits anywhere, while the bold LCD digits ensure the display is legible from a distance for users with low vision.

• Versatile Mounting: Equipped with a magnetic back for the fridge, a tabletop stand for the bedside, and a hanging hole, allowing it to be placed exactly where the participant spends their time.
