Fume Extractor upgraded with Particulate Matter sensor and now running ESPHome

Nice!

Couple of comments:

  1. I think you have the right sensor. Yes they’re a little bulky.
  2. Be thoughtful about the inlet and outlet of the pms sensor. I think they’re designed to have a certain flow rate of air through them (they have an internal fan), so I would avoid interference with that due to the extractor fan air flow…
  3. Might not be so important for you as I guess the sensor isn’t on that large a % of the time, but consider life extension strategies.
  4. You could consider having this as just a stand alone sensor that is always on in the room. Throw some other sensors on there too…
