Title: LRAPA conversion better for wildfire smoke than PurpleAir WOODSMOKE conversion?
Post by: coyote2 on July 25, 2021, 03:16:51 PM

I see that since last wildfire season, PurpleAir has added a new WOODSMOKE conversion.  The study talks about wood smoke from heating.

Is the LRAPA conversion still the best one for wildfire smoke?

Edit:  I think the answer may be neither.  I read that the new "US EPA" is the best one for wildfire smoke now (https://thebolditalic.com/understanding-purpleair-vs-airnow-gov-measurements-of-wood-smoke-pollution-562923a55226).
