Systems and methods for controlling and monitoring Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) devices are described. In some embodiments, a system may include an IAQ component configured to alter the quality of the air entering, leaving, or circulating within a building, a sensor coupled to the IAQ component, the sensor configured to determine a status of the IAQ component, and a transmitter coupled to the sensor, the transmitter configured to transmit an indication of the status to a controller. In other embodiments, a method may include receiving, at a Heating, Ventilation, and/or Air Conditioning (HVAC) thermostat, data from a sensor coupled to an IAQ component configured to alter the quality of the air entering, leaving, or circulating within a building, and determining, by the HVAC thermostat, a status of the IAQ component based upon the data. |

1. A system, comprising:
an Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) component configured to alter the quality of air entering, leaving, or circulating within a building via an HVAC (Heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning) system, wherein the IAQ component comprises a consumable component; a component sensor integrated into the IAQ component, wherein the component sensor is configured to determine an installation status of the consumable component, and wherein the component sensor is further configured to determine properties of the consumable component; one or more airflow sensors configured to determine properties of airflow within the HVAC system; one or more transmitters coupled to the component sensor and the one or more airflow sensors, wherein the one or more transmitters are configured to transmit the installation status of the consumable component and the properties of the consumable component and the airflow properties to a user device; and an application executing on the user device, wherein the application indicates the consumable component installation status and one or more of the properties of the consumable component on a graphical user interface of the user device and wherein the application further infers lifespan information for the consumable component based on the airflow properties. |
