HVAC Performance Monitor Smart Kit with Arduino Uno + DHT22
Smart Seed Sprouting with HVAC Performance Monitor Kit (Arduino Uno + DHT22)
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
For Indian gardeners and makers, dry indoor air wreaks havoc on seed germination trays. This kit turns an Arduino Uno and DHT22 sensor into an automatic humidity guardian: when the air drops below your set point, it triggers a relay to activate an ultrasonic mist maker, keeping that tender sprouting environment perfectly moist. No expensive greenhouse controller required.
What You'll Build
A compact bench-top unit with a crisp 0.96-inch OLED display showing live humidity and temperature. The relay output connects to any standard ultrasonic mist module (not included), switching it on when humidity dips below the threshold you program. An active buzzer signals critical lows or faults, and three flyback diodes protect the circuit from relay coil spikes.
What You'll Learn
- Calibrating and reading DHT22 humidity/temperature data with Arduino libraries
- Driving a monochrome OLED via I2C to display real-time sensor values
- Programming threshold-based control logic to toggle a 5V relay
- Adding diode snubbers across inductive loads to prevent microcontroller damage

Who This Kit Is For
CBSE Class 11–12 students exploring sensor integration, B.Tech ECE/EEE undergraduates prototyping smart agriculture devices, ATL Tinkering Lab teams building IoT climate controls, and Smart India Hackathon participants needing a reliable humidity-triggered relay module. If you understand basic Arduino sketches and want a project that actually solves a real household problem, this fits squarely in your skill zone.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Scan the QR code in the box to chat with the AI companion trained specifically for this kit; you can also share photos on WhatsApp for human backup.
Do I need to buy an ultrasonic mist maker separately?
Yes, the kit includes the control electronics (relay, Arduino, sensor). You can use any 5V or 12V ultrasonic mist module widely available online or in local electronics markets.
Can I adjust the humidity threshold without reprogramming?
The initial build uses a fixed threshold in code. The AI companion will show you how to add a potentiometer or serial commands later if you want on-the-fly adjustments.
Will this work for a full greenhouse or just a small tray?
The relay can switch up to 10A, so it can control a larger misting system. The DHT22 placement determines the sensing zone; the circuit itself is identical regardless of scale.
HVAC — DHT22 humidity below threshold triggers relay ultrasonic mist maker for seed sprouting tray.
