No, it's not. You generally want to ventilate an office when you reach 1000ppm, but then the IKEA will often warn you already at 700ppm. 700ppm is fine.

"Generally" is a vibe measurement to begin with. You won't notice any difference at all between 700ppm and 1000ppm. It's once you start hitting 2000ppm you are getting noticeable brain fog.

you assume that the error will always be in one direction

and if sometimes you ventilate a bit sooner than required, at 700, what?

businesses will not put $200 meters in every room

You generally want to ventilate almost continuously, so if a circulation fan kicks on at 700 instead of 1000 that's really not a big deal.

But if I open a window at 700ppm, so what?
