Take it outside, as long as it measures 400-450 it's probably good.

Metrology calibration is necessary if you want accuracy better than 10%, but most of us don't care at all about that, instead we care about increments of 200ppm or more.

Haha yes. 400-450ppm is fine. We’re doing just fine here. Everything is okay.

Local factors can make your CO2 fluctuate by 200ppm. If you're near a busy road with not a lot of wind 600 ppm is possible. But it's not that important if you open your window at 1000 ppm or 1200 ppm.
