Preschools & nurseries Case Studies
Here you’ll find examples from preschools and nurseries showing how N3 has been used in practice, from entrance zones and indoor air quality monitoring to automated cleaning. The references below are based on previously published material, and all quotations are reproduced verbatim.
Havreneset Kindergarten: Sensors revealed dust, CO₂ and ventilation issues
“One of the kindergarten’s units is an outdoor kindergarten where heating has primarily relied on wood burning. After an IAQ sensor was installed, a significant increase in airborne particulate matter and CO2 levels was detected while the stove was in use. In some cases, particulate matter levels increased by as much as eightfold, and CO2 levels exceeded the recommended limits. This provided clear insight into how wood burning affected air quality, and alternative heating methods, such as a heat pump, are now being considered.
The sensors also detected a fault in the ventilation system in the rest of the kindergarten. The system could only operate at 50 percent capacity, which was not sufficient to ensure optimal indoor air quality. This was confirmed after a week of measurements, and work is underway to repair or replace the system.”

Bjørnebåsen Kindergarten: Drier floors and a warmer changing room
“It’s fantastic not to get our feet wet anymore! We also chose to install N3 Zones in the changing rooms, and it has been worth its weight in gold. N3 Zones reduces noise, makes the space more attractive and inviting, and contributes to greater well-being for everyone. We also focus on environmental protection, and N3 Zones is a green choice that has allowed us to eliminate the emissions associated with collecting and delivering the washable mats we used previously. The cost of N3 Zones was far lower than expected, which played a major role in our decision.”

Norlandia Sten-Tærud Kindergarten: N3 Ready pilot with documented results
“The robot created a cheerful atmosphere in the kindergarten, and best of all, the kindergarten looked cleaner all the time.”
General Manager Morten Kvammen at Norlandia Sten Tærud Kindergarten tested N3 Ready from August 20 to September 17 to improve cleaning quality.
Results:
Cleaning quality improved noticeably, while the cleaning contractor gained more time for other areas.
Drop & Go made it possible for employees to start using the robot without training.
N3 Smart IAQ sensors recorded very low dust levels, well below the thresholds requiring action.
N3 Ready was used for a total of 60.9 hours during the pilot.
“We recommend N3 Ready for all kindergartens. A new and valuable assistant for us.”
Morten Kvammen, General Manager
