700 is pretty good, what are you on about?

If your sensor recalibratws to a baseline of 400 each day and you have a baseline of 700 that is a drift of 300 ppm per day or ca 100 000 ppm per year.

You see why this is a problem?

It's not going to drift by 300ppm per day - it'll pick the lowest value it saw and assume it was 400ppm. If that happens to be 700ppm every day, then it'll be wrong by 300ppm every day.
