Vape Detectors For Schools
Often referred to as Vape detectors, nicotine detection sensors or vapor smoke detectors, they are most commonly purchased by schools, hotels, landlords and businesses to monitor students, employees, and tenants in areas where underage vaping detectors is not permitted. They are capable of detecting a variety of chemicals including THC, CBD, BG, CBN, THCA, nicotine, propylene glycol, and many other volatile organic compounds emitted from vaping. They are also able to differentiate between the vapor from e-cigarettes and tobacco. The sensitivity of these devices can be adjusted to ensure optimal performance in any environment.
Vaping Detectors: Enhancing Safety in Public Spaces
Why Schools Use Vape Detectors
School administrators spend thousands of dollars annually equipping their buildings with vape detection systems to help deter underage vaping. Most of these are installed in restrooms, locker rooms, and other areas where students enjoy privacy from parents/guardians.
While metrics show restroom and locker room vaping has decreased, kids still smoke their vapor and cigarettes in these accessible yet private areas. This is especially true for younger students who get access to e-cigarettes from older siblings. The colorless vapor they produce makes it easy to cover their tracks in the bathroom or locker room.
By combining a smart sensing device with an efficient workflow, these devices can become extremely useful tools for combating underage vaping and managing problematic behavior in bathrooms, locker rooms and other problem hotspots. We recommend that you review the setup of your facilities prior to purchasing these products and discuss with your school administration, IT director, safety team and educators about a plan for monitoring and responding to alerts in real-time.
