Vaping detectors are a valuable tool to help combat underage vaping in schools. They are used to detect particulates and gases caused by vaping, as well as monitor air quality. They can be installed in areas that are impenetrable to cameras such as locker rooms, bathrooms and other problem hotspots.
A school or business can benefit from the use of a vaping detector by helping to keep their premises smoke and vapor free. This can help them to improve the air quality and create a safe environment for staff and students. In addition, these devices can help to prevent vaping from happening in sensitive areas such as healthcare facilities, schools and government buildings.
Detecting Vaping: Understanding Vape Detectors
There are a number of different options for a school to consider when purchasing a vape detection device. Some devices will have a combination of particulate and gas sensors, while others will only have a particulate sensor. The best option will likely be one that has both types of sensors as this will provide the most accurate results.
In order to be sure that a vape detection device is working correctly it should be tested in an area that has known to be vapor free (such as a hallway or living room). It should also be tested in the suspected room or location where someone may have been using a vape. If the readings in the room increase, then the sensor has been triggered and someone has been smoking or vaping.
