Vape Detector FAQs

The short answer is yes. But, there are different types of smoke detectors and some are a lot more sensitive to vapour than others, this means not all smoke detectors will detect vape.

Most hotel rooms have sensors or smoke/vape detectors, especially if the hotel has a no-smoking rule. Whether you smoke nicotine or a vape pen, the sensor will detect the particles roaming in the air and alert the hotel management. Only very sensitive smoke detectors are likely to trigger if you are vaping in the room, where as a vape detector will definitely detect any vape usage. The DRS 1000 and DRS 2000 are specifically designed to detect the smallest vape particles and will trigger an alarm which will alert the management to investigate.

Typical coverage is a 12′ x 12′ area with the sensor at a height of 8′, but it does depend on several factors such as room air flow, and where in the room the sensor is placed.

When it detects smoke/vape, it is supposed to alert you. With smoke detectors, the goal is to alert everyone around so they can evacuate. Vape detectors, on the other hand, are designed to be more discreet. This leads to the question of reliability.

Vape detectors are typically installed in public spaces such as hospitals, schools, universities, hotels, and workplaces where smoking and vaping are prohibited. They are also installed in prisons and detention centres to prevent illegal smoking and vaping.

The sensors in vape detectors work by measuring the concentration of specific chemicals in the air. When the concentration of these chemicals reaches a certain level, the detector will alert the user that vaping is occurring.

Vape detectors work by detecting the presence of specific chemicals that are released when vaping occurs. These chemicals include nicotine, propylene glycol, and vegetable glycerin. There are two main types of vape detectors: particulate detectors and sensor detectors. These work very similar to smoke detectors and will provide an alert when someone is vaping in an unauthorised area.

If a vape detector monitors the presence of particulate matter in an enclosed environment, then it would also work with cigarette smoke and cannabis smoke as well. Vape Detectors (PM2. 5 detectors) can measure vapor from e-cigarettes, cigarette smoke, and cannabis smoke.

How discreet are vape detectors, and can they be tampered with? Vape detectors are designed to be discreet and can blend seamlessly into the environment. They are usually mounted on ceilings, walls, or other inconspicuous areas. Vape detectors are tamper-proof and can detect any attempt to remove or disable them.

Installing vape detectors in public spaces can have several significant benefits. These detectors are specifically designed to detect and monitor the presence of vapor from electronic cigarettes or vape devices. By implementing vape detectors, public spaces can experience the following advantages:

• Promoting Health and Safety
• Maintaining a Positive Environment
• Enhancing Fire Safety
• Addressing Legal and Regulatory Concerns
• Improving Public Perception and Reputation
