This Vape Detector Battles Against Vaping, Vandalism, and Bullying in School Bathrooms

With students returning to school after a year of remote and hybrid learning, school administrators are facing vaping, vandalism, and bullying challenges in school bathrooms. Bathrooms are easy to access and typically have no direct adult supervision, inviting unsafe and dangerous activity among students.

Bathrooms have become the most common venue for vaping in school, and students who do not vape must deal with the sight of secondhand clouds that linger and spread particles of aerosol containing nicotine, THC, and other toxic chemicals. Students are also destroying or stealing items, often in school bathrooms, for what many school administrators and police are blaming on a social media trend. Bullying in discreet areas like school bathrooms have been an issue well before the COVID-19 pandemic, but this current environment is not doing many favors to the issue.

As a top priority, public and school officials now recognize the need to preserve school bathrooms to be danger-free zones in the fight against student vaping, vandalism, and bullying. However, staffing shortages have been crushing schools, adding fuel to the fire, so to speak.

There is a vape detector on the market that can identify vaping in privacy areas such as bathrooms, as well as detect other health and security threats. This device can also monitor air quality and detect chemicals, gas, keyword calls for help, loud sounds, and gunshots. The HALO IoT vape and multi-sensor is an ideal solution for educators to take back control and give students their bathrooms back.

HALO can be connected via Ethernet or WiFi and provides real-time detection of a wide range of health, safety and vape sensor readings — all while providing privacy to students. They are an effective and affordable solution, and their visible presence alone acts as a strong deterrent in not only bathrooms, but locker rooms and dorm rooms as well.

IdentiSys is an authorized IPVideo dealer, providing full sales and support to schools nationwide on HALO detectors. With IdentiSys and HALO, you can instill a new sense of safety and privacy for students when they are using bathrooms at school. Contact us today for more information or a quote.
