Vape Detection for Canadian Schools and Workplaces
From Grade 7 classrooms to busy office towers, Vape Guardian sensors help Canadian school boards and employers spot vaping, THC and over-occupancy in washrooms and other unsupervised spaces, alerting staff in about 5 seconds.
Health Canada’s Canadian Student Alcohol and Drugs Survey (2023–24) found that 15% of students in grades 7 to 12 had vaped in the past 30 days, rising to 27% in Grade 12. Here is how our system helps principals and vice-principals respond.
Prevention, Not Just Detection
Pair sensors with our vaping education course, developed with LifeLab at the University of Southampton, so students understand why the rules on school property exist.
Designed and Engineered in the UK
Our hardware and software are designed in-house by a UK team, so one company stands behind the sensor, the app and the updates your board relies on.

Sensors For Canadian Facilities
Provincial smoke-free laws already set the rules in many Canadian buildings. In Ontario, for example, the Smoke-Free Ontario Act, 2017 bans vaping inside schools, on school grounds and in public areas within 20 metres of them (Government of Ontario, 2026). Vape Guardian helps you enforce the policies you already have.
Trusted by Hundreds of Schools in the UK
Canadian schools can draw on a system already used in hundreds of UK schools, where it monitors washrooms and changing areas without cameras or microphones.
Help keep Canadian workplaces smoke-free and vape-free with discreet sensors that alert facilities staff when the air changes, without recording a word.
They pick up a single puff of vape and send alerts to staff straight away, they're that accurate.
