Zubie smoke detection devices, powered by Bosch, can identify the difference between smoking (cigarette or cigar), vape and other types of smoking activity. Each smoke activity is classified in one of these three options :
Vape: Indicates a non-burning product was smoked, most likely vape or heated tobacco. Recognized by glycol particle density, infrequent puffs and often multiple brief smoking events. Individual events may have relatively low total smoke levels.
Smoke: Indicates smoke from a product that burns, such as cigarettes, cigars or marijuana. Recognized by carbon monoxide and particle density, pattern of smoking and longer duration of a single smoke event with higher total smoke readings.
Smoke or Vape: Carbon monoxide and glycol particles detected confirm smoking of some sort has taken place. The specific classification is inconclusive regarding which type of smoking took place.
The classification for each smoke detected event can be viewed on the Zubie app activity feed and in the Rental Agent Browser Extension.
