As more cities expand smoke free laws to include vaping, it’s clear that smoking policies are evolving. Dallas recently reported a 23% reduction in smoking and vaping after extending its indoor smoking ordinance to cover electronic smoking devices. For hotels, this reinforces an important reality. Whether it’s traditional cigarettes or vaping, consistently enforcing non smoking policies requires objective evidence and a repeatable process. At Rest, we’re helping hotels do exactly that by providing purpose built smoke monitoring technology that detects both combustible smoking and vaping, helping properties protect guest rooms, recover cleaning costs, and enforce their policies with confidence. An interesting read on the continued evolution of smoke free regulations. https://lnkd.in/gWuTSeKk #Hospitality #Hotels #HotelOperations #HospitalityTechnology #PropTech #SmokeFree #AssetManagement #GuestExperience

For decades, hotels had one primary way of identifying smoking in a guest room: Someone smelled it. Housekeeping became the "human smoke detector." If there was an odor, staff would try to document it, look for ashes or cigarette butts, and piece together enough evidence to determine what happened. But guest behavior has changed. Vaping has become more common. Cannabis laws continue to evolve. And often there's little—or no—physical evidence left behind by the time someone enters the room. 🚭 The old process simply wasn't designed for today's reality. We were recently on The Future Of The Future Podcast where our CRO Michael Linton talked with Mateo Bervejillo about how technology is changing that conversation. Instead of relying on subjective observations after the fact, hotels now have access to objective environmental data that helps them make more informed decisions. It's a fascinating shift—not just in hospitality technology, but in how operations adapt as consumer behavior evolves. 🎤 Listen to the full episode here: https://lnkd.in/gj42vse8

"Most people think of a smoke alarm, like the ones that are in your house. Those are life safety devices, and they work much differently. Those are really equipped to err on the side of caution. They would rather alert you. How many times have you been cooking and you burn a little something, you forget to turn on the exhaust fan, and all the alarms are going off? That's by design. That's on purpose. Our product is kind of the opposite of that, in that we would rather not alert someone. We'd rather have a missed detection than falsely accuse somebody. So we're only alerting hotels when we have the utmost confidence that smoking or vaping took place." Michael Linton! Episode 177 of The Future Of The Future Podcast Enjoy.
