Installation
Tips
Secrecy
One of the keys to a successful installation
of the STEALTH system is to maintain secrecy.
It is crucial that only the minimum number of
staff members be involved in its implementation.
By maintaining secrecy in the location and technology
of the detectors the smokers will not likely
figure out the system’s operation and/or
try to vandalize its components.
Misdirection
The STEALTH system will quickly start to catch
smokers in the act. The smokers will try to
study the bathroom to figure out how they were
caught. We suggest the use of a misdirection
tactic to divert the smokers away from the STEALTH
system. We recommend the simultaneous installation
of inexpensive household smoke detectors in
the bathroom. This can be communicated as the
enforcement device to the smokers. It can also
be easily replaced in the event of vandalism.
Realism
The STEALTH system detectors have amazing coverage.
They can detect up to a distance of 30 feet
and a 200 square foot area. When locating the
detectors it is best to place them where they
can see the most area and/or over the areas
where smokers tend to congregate. Be realistic
that you cannot cover every possible corner
of the bathroom and be willing to accept a 75%
coverage if that is more economical. In addition,
be realistic with the wireless system’s
range. The 1000 feet range may be diminished
by thick walls. For range problems we can provide
repeaters to increase the range.
