Systems and sensors for detecting vaping or smoking are disclosed. A sensor system for identifying vaping and smoking at a site includes an air sensor located within a return vent of a ventilation system and configured to sense air quality of air conveyed through the return vent, a controller configured to identify vaping and smoking from the sensed air quality based on an air signature, and a network interface configured to communicate an alert indicating the vaping or smoking, when the vaping or smoking is identified.
