Is there any “green” way to get rid of cigarette smoke coming out of an air conditioner vent?
I’ve been having the same problem, with smoke from a downstairs apt. coming thru the A/C vent and into my apt. The only thing I could figure out to do was to get a portable room A/C and vent it out a sliding glass door in my living room, and not use the building’s A/C or you could get a window A/C. I’m still left with clothing, bedding, carpets and walls that smell. Will try some of the suggestions I’ve read here. This has made me incredibly ill and more chemically sensitive to other odors. I pray for people who smoke as I know that part of my own problem is that I used to be a smoker, and now have some COPD (emphysema). Smoke affects children (as well as adults) in drastic ways: Upper respiratory emergencies (like “croup”), hyperactivity and attention (focusing) problems, irritability and even rage attacks, anxiety, depression, etc., are among but a few of the possible problems.
