No. It is OK to remedy smoke in a car but it takes closing the small place up for a while and multiple application. My wife is a travel agent and says there are smoke free rooms - ask for one.

It didn't work for me as it has a very strong odour of it's own that really bothered me. I believe you can get a portable ionizer, that's what I would try and run it in my cabin.

It helped get the cigarette smoke smell out of a used car that had been owned by a smoker. It does leave a residual odor, so you might want to sample it and decide which odor is the worst. I would think it would take quite a bit to treat a stateroom.

Yes it is , I purchased one can for a car I bought 18 months ago ...applied 3 times and it was awesome... a keeper and a must buy !!!

Honestly, I don't think this will work if you leave the window open with smoke entering. I believe it would smell like Febreeze cigarettes. This works best in a small area or a very open area like a living room. I do not recommend this for what you're looking for. Hope this helps

My condo is a non smoking anywhere place, inside and out. However we do have vog from the local volcano (truly--Mauna Loa) and that can be pretty stinky. The air purifier handles this well.

It seems to do a pretty good job at removing many odors... My guess is going to be the key to cigarette smoke is go ahead and buy two extra Hepa filters and wash the charcoal reusable pre filter once a week for the first month or so. Then next how big is the room? You may need to move it around if you have multiple rooms or they are broken up.

Absolutely not to be used indoors. Not only a very smokey process, but use indoors is dangerous.

With Esbit tablets, I wouldn't recommend it. The fumes from those aren't exactly healthy if you let them accumulate, and they smell funky, too.Alcohol, on the other hand, is one of the safest things to burn indoors - the cleaner it is, the better. Pure ethyl alcohol becomes water and CO2 when it burns, neither of which is harmful or smells bad.

Even good home air cleaners like these are only going to be moderately effective when used in a very smokey environment. They will, to some extent, re-radiate whatever they have been filtering. Tobacco smoke is particularly difficult to remove as it permeates all surfaces and absorbent material like clothing, upholstery, drapes etc.

I use mine where smokers have been in rooms it can make it seem better but not perfect. It smells fresher

No it won't. That's exactly the reason I bought mine and it is maybe 10 - 15% better. Like the other person said - maybe if you were to buy several... But a nonsmoker is always going to be able to smell even the lowest level of cigarette smoke. And as a former smoker, even the lowest level seems like too much. I've only had my unit for 2 weeks and the red indicator mark is at the half way mark, so I haven't decided yet what I'll do when it's pegged out. Good luck!

It will absolutely eliminate the smoke smell. You should run it at full power over night when no one is there and turn it to low when you have guests. I would ask the company also. There is nothing else that eliminates odors like ozone. I think you could put it on a timer so that your employees don't spend long periods of time with high levels of ozone. My personal use for this machine is because of a smoker so I know it eliminates the odors. In the days when smoking was allowed everywhere ozone air filters were in every bar!

It will surley help. The only problem is cigg smoke does stick to everything so after a couple months you would need to replace the filter or try and clean it real good with smell remover such as is used for pets and pet urine smells. I used to be a smoker for many years and used it in my office although I smoked outdoors only, could still smell the ciggs on my clothes and office chair, so cleaned mine, on a different model regularly until one day just couldnt remove the smell any longer. Keep the windows and door closed where the smoke comes in as the less in the room the blonger the filter will remain clean. Ciggs should be illegal! More addicting, deadly and smelly than other things! It will surley help.

It should, but I'd suggest not smoking around the products & then storing them in plastic bags stored in plastic bins with tight fitting lids. Non-smokers are just going to be peculiar about that smoke smell. Are the products washable? If so, then most buyers will probably wash the item first.

I highly doubt it. It doesn't work on cigarettes and I'm sure it won't work on mold odors. If you read my review, I bought 7 of these. Waste of money.

No. Unfortunately anything that is contaminated with heavy cigarette smoke will not become smoke free with this product as we sadly found out.

I'm not definite about cigarette smoke (I've never tried it), but i DO know it got disgusting fish oil supplement smell instantly out of my clothes as well as my friend's dog bed odor and her son's foot smell out of the room :-)....so.... I guess your chances are good!!!

It may help with smell if you could "rig" it. Yet you really would want a hepa based system because particles are too small for just plain carbon. I use the carbon in my hepa system.
