Does this eliminate second hand smoke? I share a studio space with a chain smoker who smokes out of our window, but some smoke still gets in our space

Yeah but still have to take single hits at a time n blow into this thing. If you smoking a cig it will still be burning into the air. That's why I like pipes

No, smoke would still be coming off the cigarette. Unless he uses it with his head and his hands out the window. An air cleaning machine, designed to clear smoke from the air, may help. They used to sell smokeless ashtrays, I hope this helps!

I have a roommate that smokes non - stop in the living room, whenever he's home. I turn on The Honeywell QuietClean up to high for about an hour, even though the cigarette odor has disappeared long ago. I usually keep it running on low when I'm home. The Honeywell QuietClean is located in my bedroom.

It's nozzle is smaller than a drum fan but it is super powerful. It's hard to say as I don't know how much smoke you are dealing with or how big your balcony is. Have you tried an air purifier. They are amazing and get rid of cigarette smoke etc. realtors will use them when tryi g to sell someone's house who has smokers. It eliminates the smell. They have a bunch on amazon in different price points. That with a fan would work I bet.

For me, it completely gets rid of the cigarette smoke in my closet coming from a neighbors who is a chronic smoker on the first floor. I live on the third floor and the smoke permeates the entire building, including the units on the opposite side of the building. I was afraid I would have to use the ozone feature, but surprisingly, I use every feature but the ozone 24/7 and it works beautifully. I do use the ozone feature, periodically, but I seal off the door with duct tape while I run it for a day, and then turn it off when I go to bed. It seems to keep moths out of my closet, too. I plan on purchasing another unit for my main living area. For me, it completely gets rid of the cigarette smoke in my closet coming from a neighbors who is a chronic smoker on the first floor.

actually I haven't. I don't smoke and have no pets. Seems that all my filters, walls, and window treatments don't get 'dirty' quickly. If I do need to clean it, I'd check the owner's manual, and if that didn't tell me I'd figure out how to take the guard off and use a Swifter type dusting material.

yes for the most part, it reduces the immediate smell and gets the smell out of the air faster if its in the area of the smoke

Unlike a "vent," this wouldn't remove the smoke from the kitchen or filter out cooking smells; it would just move the smoke to another part of the room. Probably not what you have in mind.

It doesn't smoke so much but I use it in my bathroom while bathroom fan is on and an air purifier, I wouldn't do it with the hood, the reason they ask you to blow dry out out so you can use a round brush in order to get as much humidity out of your hair.

My buddy bought a car for his daughter and the previous owner was a heavy smoker. We sat the ozone generator on the floor and ran it for two hours and let the car sit with the windows closed overnight. We did it again the next day and there is no smoke smell, even when it's very hot out. It did a great job!

We are very happy with the quiet and the dust removal.. AND I can't help with your specific question, we don't smoke and have not had cooking or other smoke.

I agree with Peter. It does work well and diverts the smoke. If you can open a window it would be best. Try it. It's the only model I was pleased with and I used it in my small room. Be safe.

Yes, as long as there is proper ventilation for the smoke you'll be fine. The unit itself does not get hot on the outside, it's contained on the inside and I have used it numerous times in my garage even with the doors open when it has been raining. Shouldn't be a problem.

I do just fine with no window. The window probably gets moist or foggy with the smoke anyways. As long as the the temp is good.

I actually have two, one in each bedroom and a larger one for the living room. My husband smokes and the air is fresher in our house. I don't smell the smoke when I come in like I used to.

Hi Lindsey, I keep my smoker in a storage shed. It eliminates the wind, and your temp will remain constant. Also remember, the air flow limiter on the top should not be kept wide open. This will cause a a large airflow and your internal temp will be affected. Experience will drive how much air flow you allow, and what level of smoke you will get. Good luck. Love my Bradley

Yes it produces smoke. It's a smoker. You are not violating any local ordinances by using a smoker. Your neighbors need to quit complaining.

I added a second heating element right from the git go! I read the Bradley forum for quite some time and got some really great info there. I have also constructed a "shed" on my deck to enclose my smoker. It is mostly for weather protection, and less so to block wind. By installing the second element, getting the smoker "back up to heat" after opening the door, occurs in a blink of an eye! Hope this helps.
