The home I bought, as wonderful as it was, it wasn’t perfect. I didn’t have to know the previous owner to know that they were smoker, it was quite obvious. The home still faintly smelled of smoke, especially the carpet. Once that smoke smell has set in, it is almost impossible to remove. That is, unless you have a whole home media air cleaner. Before I got the whole home media air purifier, I tried every method I could find to remove the smoke smell, but nothing worked. Not air fresheners, air sprays, carpet cleaners and anything else you can think of, the smell remained. I had a friend who heard of my dilemma, and they told me to get an air purifier. Air cleaners are fantastic at removing odors from your home, as well as they improve your indoor air quality. I didn’t really have much to lose, and so I bought an air purifier. I bought it from the local HVAC store down the street. That is where I bought most of my heating and cooling technology. My friend was right, after the air purifier, my home’s smoke smell completely disappeared from the air. Now you really can’t tell the difference between my home and a home that has never had a smoker in it. Really, the only time I ever smell smoke is if I am right up on my carpet, where the smell still has slight residue. It is fantastic to have my home feel and smell great again.
