Is it good for smoke. 0.3micron particles are the smallest. Smoke is this. Trying to get rid of second hand smoke in my closet.

It lets off small amounts of ozone "good for odors, bacteria, and drying the air" so yes will get rid of and "bleach" odors from the air. It has negatively charged metal filters that particulates stick to, which it uses negative ions for which actually makes any particles that escape get very heavy and attract other particulates then fall to the ground rather quickly. so in other words-Yes it will get rid of the second hand smoke from the clothes, make them smell freshly laundered, no stale or unfresh scent, and bacteria + bugs= non-existent!

If the answers here are correct, then the description is misleading by saying it traps the smoke. Now I'm wondering if there's a point in keeping it.

No it is not. I bought after reading some reviews saying it works good for smoking.It does filter some of the smoke if you blow the smoke right into the unit. HOWEVER the room and house will still smell like smoke. Not a smoke eater. I wasted the money on this

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.

I would not recommend this for that type of smoking. It's designed for a cold smoke rather than a hot smoke. Flavor, not cooking.

Yes, though I think the .5 to 2.5 micron range is only for the pro version. For mine, small particles are 1-5 microns, large is > 5.

I don't know for sure. I use them for fine wood dust in my woodworking shop. If memory serves, smoke is muchsmaller particles, so you may need a different filter.

Works fine in temps up to 100F in my case I'm scrubbing air dense with smelly smoke at times in my storage building which happens to be the only smoke friendly place on the block. Too bad it doesn't have AC. But no odor lingers.

A company representative informed me that it filters 100% of that particles. Their website says "99%" of particles. Another company representative said that it was "under 1 micron."

I use the regular size one - there are just 2 of us too. It works just fine for small amounts (such as a couple of pieces of salmon). This weekend I smoked a brisket in it for about an hour, then switched to the oven. It was delicious - and it never would have fit into the mini. If you have the storage space by all means give yourself the flexibility of the regular size smoker

Amaz n smoker sells one for the dust I believe. Mine is for the pellets and works great.

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 find it works best using chips in combination with some small chunks. The smoke seems to last longer that way.

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.

Probably. I've never used it on smoke but I did talk to a contractor who uses an ozone generator in buildings to clean up odors. Just make sure you don't directly breath the fumes. The ozone initially has a strong rain like smell but after the smell dissipates, everything smells fresh.

We cannot Answer this question directly, because, We do not Smoke in this House any Longer. The Quality of the Air with regards to Ion's & Molecules in the Air & Purifying does Seem Better. The Best Solution would be to turn one Small area or a room into a smoke area & begin testing the Product in this One Area or Room. All Smoke REGARDLESS is HARMFUL Period. Smoke coming INTO the Body or Around the Body is very Harmful to the Lungs & Skin of a HUMAN Being. Sincerely, CPT Scott.

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
