I can state that it did a great job keeping out drafts on our kitchen door. Saved on our heating bills. Do not know about smoke!!

I believe so. Smoke detectors detect tiny particulates in the air. Paint and varnish smells have been known to set them off.

Not really. Even when covered it still makes smoke. My solution is to use it just under my kitchen exhaust and then I don't have smoke problems.

Smoke detectors: Yes, but it takes ALOT of smoke to cause that, have fans circulating air in the room and it will help it keep from building up. No to the sticky residue, that mostly depends upon the solution you are using. Stick with the recommended fog and you should be fine, same for food.

Hi, I bought this for cooking. This really works for preventing the smoke. But I don't think I will work for smells.

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.

Hello Randy, No, only if it senses smoke. Thanks. www.FortressSecurityStore.com

I think it might block the bulk of it, but over time I think the smoke would get through.

It should get rid of most odor. For heavy cigarette smoke and tar odors, you may want to do more than one coat.

absolutely not. We use it in the lanaii with a mesh pool cage but we close the doors to the house to keep the smoke out.

Yes, but make sure the door to the room is closed for the unit to work best, and that the room is not too big for the unit's capacity. Also, while this unit will help eliminate smoke particles from the air, it may not help that much with the smoke smell for reasons stated by T. Koo.

It helps since i live in an apartment building. But the door still leeks sound but from what i can tell the product does help a little. make sure your door is not too big for the product when you buy it because when i got it it was just the right size to fit my door.

Yes, I have used it for salmon, steak, vegetables, etc. It does create some smoke in the kitchen. It didn't set off the smoke alarm. I simply opened the window and glass door in the dining area and it cleared. Some people start their meat in the smoker, then transfer to a fry pan or to the oven to finish -- less smoke that way.

I would think so. I used it to seal the door on my smoker which is basically the same thing.

Not really. It's designed to remove allergens. The air goes into the purifier and heats up to 400 degrees to kill spores, bacteria other living organisms. It won't filter smoke.

I use it in an closed in office where there is no smoking but I believe it would. Everyone says the air just smells cleaner in my area.

Negative... when the wood is smoking in the tray.. there is a tremendous amount of smoke..it would set off your alarms as well as those around you. After the smoking process the air in the backyard is somewhat permeated for a week or so...I like it but the neighbors may not. In an apt seting its a NO go!!
