Cigarette or pipe smoke odor is irritating, and the situation worsens if the smoke is stale and has lingered in your home for long. This can be problematic especially if you would like to sell the home because the smoke particles may get trapped in the paint inside the house, making it difficult to remove the smoke after it’s set.

Why Cigarette Smoke Lingers

Smoke contains tar and nicotine – the two main components that result in a lasting odor. When you smoke from the house, the tobacco smoke leaves a residue of tar and resin on the walls, furniture, fibers, ceiling, bulbs and other items in the house.

How long can Cigarette Smell Last?

Cigarette smoke odor can last between a few days to several months or even years, especially if you are a heavy smoker. How long the odor remains in the house depends mainly on the ventilation of the building and the period smoked inside the house.

Is the smoke harmful?

While the health risk associated with leftover smoke is yet to be fully grasped, health professionals believe that constant exposure to third-hand smoke may pose an increased risk to respiratory conditions, heart diseases, and cancer – due to formation of carcinogens, and other infectious materials.

Does it lower the chances of selling a home?

Absolutely! According to the Realtor Magazine, smoking in a home can lower the resale value of the property by up to 29 percent. If you or the former tenant has frequently smoked inside the home, the house will not only be full of smoke smell, but it will also reveal signs of smoke damage, thus degrading the property value.

 

Over time, pollutants and odors from tobacco and pot smoke as well as pet odors, collect and concentrate on surfaces creating an unpleasant, potentially unsafe indoor air quality condition and could cause significant health risks.

There is recent research from the National Institute of Health who found that these toxic brews, called ThirdHand Smoke, can then reemit back into the air and recombine to form harmful compounds that remain at high levels long after smoking has stopped occurring.  

There are only 3 options:

1 – Ignore this serious problem

2 – Cover it up with standard paint, providing minimal benefit

Solution

Apply a specialty environmental paint uniquely formulated to seal, block, absorb and capture existing odors, fumes and chemical pollutants.

The quickest way to remove lingering cigarette/pipe fumes from your home is to completely block cigarette odor trapped in paint.
