How to get cigarette smell out?

[Gabriel Britt]

I have a 3 bedroom condo that was rented out for 2 years to a tenant. After an inspection, I noticed that there is a strong smell of cigarette smoke. Now they have moved out, but the smell lingered. How do I get that horrible smell out of the place? Is it simply a matter of cleaning the carpets and replacing the air filters? Please let me know if you have experienced this, and what you did to resolve!

Try calling a local restoration company that handles fires. They use an ozone machine for fire units which do an amazing job. It may cost you a few hundred bucks, but it sounds like it will be worth it to you.

Hope this helps and best of luck to you!
