Hank, they are trying to keep the cig smoke out, not make their own!


I used that as an example. Anything that can produce a little smoke
will find the problem.

Another thought that was touched on by another poster is the range
vent. When teh range vent is running, it creates a negative pressure,
thereby POSSIBLY pulling air in thru the small cracks and openings
from the wall.

For a 100% sure fix................ buy a house and not a apt./
condo. :-)

Actually, it IS a house--in NYC, many houses are attached or
semi-attached. Ironically, we moved from a condo apartment (we
sometimes had problems with noise there, but not smoke).
